permalink Helvetica in Dublin

the idea is simple —- take a snap whenever I see Helvetica in use.

Any guesses as to what my favourite font is??

Skype for iPhone

So Skype has literally just been launched for the iPhone.

I’m seriously disappointed. The app WILL crash after 60 seconds each and every time I launch the app. Checking the crashreporter logs yield the same error every time (see below for extract). This was the app that so many people have been yearning for - i’m going to try a couple things to get it working but i’m not hopeful.

Process:         Skype [325]

UPDATE: Turns out that this is an issue with jailbroken iPhone. Jay Freeman (saurik) has already come up with the fix —— go into Cydia and update mobilesubstrate to the latest version. EPIC
