Iphone is so yesterday…..I want a MyPhone
So Iphone is all the rage now and if you don’t have one you’re not cool….right? Well, not exactly. You see there is this whole movement out there that believes your phone should be YOURS, not Apples, not MS’s, not anyone elses. I believe Nokia is getting there with the N800, but they are not…

So you like Ubuntu….
Came across this the other day. Reconstructor is the new cool tool that allows you to grab you favourite ubuntu distro (desktop, alternate or server). Now you can have your Ubuntu and eat it too :-). It’s free and runs on linux (yeah there is a bit of a chicken and egg problem here). Well,…

Complete 3D Chipset Specs
Wow, very cool page that contains basically every graphics chipset specs known to man. Definetly worth bookmarking and visiting when you just have to find that chipset detail you’re looking for. Nice work :-). If you browse to the top level you’ll find even more detailed tables of everything from processor charts to socket charts…

Take that JesusPhone…..
Okay, so by now you all know that I kinda hate the iPhone. I think it’s gonna be the big wake up call for Apple/Steve. We’ll see, but in the meantime Nokia has beefed up the N800 with a simple software upgrade. New features include Skype (yehaaa), Flash 9 (wohoo) and SDHC support (upto 8GB),…

A Visit to the Computer History Museum….
While in San Francisco during WWDC, I had a chance to drop by the Computer History Museum in Mountain View. Let me tell you, it is one of the best museums I’ve been to in a while. Not only is it free, but it will take you back through the entire history of computing and…

Google Maps route tweaking….
Did you ever use google maps to get direction from point A to B, only to have to give up and do some manual adjustments, because you wanted to make a pit stop at location C? Did you ever want to get google maps (or any other mapping program for that matter) to take you…

Google + Spreadsheet = Heaven !!!
Well, maybe. If there is one feature I like about spreadsheets, it is that you can use formulas, have them lookup other static field/colums and have the spreadsheet engine fill down an entire column automatically by reference. We’ve all done this and marvelled at the simplicity of the concept. Another feature that I like is…

Nostalgia…
Yeah, I like history, and I think you can learn a thing or two from it. In this case we’re talking about google (and I guess all search engines before and after). Just have a look at this ad for the “Answer Machine” from 1964. Published in Childcraft Vol. 6: How things change by Field…

Photoshop on the Web….
Just came across this site Fauxto.com (read it like it’s french…..Phau-to….ie: photo). Anyways, great web 2.0 application. It has all your standard photo application funtions/features (including layers for all you PS guys). Maybe it’s just me, but a couple more applications like this and well, we won’t need the OS anymore (be it OSX, WinXP,…

Pictures: WWDC bash featuring Ozomatli
Well it took a little while to get these out the door, but I think you’ll agree, the wait was well worth it. These are 60 of the best (out of a collection of 1228) pictures I took on thursday night (June 14, 2007) during Apple’s WWDC07 bash. I think 5% keepers is a pretty…
