Pixlr - image editing webapp that works... well.
Remember all the hype about Adobe's Photoshop web app? Pixlr kicks its ass all over the interwebs. It's free, no need to set up an account, runs fast, and it even has Layers. Pretty advanced for a webapp, it won't do your RAW processing, but well worth checking out for …

The death of Apple Pie
It is a bit of a sad day today, Bettie Page passed away yesterday after a heart attack. The Senate has also dropped the automaker bail out plan. Why is this sad? It's sad because I had not really given any thought to what this world would be like if Chevrolet where no …

Apple is a bully
Explain to me why the f**K I have to download and install iTunes in order to get Quicktime? I f**king hate iTunes. iPods are great products, but would be so much better without the corporate bullying that Apple insists on.
If you're like me and can't stand using iTunes, …

Irata - best new band I've heard in a long time
Yesterday I received my copy of Irata's self titled debut album. I'm impressed, very impressed. Not only are they good musicians writing good music, they are doing a great job of self promoting. Go to their site to see what I mean, you can stream the whole album from …

It's been awhile since my last post, things have been, and still are, kinda hectic and stressful. Which makes me wonder why I'm expanding on the last post rather than posting on a new subject... oh right, I think it's way cool.

Library of Congress on Flickr
Yes, there has been a few photography posts of late. Why? I took up the pastime, is why. This week in fact, I got serious and bought a Pentax K20D, along with a couple lenses. Yay.

Photoshop Express
If you haven't already heard (seems to be everywhere this morning), Adobe has released the Photoshop Express Beta today. What's Photoshop Express? It's a stripped down web based version of Photoshop, sort of. It's Flash based, it's a photo editor, it's a simple crop, …

No Starch on The Pirate Bay
Book publisher No Starch Press has upped The Cult of Mac and The Cult of iPod to The Pirate Bay. Snatch it, it's legal.
It's about time some of these corporate knobs wake up and use technology to their advantage. Would I be blogging about these books otherwise? I think …
