2010.04.29 Super Mario Crossover
Good. Gravy. Combine two of my favorite characters? Sweeeeet. #
2010.04.29 Steve Jobs - Thoughts on Flash
Undoubtedly you'll see another link to this one, but Steve Jobs publicly defends Apple's position on Flash. It's a well constructed piece, and finishes even better: "New open standards created in the mobile era, such as HTML5, will win on mobile devices (and PCs too). Perhaps Adobe should focus more on creating great HTML5 tools for the future, and less on criticizing Apple for leaving the past behind." #
2010.04.28 Smitten Kitchen - Homemade Pop Tarts
I know at least one Pop-Tart lover who would probably love to eat these, but is too lazy to make them. Well, if you include me in that, then there's two. #
2010.04.27 Transmit 4.0
I've been beta testing it for the past few months. If you own a Mac, and ever do any sort of FTP, you should buy this software. I love the new Transmit Disk they added in this version. Hot stuff. Great work by a great company. #
2010.04.26 Indexed - Taking Offense Can be a Competitive Sport
A perfectly illustrated relation between a sense of humor and drama. #
2010.04.22 The Ministry of Type - Handyman’s Modern Manuals
A great find from an old Popular Science magazine, and a terrific new rendering. Additionally the site referenced The Ministry of Type has been added to my feed reader. #
2010.04.20 Boston.com - Eyjafjallajokull
Some fascinating photos from Iceland's erupting/disrupting volcano. Has anybody else sat back and thought "Whoa, volcano's are really weird!"? #
2010.04.20 Axis Of Awesome - 4 Four Chord Song (YouTube)
Basically, this whole compilation of songs uses the same 4 chords. Rewind for the lame intro and cussing (and my apologies for profanities later on). #
2010.04.16 McSweeney's: Mario and the Bible
Talking reptiles. #
2010.04.16 LIFE Photo Gallery: The Day Einstein Died
I'm fascinated by Einstein, and previously noted how much I enjoyed Walter Isaacson's biography of him. These photos, at least two of the initial three, continue to help paint of picture of who he was. Very interesting. #
