Durch die Änderung der URLs für die Radarbilder beim Deutschen Wetterdienst war eine Anpassung nötig. Im Zuge der Überarbeitung nutzt Rain nun das HTML Geolocation API um die Position des Nutzers zu bestimmen und auf der Karte anzuzeigen.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4758990295591878999-2507783085812503203?l=afterworkcoders.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>matternikushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00628444314355271694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4758990295591878999.post-14301500611999595802009-03-28T00:17:00.012+01:002009-03-28T00:42:55.194+01:00An oil spill polluted the beaches on the east coast of Australia.

As announced in the app description you can see some selected storms closer. Currently we have the hurricane "Ike" and the super typhoon "Jangmi", but the list will be frequently updated. Although both were very devastating storms, they look so fascinating from the pictures. Very good to see is the eye of the storms.<br /></div><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_17wvIXFxrik/SOatwj7KoUI/AAAAAAAAAkY/v_HGaqkyiGc/s1600-h/earthwinds_ike.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_17wvIXFxrik/SOatwj7KoUI/AAAAAAAAAkY/v_HGaqkyiGc/s320/earthwinds_ike.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5253077065162989890" border="0" /></a><br />There are almost 30 images for both storms and the image count feature is ignored.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Try the fascinating image loop.</span><br /></div><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Hint:</span> If you have trouble downloading the new version, please clear the cache.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4758990295591878999-6690343566049927952?l=afterworkcoders.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>matternikushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00628444314355271694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4758990295591878999.post-33093567492777875482008-10-03T10:21:00.004+02:002008-10-10T07:31:53.075+02:00Three days after launching EarthWinds on Apple Web app directory we're surprised about the great interest from people all around the world. Thank you for visiting EarthWinds. Together with the "Staff Pick" Label this is a motivation to us to improve the app and bring some new features with the first update soon.<br /><br />Because not mentioned yet there are usually 4 images (6 hour interval) per day for every view.<br /><br />P.S.: When loading the app for the first time there's a white window which disappears when js loading is complete. This is our deactivated debug console for iphone webapps, which we'll remove with the update.<br /><br />If you have suggestions or criticism to us, please leave a comment in our blog.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4758990295591878999-3309356749277787548?l=afterworkcoders.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>matternikushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00628444314355271694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4758990295591878999.post-57531623913892862362008-09-30T08:07:00.009+02:002009-04-03T08:12:27.330+02:00<span class="Apple-style-span" style="text-decoration: underline; color: rgb(0, 0, 238);"><img src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_17wvIXFxrik/SOFjT3iaOSI/AAAAAAAAAj4/3q6l0dOvj9c/s200/earthwinds_touch.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5251587833467648290" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; text-align: justify; float: right; cursor: pointer;" border="0" /></span><div style="text-align: justify;">EarthWinds is an iPhone touch web app that shows you the world from above with current images.
