Our iPad
Finally, i bought an iPad for my company. First of all, the size and weight. That is not too heavy to bring and too small to use. That is a perfect size to bring around. Also, that is bigger than iPhone. This form factor is more suitable to use productive apps, such as time tracker and accounting software. Plus that is very thin too!
In addition, the soft keyboard is very good and responsive too!
Moreover, although the screen is not retina, that is still very sharp. You can have a look on the photo above. Lastly,for battery life, it can last for a week.
Well, there is only one weakness. It uses lighting cable. That is different from other iPad. As far as i known, not many accessories support that Overall, that is quite good.
Considering to buy iPad-mini
We have started the development of our iOS apps development. But we have not got a test machine yet. So, we Our first choice is iPad-mini. Because we believe that is value for money. That is only around $300, which is cheaper than iPhone 5. I have played around. It is very lightweight and very responsive too! I love it. I believe that will be popular. It is a good choice to be a build target!
BUMP- The new way to share file
There are many ways to share files between mobile devices such as drop box, GDrive and even BlueTooth. Those method will use email or device to pair up for sharing files. But I found there is an interesting way to pair up the devices. After I installed BUMP, as its name, a device bumps to other device, then two devices are paired. Finally, they can share files and contacts. I think it uses the GPS to track the location of device. If two devices have a same location, then they will be paired up, that is a very smart way to GPS. This app is available in Android and iPhone.
The best way to built a numeric input field in HTML
I found the best way to input a numeric value is using a spinner. The users can type in the user, and they can use up and down arrow to adjust the value. That is very good user experiences. There is a similar component in WinForm, but there is not such input html field for web. Luckily, JQuery offers a solution for this purpose. It can convert a text field into a numeric field. You need to call this javascript
Code
$("#numeric").spinner() |
Please go to JQuery.ui.spinner website for further information
Facebook - New Version in Android
Today, my facebook app in android got updated. In this version, the speed is improved a lot!!! Moreover, it changed notifications, friends and message windows into a tab, rather than a popup window. That is easier to read. I love this version! That is very cool! I suggest to get it upgraded as soon as possible!!!
