Jott is a mind boggling cool technology. I’m currently posting to my blog by calling a phone number and having it transcribe everything and stick it into a blog post. The future is here and man it’s really damn cool. listen

I jailbroke my iPhone 3G as soon as the iPhone Dev Team had posted their tool to do so, and ever since, I’ve been screwing about with the command line. There’s something deeply appealing to my inner nerd about having Unix on my phone, and recreational command line hacking is more fun for me than many of the games available for iPhone.

The one thing missing on my journey to mobile nerdvana was zsh, my favorite shell. Cydia had a zsh package available as soon as Pwnage Tool 2.0 came out, and I promptly installed it. Unfortuanately, though I was able to run zsh from the command line, I couldn’t figure out how to set it as the default login shell.

WordPress for iPhone is finally out, which gives me the opportunity to post random stuff from wherever I’m standing, assuming I’m standing within range of AT&T’s wireless system.

This is the kind of thing I’ve wanted for years, and though there have been ways to do this for some time now, they’ve all been too clunky, expensive, or both for me to stay interested in them too long.

I can even include pictures right from the phone, which might never get old:
