Send to Kindle
Posted by universalis on 30 April 2012
Some people want to use the Universalis downloads to create e-books for the Amazon Kindle but are daunted by the last step: transferring the e-book to the Kindle itself.
One of our users has alerted us to the new Send to Kindle program which Amazon have made available for Windows (and soon, they claim, for the Mac as well).

We’re now providing a Twitter feed of the saint of the day. The user name is @CatholicFeasts and it posts once a day. Each day’s posts appear at 9.30pm the night before, which is early afternoon in the USA and the morning of the day itself in Australia and New Zealand. On days when different locations have different saints, there’ll be one post for each one.
Feel free to follow or recommend the feed, but please don’t reply to it, because it’s an automated feed and there is no-one around to read the replies.

Windows Mobile: storage cards and the Today screen
Posted by universalis on 13 June 2008
This is a technical posting of no interest to most users of Universalis, but I’ve put it here because it addresses a problem that has been repeatedly raised in Internet forums. Users of the downloadable Universalis for Windows Mobile have asked about it a couple of times, as well.
The question is: if you have a program that puts an item in the Today screen of your Windows Mobile device, can you install it on a storage card, to save space in the device’s main memory?
