Push Messengers for iPhone

Matthias — Fri, 26 Feb 2010 09:25:57 +0000

I’ve tested several push messengers like Ping! and Pushme.to over the past few days. Finally I tried Push Inbox which offers the best feature set for my needs: web > iPhone, mail > iPhone, iPhone > iPhone and it’s possible to even answer web und mail sourced messages from my iPhone if a sender mail address is given. Up to 10 aliases like myname@getpushinbox.com can be used. Lifetime subscription is 0,79€ or 0,99$ at the moment. The Push Inbox app itself is free.

Besser bewerben leicht gemacht

Ich hab da gerade ein bißchen geschmökert, und das ist echt ein gutes Angebot: selbstsicher-bewerben.de. Da wird Bewerbungscoaching und psychologische Beratung angeboten, und es gibt sogar Rabatte für Leute, die wenig Geld haben (also z.B. für Studierende, Arbeitslose oder Auszubildende). Für Leute, die Unterstützung suchen beim Bewerben, oder die sich gezielt auf ein Vorstellungsgespräch vorbereiten wollen, ist das echt eine gute Hilfe.

Etymotic hf2 got a new plug

Today I received back my package from Etymotic Research via UPS. About 3 weeks ago I mailed them my Etymotic hf2 headphones for warranty repair. They had some cabling problems close to the plug making one channel failing entirely after one year of use.

Inside the package I found a brand new pair with original wrapping and all the accessories. It seems to be cheaper to exchange them for new ones instead spending time to fix them. Nice one for me.

First thing I’ve noticed was a different plug. It seems I wasn’t the only one who had the problem and they have a new revision on the market.

Below are photos of the old and new plugs. The new one look much more solid to me.
