			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-210" title="webclipicon" src="http://www.adrianthompson.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/webclipicon.png" alt="webclipicon" width="57" height="57" /></p>
<p>I said a while ago that this year would be the year to do some serious programming in the form of <a rel="nofollow" title='Original Link: http://www.apple.com/uk/iphone/'  href="http://www.adrianthompson.net/?UzkCncGo"  target='_blank'>iPhone</a> development and while this is still the case I&#8217;ve not got very far (Yeah Yeah I know).  What I have managed to do is dip my toe in the <a rel="nofollow" title='Original Link: http://www.apple.com/uk/iphone/'  href="http://www.adrianthompson.net/?UzkCncGo"  target='_blank'>iPhone</a> development <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">pond</span> ocean in the form of Dashcode, and while not technically coding (it uses existing web technologies to produce dynamic web apps), it has allowed me to start with an idea for an application which I hope to development into a full blown native <a rel="nofollow" title='Original Link: http://www.apple.com/uk/iphone/'  href="http://www.adrianthompson.net/?UzkCncGo"  target='_blank'>iPhone</a> app.</p>
<p><img class="size-full wp-image-211 alignright" title="photo" src="http://www.adrianthompson.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/photo.jpg" alt="photo" width="320" height="480" /></p>
<p>The idea for <a title='Original Link: http://www.sheffcam.com'  href="http://www.adrianthompson.net/?tUh0hT22"  target='_blank'>SheffCam</a> came to me whilst viewing the <a title='Original Link: http://www.sheffield.gov.uk/roads-and-transport/travel-information/traffic-cameras/camera-list'  href="http://www.adrianthompson.net/?AsTPL5Fm"  target='_blank'>Sheffield City Council</a> traffic cams which cover 34 sites in and around the city.  Although really useful they arent much good if you are out and about and want to see what the traffic is like for your journey home. Viewing the councils website on the <a rel="nofollow" title='Original Link: http://www.apple.com/uk/iphone/'  href="http://www.adrianthompson.net/?UzkCncGo"  target='_blank'>iPhone</a> is possible but a pain as it requires lots of zooming in and out and downloading of superfluous data.  Hence the need for a streamlined <a rel="nofollow" title='Original Link: http://www.apple.com/uk/iphone/'  href="http://www.adrianthompson.net/?UzkCncGo"  target='_blank'>iPhone</a> compatible version of the site.</p>
<p>After approaching <a title='Original Link: http://www.sheffield.gov.uk/roads-and-transport/travel-information/traffic-cameras/camera-list'  href="http://www.adrianthompson.net/?AsTPL5Fm"  target='_blank'>Sheffield City Council</a> they were interested in an <a rel="nofollow" title='Original Link: http://www.apple.com/uk/iphone/'  href="http://www.adrianthompson.net/?UzkCncGo"  target='_blank'>iPhone</a> version of the site and I was given the go ahead to use the camera images in my development.</p>
<p><a title='Original Link: http://www.sheffcam.com'  href="http://www.adrianthompson.net/?tUh0hT22"  target='_blank'>SheffCam</a> is in early development (beta) and doesnt have all the features I&#8217;d like included but I&#8217;ve decided to release it to get feedback from potential users.  Please leave suggestions, bugs and feature requests in the comments below.  In the meantime please feel free to take a look at <a title='Original Link: http://www.sheffcam.com'  href="http://www.adrianthompson.net/?tUh0hT22"  target='_blank'>SheffCam</a> on your <a rel="nofollow" title='Original Link: http://www.apple.com/uk/iphone/'  href="http://www.adrianthompson.net/?UzkCncGo"  target='_blank'>iPhone</a> or iPod touch.</p>
<p>Enjoy <img src='http://www.adrianthompson.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ever get the munchies during work time? ever wish there was an easy way to get a healthy snack while your sat slaving over your keyboard?  Well <a title='Original Link: http://www.graze.com/'  href="http://www.adrianthompson.net/?bWlXGOMP"  target='_blank' rel='nofollow'>Graze.com</a> has the answer.</p>
<p>This fantastic new online service will send you a box of fresh snacks right to your door. From fruit to nuts the choice is astounding and you get to choose what and when they send it using the very intuitive and well thought out website.  Don&#8217;t like something then just let them know using the food selector and you wont be sent it again.</p>
<div id="attachment_165" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 490px"><img class="size-full wp-image-165" title="Graze Box" src="http://www.adrianthompson.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/5703215.jpg" alt="5703215" width="480" height="640" /><p class="wp-caption-text">My First Graze Box</p></div>
<p>I tried the service out or the first time today and was very impressed as were my colleagues, the packaging designers have gone to town on the whole look and feel of the box you really feel like your getting a quality product.  As for the contents they come vacuum sealed for freshness and include a personalised nutritional guide for the contents of your box&#8230;. verdict? very tasty.</p>
<p>How much does this service cost I hear you say? £2.99 (delivered) a box which, considering what you get, is great value for money. For an even better deal use the code <strong>GM2VXZQC</strong> <a title='Original Link: http://www.graze.com/'  href="http://www.adrianthompson.net/?bWlXGOMP" title="Graze.com"  target="_blank">when signing up</a> to receive your first box <strong>FREE</strong>.</p>
<p>Grazing has never been so easy or healthy.</p>
