As some of you might have noticed, we launched a new blog section here at EverythingiCafe. So what's the difference between the news found on the homepage and the blog? Simply put, the blog allows us to introduce new writers to the site and expand our coverage. Without getting too much into detail, the existing method of posting news was not very straightforward and didn't support a multi-writer format.

The blog component changes all of this. In the interim, you'll find the major news stories gracing the homepage. The blog will focus on smaller stories and will be updated more often. The blog allows us to expand our writing staff and our coverage. Over time, I expect the blog will converge with the homepage news, however we have a few technology hurdles to get over before that can happen. In the meantime, please accept my apologies for the fractured content delivery. I'm hopeful this will be resolved sometime in September.

Without further ado, I'd like to introduce the first writer to join team. Marianne, known in these parts as macgirl, will be a regular contributor to the EverythingiCafe blog. I've been a fan of her writing and I'm thrilled to have her on the team.

Expanding Our Staff

If you are interested in writing for Everything iCafe, we'd like to hear from you! If it's a one time "How to Guide" or a daily column, we are looking for volunteers to contribute to the site in our efforts to offer expanded coverage of the iPhone. This could lead to a paid position over time. Interested parties should use this contact form. Please include a brief overview of your experience, level of interest (daily, bi-weekly, one off article) and topics you'd live to cover. Please do not PM me regarding this position.

You can jailbreak your iPhone using ziphone. It is the easiest and safest way to jailbreak your iPhone. Download, install, open, click "jailbreak", wait 35 seconds and you're done.

One jailbreaked, you will find apps under "Installer", a new icon that will be on your springboard. Open Installer and browse for apps you want to install.

Install, try and if you don't like the app, simply uninstall.

Well, seb, I wouldn't go that far. You may want to take a look through this sub-forum and note any postings regarding applications that you should be aware of. I RARELY ever install an application before I hear some reviews on it. I'm glad I did my research too, because a month ago or so Kate looked very tempting to install and well....

You're right. Like you, I always google the name of the app I'm interested in and look at some feedback. I also always search for the app name in EIC.

Not sure if there is a site where you can view everything in Installer.

Besides, once Installer is installed on your iphone, you usually have to add new sources. A source is an application provider, like a hub for distributing apps, if that makes sense.
