Using an application for Twitter in no way makes Twitter relevant. Using Twitter in no way makes Twitter relevant. Even if its marketing might allows you to bum rush an attention craving industry, the end result adds little value.

Apple thinks that if you have some unread messages from a person you are about to contact (call or send a message to him), you might want to at least look at them before initiating contact. And that’s exactly what this app does – compares your unread messages, e-mails, voicemails, etc; to the info of a person you are about to contact and informs you if you have some unread messages from him sitting on your phone.
In addition to checking the contact info, the message app can also check for certain keywords – e.g. the name of a project you are writing about and alert that you have some unread messages relating to it.
From the article, Next in your iPhone OS: live object identification, face recognition, text filtering, smarter messaging, voice alteration discussing some of the patents Apple has filed.
I love the idea of displaying unread messages, e-mails, voicemails, etc; of the person you are about to contact. This kinda sorta reminds me a bit of using Google Chat – are you about to send an email to someone? Let’s see if they’re online and maybe you can chat with them instead.

In celebration of Susan’s birthday, my first father’s day, and just to kick back for a bit, we rented a house for the week on Brantingham Lake in upstate NY. I have fond memories of being lakeside in the Adirondacks, it’s been great revisiting.
One of the beauties of working from home is that home can be anywhere. Let’s not take broadband proliferation and powerful portables for granted either ;)

The Google results tell it all. Skateboarding isn’t on their radar. Who would expect it to be?
This doesn’t mean we shouldn’t be excited for Pete Eldridge. Philadelphia’s own is the latest to take advantage of Adidas’ ploy to employ the lesser known in a street cred creation marketing exercise.
Way more exciting than Eric Koston on Nike. Way better for skateboarding. Take the money!

Lately I’ve been hooked on Google Chrome. Chrome’s built in inspector even fills in nicely for FF’s robust Firebug extension. But for browsing, I’ve really missed the ability to quickly add bookmarks to my Delicious account. Sure, I can add the delicious bookmarklets to Chromes bookmark bar, but then I need to leave that ugly bar across the top at all times. I’d much prefer it across the bottom, in cute icon form!
Turns out, it’s really quite simple to create an extension for Google Chrome, so I created the Delicious Chrome Extension. Once installed it will add two familiar Delicious buttons to the bottom left corner of Google Chrome:
Setup:
- You must be using a recent trunk build of Chrome or the Chrome dev channel release.
- Download and unzip the featured delicious-chrome-extension.zip file.
- To enable the support for extensions, edit the target field of the shortcut you use to launch Google Chrome. Right-click on the Chrome shortcut, select “Properties” and append to the Target field a space followed by:
–enable-extensions –load-extension=”c:\path-to\delicious-chrome-extension”
Installation info and the permanent home for the Delicious Chrome Extension can be found on Google projects: http://code.google.com/p/delicious-chrome-extension/
