Just in time for today’s release of iPhone OS 3.0 with its oh-so-handy pasteboard, I’ve updated a little project of mine, Glyphboard. It’s a sort of keyboard which lets you type glyphs not available on any of the standard iPhone keyboards. These glyphs include , ☂, ☺, ✔, and even ♫.

You may find this handy for Twitter, text messaging, emails, and I’m sure I don’t know what else. A clarification: unfortunately Safari won’t let you just tap a key to copy it; you have to hold and tap. I wish you didn’t, but there.

On the flip side, even though it’s a web app, once you’ve installed Glyphboard it will work even when you’re offline. How’s that!

This is awesome. It feels like a native app, but it’s actually a web app using the powerful new features of iPhone OS 3.0. No address bar, status bar that is black,… just like a native app.
