Comment on Using the iPod Touch or iPhone to read ebooks by Johan

@jericho
For iCHM you can upload CHM ebooks to your iPod Touch via Wi-Fi.
For Stanza you can download tens of thousands of free ebooks via the free Stanza app. You can also organize them on your computer via the Stanza desktop and then upload them via Wi-Fi. Via the Stanza desktop you can convert a variety of ebook formats into the ePub format, used by Stanza.
For PDF’s I started using Discover. You can upload the files via Wi-Fi and it has a good build in PDF viewer.
All 3 apps are available in the iTunes store. Stanza, Discover and the lite version of iCHM are free. Once you have the apps on your iPod Touch or iPhone it will become clear how to add books.
Hope this was helpful.

I am looking forward to receiving the BeBook Letto next week that I ordered from Adlibris for 1495 SEK. A very good deal indeed. This was one of the best reviews of the BeBook I have ever read. Nice work!

Comment on Installing Zend Server CE on Ubuntu by perry

another way to deal with the

“SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] Can’t connect to local MySQL server through socket ‘/tmp/mysql.sock’ (2) ”

issue

is to do a

sudo ln -s /usr/local/zend/mysql/tmp/mysql.sock /tmp/mysql.sock

however, i would like to point out…

that i just this week, got my Zend Server CE working with my Eclipse on my 27 inch Imac…

and i NEED to be able to trace debug!

it’s just the way i operate

so…..

i don’t know

all i know is that Zend made it *so* easy for me to setup…

so i won’t be wasting anytime HIGHLY recommending Zend to my future clients!

I’ve never seen a work environment (Zend, Php 5.3, Mac Leopard OS X 10.6, MySQL, Apache) work so well, so quickly, so intuitively….

i’ve been doing C++ and Java for almost two decades…

and from where I am sitting

PHP is the way to go!

Hi Johan,

Could you please upload more screen shot for your Bebook?
I am more concern about the result while reading those network diagram from Cisco pdf.

Appreciate. Thanks!

@PRS700 Looking at the abundance of apps, there probably are direct transfer possibilities, but I haven't needed one yet. I only have to transfer files (apart from apps, music, audiobooks, ... via iTunes) occasionally so using wifi doesn't bother me.
