Submitted TypeLess v1.0 to the AppStore for approval on 2010-05-05, happy to get v1.0 shipped.

There are still things to fix, but sometimes you have to publish it and work on the next release.

Really simple tip, if you use Apple’s iCal (or Outlook, but I have not tested it see UPDATE) and want to import events from Facebook, simply click on the Export button above the RSVP box.

When asked to Open or Save, open it with iCal and it should prompt you which calendar to add the event too.

UPDATE: Outlook 2003 displays an error ‘Cannot import vCalendar file. Could not complete the operation. One or more parameter values are not valid.’ More current versions might work.

Also, you might consider adding alerts to these events once they have been exported to iCal.

Ever since I moved in, my apartment door always slammed shut. Recently I had a neighbor ask me ‘Why I slammed my door?’ I shrugged and explained that it was the door closer, not me.

Well guess what, you can adjust the closer. Shocking, I know.

Most closers have two screws, one adjusting the ‘sweep’ the other the ‘latch’ pressure. The sweep is the stage where the door is wide open and the latch is the last few inches, before hitting the latch.

I had to adjust my latch screw, which was the bottom one in the picture. Some closers are labeled, mine wasn’t, so I guessed.

Turning the screw in slowed the door’s speed, turning the screw out increased the speed.

Now no more slamming doors and upset neighbors.
