Icon mocking Windows in Mac OS X Leopard

Sun, 24 Jun 2007 03:58:33 +0000

Looks like Apple has a sense of humor when building Mac OS X Leopard. I don’t expect this icon to be in the final version of Leopard, though. (From radr)

Why are there only 307 Facebook Applications so far?

Sun, 17 Jun 2007 04:30:38 +0000

When you look at Facebook‘s Application Directory, you see that next to “All”, it notes “307″, suggesting that there are a total of 307 Facebook Applications in all. This is not true. 307 simply states the number of Applications that Facebook deems is allowed to be in the Directory, meaning that these are high-quality applications [...]

Recently, I’ve been seeing a little icon on websites more and more often. Sometimes, when I least suspect it, I’ll be visiting a well-known open source project or a popular web application, and then my eyes will shift to a box that shows prominently on the homepage, linking to the same site.

What do I need an Apple TV for?

Thu, 22 Mar 2007 02:58:56 +0000

Just a little over a month ago from today, I made a post entitled “Nintendo Wii + Mac Mini = entertainment paradise“, which laid out the way in which I synergized my Mac Mini and Nintendo Wii together to make a pretty damn good entertainment system. Now, the Apple TV just started shipping yesterday, and [...]

Nintendo Wii + Mac Mini = entertainment paradise

Mon, 19 Feb 2007 06:51:32 +0000

As some people know, I purchased a Nintendo Wii about a week ago (from Pittsburgh, PA because they are extremely hard to find here in Toronto!) I’m having a great time with it so far, and have a few events planned and had a few that have passed where we’ve used it to play some [...]
