Wired Science is a new show on PBS from the same people that produce WIRED magazine and the WIRED.com web site. Obviously the show is about science, and I’ve really been enjoying it. They present a lot of interesting modern technology just like they do in the magazine and on the web site, but in full […]
I enjoy the CSI TV shows. My wife and I regularly watch all three versions of it; Las Vegas, Miami, and New York. I think each spin-off has ended up being less interesting than the last, but one thing is really starting to bug me about all of them… The computers.
I don’t know much about […]
A client asked me to send all of their web site files to them in a zip file this morning for their files. They use Windows, I use a Mac. So I right-clicked on the file and chose to zip and compress it as a Windows-compatible archive. They should have been able to double click […]
Like I’ve already mentioned Apple announced some really cool new software updates and additions today, as well as the new iPod Mini. However they weren’t the only cool things announced at MacWorld.
Elgato System announced the EyeTV 200, and the EyeHome, both of which are extraordinarily cool looking.
EyeTV 200
I’ve written about the original EyeTV before, and […]
Apple announced the rumored Mini iPods this morning, along with some nice updates to its iLife software package.

Before announcing the iPod Mini, Steve released the sales figures for the “bigger” iPods. 730,000 for the fourth quarter of last year alone, and around 2,000,000 total. Wow! The iPod has 31% of the MP3 player market, and […]
I’ve used iSync only a little bit since I got my Macs, mostly just to sync the Address Book and Bookmarks between the two machines. But tonight I really saw some of its power…
I have trouble remembering when my wife is going to be working, since she has several part-time jobs and a very confusing […]
I just added a 512mb chip of RAM to my Powerbook, for a total of 768mb now. Wow does it ever make a difference! Everything is faster from loading web pages to running a Photoshop filter. I had Safari, Mail, iChat, NetNewsWire, Photoshop, iTunes, iPhoto, iMovie, and Preview all open, and could switch between them […]
Things are still busy at work but I thought I’d post and notify everyone that my new 12” Powerbook finally arrived last week. I named it Ronin, because it’s small and agile like a ninja! And I couldn’t find any ninja names that I could pronounce so I went with Ronin which means a Samurai […]
So yeah they found Saddam and everything, but this is by far the funniest thing I’ve read all day…
From AP:
Hussein told capturing forces that his only regret was that due to the timing of his apprehension, he would never have the opportunity to play Halo on his 17” Powerbook. Soldiers were able to capture Hussein […]
I really like the iTunes music store, and have purchased one album and one song from it so far. But one thing that really annoys me about it is when the albums are incomplete or only for sale by song. What is the reasoning behind that? Why would the artist or label say, “You can […]
