For the last 136 days, I’ve posted an iPhone photo on the internet just about every day. Where I’ve missed the occasional day, I’ll post its photo the day after, but more often than not, I take a photo and publish it to Flickr on that day. It started out as an experiment, posting a photo to Twitter using twitpic, but it soon became clear that this was not an ideal solution whereby I switched to Darkslide, as described here. At first, I didn’t make too much of a song and dance about it as I didn’t know how many days I would last before giving up.

Firstly, rather than make this a review of the ssh clients available out there, I’ve decided to stick with the client I bought: iSSH. Reasons for buying this one over the others? It does well in comparisons/reviews and it’s available in the UK. Go read the reviews linked as they do what I’d have done better than I would have done it.

I just picked up the domain immobile.me for fun. The problem is, I don’t know what to do with it. Do you have any good ideas? If so, please plop a comment below. Oh, and if you can think of anything to do with plook.net while you’re at it, I’d appreciate it.
