Spent a nice couple of hours poking and playing around with the phone, even though I’ve had the updated software for a while. I happened to stumble on this nice little tip this afternoon and it worked perfectly. Try it out. It’s great for taking any photo, from any source online and making it your wallpaper.

Just testing the iPhone Wordpress app. It’s been a breeze thus far. I sailed right through the setup and am publishing this with relative ease. Kind of interested to see how the auto-correction function screws with people’s perception of how well or poorly I write. ;)
