Nofelet is back!
I have just resurrected my german phone numer backward search widget Nofelet. It now works with the new das-oertliche website and has a "show map" button.

Yesterday Apple announced, that (contary to what Steve Jobs SAID) the iPhone will not support 3rd party applications. If you want to write anything for the iPhone, you will have to use HTML and JavaScript.
I have been a web developer for the last eight years and I do not consider this bad news, because I believe today almost anything can be done with JS&HTML. The only one thing missing from most browsers is persistent offline storage. Cookies can and will be deleted by the user at any time and offline-storage is not available when your iPhone can't get a connection to your carrier.
This is where Google Gears comes in. A Safari version is already available for the latest builds and porting it to the iPhone will (probably) not be that complicated. You get access to a full SQLite database from JavaScript and it can even store elements like images, HTML and .js files.
Porting Goolge Gears to the iPhone will make your AJAX applications REAL iPhone apps. Let's hobe Apple and Google consider this option. I am sure they already discussed that and "no SDK needed" would still be true in a way.

I just wanted to let you know that I am still actively developing manThor, but I have a lot of work that needs to be done for my Job. I'm sorry, if it takes some time until manThor is out. I might be releasing a small sideproject soon though.

Another da... we... month another screenshot
manThor Progress & a little freeware tool called QuickPass
manThor is pretty far along already. I am thinking about a VERY cool feature right now, but I will probably implement that for version 1.1 or something. 1.0 will be out soon. I am sure.
Right now I can offer you QuickPass, a little password generation tool for the menu-bar, which I made primaryly for myself, but then decided to polish it and release it as freeware. You can download it from SourceBricks. Have fun!
