Runkeeper is spyware free now

The last few months I followed the discussion on the Runkeeper(tm FitnessKeeper inc.) forum concerning spyware in their iPhone app. Runkeeper is a fabulous application for iPhone users who like to log their running, hiking, skiing, cycling and other sporting activities. It's far better than the better known Nike+ solution, which only counts your steps. Runkeeper is far better than Nike+. Runkeeper also logs your exact location by the built in GPS in the iPhone. Also speed, distance and many other things are logged and shared on a dashboard on the web. Streetteams of multiple friends also using Runkeeper motivate each other to keep doing their sports.

Spyware in an iPhone app? The discussion went hot about a library from Pinchmedia used by Runkeeper (both the free and the paid version). Is Pinchmedia spyware? I don't think that is true, Pinchmedia is a statistic tool for iPhone application developers to get information about the usage of their app. But when the Pinchmedia library is used in an iPhone app, data is sent to that 3rd party. Info such as usage time, gps location, type of phone and... your ip address. In The Netherlands the dutch provider T-Mobile, the only provider to sell the iPhone, gives every user his own ip address. Now that ip address is also known by Pinchmedia. So a 3rd party knows all about you and can locate your ip address to a exact location where you live. Scary!

On the forum I read the latest comments that Runkeeper stopped using the Pinchmedia library so your private info isn't sent anymore to a 3rd party. I compared the IP data of a old version of Runkeeper Free with a recent update and I can confirm that there is no more spyware in Runkeeper. Now I'll buy the paid version and start running!

I love the watch, it is heavy, solid, modern, sporty yet very elegant and extremely good looking. The well known precision of a Seiko combined with the looks makes it a wonderful item to have. watches iwc|

As for Word 2010, Microsoft Office I really like the ribbon effect Microsoft Office 2007. The only really annoying thing so far is Micro office 2010 that once a document is closed, it doesn't show up on the "Recent Documents" list if it is download Office 2010 saved in the temp directory (for example). So, 2010 office if you forget to save your doc to the Office 2007 right place, it may be hard to find. For me, being on the set of the Martha Stewart television show Office Microsoft 2010 was a treat. It was the Office 2010 download second time, actually, because back in October Anduin showcased Office Microsoft Microsoft OneNote on the air for how it was office 2010 professional helping her keep track of everything from her daughter's school information to her holiday gift list to her complete set of Thanksgiving plans. This was simple to install, early loaded onto my new Windows 7 program. Office 2010 I had no problem MS office 2007 linking over old files from my MS office 2010 old computer. Old file information was easy absorbed by the 'New' versions of the various office products and Microsoft outlook 2010 in just a few minutes all my Office 2007 key old data was reasonable so I had very minimal down time. Last week, the Martha Stewart show featured Microsoft office professional 2010 Word in a television segment about office 2010 pro how to make personal holiday cards quickly and easily. As the product guy responsible for most of the Office Microsoft outlook apps, of course I was Office 2007 download tickled by the fact that Office 2010 Microsoft Word was going to be on TV. Word doesn't get much stage time, you understand. She's definitely the behind-the-scenes kind of girl; much like Anduin Havens, who is the art director for the Microsoft Office 2010 Martha Stewart show download Office 2007. Anduin has got to be one of the 2010 Office Microsoft most creative people I've ever met. She's brilliant, she's won an Emmy for her work on creating the Outlook 2010 set of the show, and she made Office 2010 key these beautiful holiday cards office 2010 home in Word, which were featured on the air.

It’s a film called Hungry for You and it’s in pre-production now. I play the lead vampire. I didn’t want to be a vampire but was forced into it so I’m struggling with my vampire powers and not wanting to turn the girl I love into a vampire. The script is really great and has a wonderful storyline. It’s been fun. The creator, Linda Andersson, has a really cool comic strip of Hungry for You that she is going to release soon. It’s sort of a teaser and a way to start the marketing for the project in a bigger level.
