Mar 19th
If you use Yahoo! Web Analytics as your primary tracking tool on your website and got an iPhone app the best thing is to get the trackingdata from the app into your YWA account. There is a easy way to do this using the image url from the trackingcode, but keep in mind that the app need to be connected to the internet in order to send the trackingdata to YWA.
Michiel van Gaalen @ SallyKnows has written a simple manual on how to track conversions in an iPhone app using YWA. If you would like more detailed statistics about your users and the usage of the app I would recommend using Flurry together with the YWA tracking.

WordPress for iphone
Mar 14th
Yesterday when I was setting up this blog i discovered that there was an wordpress app for iPhone. So today I wanted to test to see if this was something i wanted to use.
I started with some connection problems when setting up the app, not sure why since everything seemed to be ok. After a couple of tryouts I got it to work, and I love it! It’s easy to use, let’s me keep an eye on my blog and incoming comments. And the most important, I can publish something immediatly.
The WordPress for iPhone app is also free, and I would actually been willing to pay for it.
