I bare a couple of issues with the new Apple MacBook (Pro) but this post isn’t necessarily about those issues, most of which are processor transition & software related, but moreso about Apple.
Apple has been receiving a few uppercuts regarding customer service in the iPod related departments. And just today, in the […]
Google idealism of “do no evil”, while admirable, is still not necessarily practical. What I mean by that is that Gmail users like myself have contended with the fact that Google thought, in their original release of Gmail, that 1gig of space is so profuse and excessive that users would never really need to […]
Anyone know of any kind of Mac or Windows device that automatically loads a CD into a CD tray? I’m looking for a kind of self-contained unit much like a disc duplicator, but a device that physically loads the CD and can retrieve it if ejected or removed from a PC… The device […]
I imagine most of us could imagine most of these things, but I’ve never seen it articulated so well. See what I mean…
Before doing any serious upgrading to Wordpress 2.0, which I’m debating, I managed to tweak the site a bit using some tips care of Paul Stamatiou. Go check it out.
Also, I love footers with this style (care of Tauqil.com). Expect to see something like this in both Elvgren and Taft! With a […]
In more recent updates, I caved and finally upgraded to a Pro Flickr account. There just isn’t another fun and easy way to share 450 photos of the holidays with friends and family, comments, notes, and all. If there is at least, I don’t know of it. I was/am a beta-tester of […]
Mikhail Edoshin, whose blog I strongly recommend reading for some interesting and abstract FileMaker thinking, pointed out here recently that FileMaker has also recently published an elaborate whitepaper on naming conventions of everything from fields, to Table Occurrences, to scripts. I strongly recommend reading it.
If not, take a look at Mikhail’s blog for some […]
I’ve read a lot about this, most especially by the seeming clairvoyants over at InfoWorld. What happens when all this networked stuff breaks? Could I ever lose my work and time spent tagging my bookmarks? Couldn’t Yahoo just decide to charge me one day to access them again? I know I […]
For those not following any of the recent negative buzz surrounding Apple’s Aperture 1.0, you should start by scouring the web for most of the reviews that have labeled it as phenomenal and a ‘must-have’, then read the initial review at Ars Technica. The latter, while having been demonized as an Aperture bash-fest or […]
For those looking for a nice intro to AJAX, both Michael of Binary Bonsai and IBM Developer Works have writeups. Michael’s is more about the Scriptaculous JavaScript library, but it’s worth reading. You can find Michael’s writeup here and IBM’s writeup here.
The scant posts here at SWL are a product of a lot […]
