Dolphin HD for the iPad
Looking for a better way to view the Internet on an iPad? I have been! Safari on the iPad is just not cutting it today. Finally, a new browser for the iPad has arrived, Dolphin HD.
Dolphin HD has been around for Android devices and has ranked consistently as one of the top ten apps in reviews. Now you will see Dolphin as a top ten ‘must have’ for Apple mobile devices. The browser is so much more intuitive and functional than Safari. Try Dolphin for yourself and compare it with Safari. The video is Dolphins HD promo.
UPDATE 11/18/11: The release of iOS 5 for the iPhone and iPad have made significant improvements to Safari. The best feature included in this release is the introduction of browser tabs. This makes Safari on the iPad more like its bigger brother on the desktop. If you are like me, I browse the Internet like a mad person. I will have as many as 10 web sites on my tabs at one time. Now I can easily navigate between sites on my iPad as I do on my laptop. I still like Dolphin, but the improvements to Safari have made it a much better iPad web browser.
Working all night researching and did the natural thing at one point, type Google.com in the web address bar. What popped up? This nice blue arrow on the page showing me the way to

ShortStop FF Draft Results
Another year of football and another fantasy football draft result for Gumps Gators. Let’s hope that my Sunday’s are more entertaining than they were last year. The league commish owns Short Stops Market on S. Orange Ave, Sarasota and has been a good friend to see when I take a walk a mid-afternoon walk.
Any thoughts on Gumps Gators roster for the start of the season?
Quarterbacks:

Okay, I have been absolutely overwhelmed with projects lately and the results is the lack of activity on this blog. We launched two major products releases in the last 8 weeks, a mobile web app and over 600 individual real estate Agent web sites utilizing the WordPress platform. The team has produced some really cool products, plus, support all the side bar activity that an IT department must contend with day in and day out.
What does all this mean? Yes, it means a little less activity here on DavidGumpper.com. With that said, this week one of the team members came across a new 404 Page Not Found on a major site.

Talk Suncoast interviews David Gumpper. Yes, this was my first ever radio interview. I was completely surprised on how much fun and interesting to participate on a radio show. I was nervous at the beginning, but was able to flow with the conversation as it developed through the show. I would absolutely do it again and am looking forward to be asked back to the show again.
Thanks goes out to Talk Suncoast’s Sherwin Baldwin and Susan Nilon for a great time and making me feel comfortable on the airwaves.
Listen to the show and offer some feedback on my performance. I know I can do better, but would appreciate any good constructive criticism.
Cheers!! DG

When I open my browser, the first thing to do after the home page loads is, to create new tabs to open a standard set of web sites. These sites could be the company’s website, a personal website, web email client, a couple of standard blogs that I read, and a few others. How nice would it be if once a browser is open, multiple tabs are automatically initiated to the different sites? No more typing or clicking on bookmarks.
Yeah, it would be nice, right!
Well, this is easily accomplished with Microsoft Windows Internet Explorer 8 (IE8), Mozilla Firefox, and Google Chrome. Apple Safari is a little more complex, but it is doable. The instructions below give how to set up these browsers for Microsoft Windows 7 and Apple’s Mac OS X.
View how you can set up your favorite web browser to load multiple web sites. Have Fun!!! Let me know if you have any problems.

Tweepi v2.0 :: a geekier, faster way to bulk add quality followers. This is a great tool build quality followers with your Twitter accounts.
Twitter only allows you to follow 2000 people, unless the you meet the ratio of following/followers.
No one seems to know what that ratio is, but I have felt the wrath of this limit. I have an account where I follow 2000 Twitters, but only have a little over 1200 followers. Twitter will not allow me to follow anymore Twitters.
This is were Tweepi comes in to help. Tweepi allows you to flush the unfollowers, reciprocate with those that do follow you, and unfollow those who do not actively tweet. A tool that easily helps in the clean-up and maintenance of your Twitter account.
Check it out and let me know your feelings!! Cheers!
