Great episode as always!
I bought iFootyPlus last week. I was using iFooty before.
The goal alerts feature is great, although it can take a couple of minutes to alert you and if you have the radio/tv on you already know the score..but good nevertheless.
Half time and full time notifications are going to be added too. They are also looking at adding goal scorer’s name to push
RE: The exploding ipods and Apple customer service – nothing surprises me after your (Elaine’s) iMac problem. I wonder which store it was? LOL
Great tips again in this weeks show
Charlie
I love iFooty and iFooty Plus. Just come back from walking the dog and was able to follow the game this afternoon. Push for goals is cool too
I nearly got as excited as Elaine when I heard you say that BusyCal allowed you to print weeks spanning adjacent months and I thought “Yes, i’ll buy this app” but then I found that you can’t publish/share calendars with other iCal users, without the complication of Google Calendars. Please tell me I am missing something here!
Cheers
