iBlog custom style sheets


Can't believe I forgot to mention this. iBlog 1.x saves custom style sheets in .sxml format rather than .css format. The workaround is simple.

Alarm Sounds


For years I have depended on my Palm to wake me up. Playing with Tech Sounds though, and it seemed like the sounds didn't have enough "oomph" to penetrate my sleep addled brain. The Ship's Whistle, so distinctive on my m515, wouldn't twitch an eye on TiXi. So I have had to experiment.

Turbocharge your contact software


I've got a minor case of Asperger's Syndrome. It's not a big deal, but it does mean I tend to obsess easily and unless I really pay attention, I forget the social niceties and the things that are important to other people. So, I developed ways to compensate, and that started with my Rolodex and Daytimer. These days I use a Palm, but the ideas remain the same. With a little bit of effort and discipline, you can make yourself look good by keeping information at your fingertips.

Business memos in the date book


I use DateBk5 as my central Palm application, this is where I keep all my information. Of course I have DateBk5 set to integrate my To Do list into one display. With PhoneMagic, I can put brackets <> around contact names so I can instantly call up contact info without exiting DateBk5. But that is only part of my bag of tricks. With a little bit of effort, I can link memos and emails so they are accessible from the DateBk5 application.

Securing your thumb drive


No doubt about it, thumb drives are one of the easiest ways yet to do a sneakernet. Beats the heck out of floppies. Until I get a Bluetooth Palm with a big memory card, it's the easiest I'll have access to.

This is one of those tricks that I thought everyone knew, but someone saw me do it and was amazed.

The problem with a thumb drive is that any computer that can recognize it can also access the files on it. But there is an easy fix, at least on a Macintosh running OS X.

Another Palm trick


I'm not sure about the new OS devices, but Palms running 4.x and below are restricted on the number of categories they can have. The desktop software has no restriction and on the Mac side at least allows for two categories per entry. The question is how do you work around this distinction?
