episode 4 of messa.tv

We began the show with a quick explanation of what happened with the special episode of messa.tv covering the DenDen Town Street Festa and we promised to go back some time in the near future.Hiro mentioned that I finally succumbed to giving Apple and Softbank some of my hard earnt Yen by switching over to the iPhone. We talked about the recent OS3.0 announcement (we forgot all about the possible tethering feature) and some of our favourite apps. They were AppSniper, mBox Mail and Skype.Our next news was about the lovely cake cafe that opened up under us, and the web cam I got.Next, I introduced some of my favourite podcasts for web developers and designers. They were stackoverflow, css-tricks (video) and boagworld. On a related note, there was IE8 coming out of beta, and now is part of our 18 web browser test suite. I reveal which IE I use, but I forgot to mention that our test suite is powered by VirtualBox. Check it out, it is free equivalent of Parallels or VMWare and is by Sun of Solaris and Java fame. Available for Mac, Windows or Linux.Lastly we talked about two really great bits of WordPress news, the first is that we have implemented user specific admin languages with tam-mothertongue. Thank-you Miyoshi-san for helping us and many others. The second is that we are attending WordCamp meet-up taking place in Osaka, as I understand it, it isn't a full WordCamp but Matt should be there along with other WordPress enthusiasts and developers.As usual if you enjoyed the show please tell your friends, or digg or delicious us. We are also glad to receive emails or comments! See you in episode 5!
