Comment on Hacking my body with the Wii Fit by help me lose weight

help me lose weight — Tue, 02 Mar 2010 20:19:55 +0000

When I was overweight and needed to lose about 30 pounds, I turned to Chimaenterprises.com and I lost it in about 4 months. As I was losing the weight I was feeling good in the same time, not sluggish like I used to feel on other programs I’ve been on. And yes, I have been able to keep it off now for the last 3 years and haven’t felt better. They have great weight loss programs and products. If anyone is serious about losing weight, I definitely would recommend their stuff. It worked for me, I’m sure it will work for you as well.

Super – “Rocket Surgery Made Easy” was on my to-buy list, but it’s good to hear it’s worth the money before going and buying it.

Glad you enjoyed it.

Further to this, earlier this month I bought Steve Krug's second book "Rocket Surgery Made Easy", which is a little more involved than his first, and covers usability testing in depth. Consider it another recommendation. ;)

Comment on Ten Word Moo Card by EY

Moo is an absolutely terrible company. Their software is prone to plenty of errors and trying to get the company to rectify the mistake is pure h*ll. Go elsewhere for cards, or any other printed matter – there are much better companies out there with better quality and better prices.

Hi Neil,

thanks for the hint. But on my iPhone (OS 3.1.2) it does not work. It says "Safari cannot load this file".

Oh well, I see. It works with the "standard"-mail-app. But not when I read the web-mail via Safari.

Oh man, didn't thought this causes so much trouble. Thanks, Neil, for providing this solution. Stefan

Thanks for the info, Neil! Was just beating my head about this and now you've offered a workable solution. :) Hopefully the companies making phone software will realise that people do actually get files from a browser in such a way and support it better.

I've been trying to solve this problem for a while - with no solution. A couple of companies use the solution you highlight in your blog, but surely.. there must be a way to do this?!

If you find anything, I would love to hear from you!

Comment on Using WordPress’s “Upgrade Automatically” Feature by Neil Crosby

Hi Shahid. Do you have the ability to ssh into your servers? If you can, then this is where you'll perform the chown commands. If not, ask your server admins if they can enable FTPS access for you so that WordPress can update itself that way.
