Other Windows

  • Fog Creek’s excellent Copilot remote assistance tool has gone to Version 2 and is now available for Mac OS X. The Windows version works in almost all circumstances – there’s no fiddling with firewall settings, ports etc. Provided that the person you’re trying to help doesn’t have a totally screwed computer, it works fine.
  • On 31 January Vodafone is going to launch a Mobile Web Portal, named Betavine. Users will be able to download and test applications, interact in forums and blogs. Developers will be able to create projects and host applications. Sounds interesting, but I fear that the evolution of the mobile web – which I just like to call ‘the internet’ – will make this venture obsolete in, oh, about 9 months.
