Looking for a few good testers
Amidst the chaos that will be next week as I try to attend every event at WWDC, I’m also going to be working on some personal development projects as it will be my first “vacation time” since January.
I try to simulate diverse environments in my dev area, but I know that there are some unpredictables [...]
quickie - brightkite.com
Update: While we are on the subject, I also have 12 invitations to Evernote, and new found access to Dropbox. Lemme, lemme, lemme know.
According to The Social, Brighkite was the single most coveted new service/closed beta at Web2.0 conference this year. If you haven’t heard/already received your invitation, Brighkite is sort of like twitter, [...]
Quick Evernote invite give-away!
While a full review may be forthcoming (depending on if this app manages to ingrain itself in my workflow as much as I expect it to), I have 5 3 1 Evernote invites to give away.
If you aren’t familiar with this new app/service, it is essentially Instapaper on steroids, complete with powerful image [...]
a good day to be a web developer
Today Apple rolled out Safari 3.1, and Matt Mullenwag did an official preview post on WordPress 2.5 (RC 1). Maybe it was the double espresso and two green teas I had between breakfast and lunch, but I’m about as giddy as a school girl (who swoons when presented with sexy new tech stuff). [...]
Subversion on the Mac
Honestly, the situation is pretty pitiful. Subversion, for those not in the know, is a popular version control system like CVS or many proprietary systems used in the workplace. It allows you to store and time-stamp your work as you progress, allowing you to always locate the latest version of a file, and [...]
Because everyone loves to skitch
When I first switched to Mac some 5 years ago, I was hesitant to install software that wasn’t released by big known companies. Coming from the constant burn that is Windows, the risk of a faulty program crashing my system or much worse, infecting my system vastly outweighed the possible benefits of the new [...]
As if there was a good excuse
After roughly 46 days (give or take), I have re-surfaced. Some of you may have wondered if I was rubbed out by an angry gang of Flash ninjas, and despite the persistent rumors, that is simply not the case. While I managed to irk some fellow ‘netizens,’ what kept me from posting is [...]
Dissecting Microsoft’s attack on Google Apps
Disclosure: I’m a huge Google fanboy. I use all their betas on a daily basis, and feel like they can do no wrong. I have no qualms with their data rentention policies, and will continue to trust them until the day the government successfully subpoenas account information, at which point I will [...]
Streamy revisited ( … yes, with invites)
I’ve been in and out of Streamy for the past couple weeks, not being able to devote sufficient time to really explore it. Today I set aside a couple hours and decided to pour through its feature set.
Although I mentioned its positioning to Digg in my last post, it’s nice to get confirmation from [...]
Hey GrandCentral
Your login form is borked in Safari. Just so you know. Looks like someone got around to fixing the glitch. My comments on flash and a standalone login page remain.
I mean, seriously. Who in your company told you that using flash where javascript would have worked just fine was a good [...]
