On February 1st, Facebook officially killed all app profile pages. However, what they left behind was a confusing and difficult way for users to add their app tabs to their pages. What use to be a simple click is now, create a new HTML page with specific code and then format your URL a specific way replacing […]
Who loves DropBox and who wants more free space? Well everyone that uses DropBox of course. And who has cataloged the contents of their house for insurances purposes? Probably not many. Turns out, that you can do both right now. DropBox is beta testing a new version of their Android app that auto syncs photos […]
Did you see Twitter’s awesome recruiting video? I have to say, it got my attention because it’s cheesy awesome. http://youtu.be/vccZkELgEsU While listing open jobs, I noticed that they are even hiring a unicorn slayer. Now I think that may be illegal, with them being endangered and all, but you don’t find that job to many places. I think I’m going to stay […]
It seems like everyone is on Facebook these days. I have high school friends, co-workers, relatives and even my mother in-law follows my updates. However, I don’t always want to share everything with everyone. That’s why there are Facebook lists. Lists are a way of organizing your friends into groups; or circles if anyone uses Google+. You […]
This past Tuesday marked my one year anniversary at The Nerdery. It’s hard to believe it’s been a year, and it’s also hard to believe how much I’ve learned. When I started I was a little nervous. It was my first time starting a new job in 6 years. I was excited though as it […]

Have you ever wondered how blind people surf the web or have you ever stopped to take the visually impaired into consideration when designing or building a site? Probably not. I believe that most web developers don’t think too much about the visually impaired. We focus more on the design and functionality and what we […]
When building a Facebook application tab, Facebook gives you a great function called FB.Canvas.setAutoGrow (formally FB.Canvas.setAutovsize) that allows for the Facebook iFrame to automatically figure out how tall it should be to incorporate all your content. As you switch between pages in your app, it continues to grow as needed.i The downside is that it […]
I’m really liking MIUI on my Android, but I had a hard time setting my default ringtone. Seems that you need to set it in your theme’s settings, not your systems settings. Go to your themes app, edit theme, select ringtone and save. Seems a bit backwards to me, but it works!
Who doesn’t love the idea of Goolge+? It’s a social network, from Google, that ties into your Google life. It’s got a pretty easy to use interface, does a great job at grouping friends, has video and audio chat built-in and can automatically upload every picture you take from your Android phone into the system.
