Intel MacBook Pro and iMac

Apple did it again. Another MacWorld with HUGE announcements. The Intel Mac is shipping in iMac and MacBook Pro models. (ok so MacBook pro won’t ship until February but close enough) MacBook Pro is replacing the PowerBook and is said to be 4 to 5x times faster!

Also announced is iLife 06 with iWeb and lots of RSS and Podcast integration, the official FM transmitter for the iPod and minor updates to iWork.

Good job Steve. Can’t wait to play with an Intel machine. :D

Goodbye Camp Snoopy

The beagle has left the building. The Mall of America in Boomington Minnesota has officially lost the rights to Snoopy and the Peanuts gang.

On January 19th the mall’s indoor amusement part will be called “The Park at MOA” until a new theme is decided upon. The rides will remain open, however a lot of re-branding has to be done as the park is heavily Peanuts themed.

No word on new deals, but Nickoledian or Disney would be great additions I think. However, they’d probably be spendy. What do you think would be a good theme for the park?

iPox Issues & Discussion

I have found out that iPox has major issues on Windows. Seems that some important menus disappear and I’m not sure why or what they see. However, I’ve started a new iPox discussion area over at the Mozilla forms to help me get this issue fixed and get more feedback.

Congratulations Missee & Jesse

A big congrats go out to Missee & Jesse as they got married on Saturday. I was more than happy to be in the wedding and help out. It was a great ceremony and I know the couple will be very happy!! :)

Wordpress TypePad Movable Type Buttons

The Chicklet Creator has the ability to create code for Wordpress chicklets that pull the information directly from Wordpress. No extra coding necessary and it should automatically update if you change your blog name or URL. However, there are many more blogging platforms out there than just Wordpress. That’s where I need your help.

I’m able to work with Wordpress so well because that’s what I use. If you use a different platform, feel free to help me build buttons that will automatically work with them. It’s quite easy, all you have to do is send me the three variables that your blogging platform uses.

iPox Firefox Theme

Announcing my first Firefox theme iPox!

iPox Badge

The first version of iPox has been released. It’s only v0.1 so don’t expect anything to awesome. :)

Since this is my first Firefox theme, I’m learning as I go. I’m using the default Mac Firefox theme as my base and editing pieces here and there. It’s loosely based off an iPod and/or Apple GUI. I stress loosely though as I’m kind of doing whatever I want.

You can check out iPox on Mozilla’s site once it gets approved or you can get it from my iPox page.

Most Annoying Website

Stupid web with stupid web pages.

Someone created a web puzzle and I can’t figure it out. Is there logic? I have no idea. Is there a pattern? Sure, I mean I think so. If you need something to pass the time and annoy the heck out of you check out http://www.gettoz.com/

It’s annoying, so don’t say I didn’t warn you!!

Chicklet Creator 2 Released

The Feed Subscription Button Maker has been renamed to Chicklet Creator and version 2 has just been released.

The new version not only has a few new buttons, but it has the ability for you to choose which buttons you want to add to your site. Check only those that you want and we’ll only generate that code. Not sure which buttons you want? That’s ok. We have suggested buttons that we feel are the most popular services.

Design Update 2006

Hey Hey Hey! I’ve updated a few things on my site to modify the design. What do you think?

The number of changes are quite minor but but I think they bring a big impact.

Now I haven’t looked on all machines and all browsers, so there may be minor issues. Just let me know.

And, as always, this site looks best in Firefox. :)

ecto Features

This is just an ecto test as I try and figure out a bunch of features. So far, so good. I’m really liking this desktop application and it should only get better!!!

Let’s see, what can we do.

Amazon Linkage:

“Gamecube - Mario Party 7″ (Nintendo)
Wow, that’ was easy. How about some font’s and colors!! Nice. I’d try out the iPhoto integration but I’ll leave that for a later day.

So far, this is GREAT!!
