Adobe to Acquire Macromedia!

18 Apr, 2005

I’m completely shocked. Adobe will be buying Macromedia! Two of the biggest web applications companies out there. I have long since chosen Macromedia products over Adobe, and now I fear for the futures of Dreamweaver and Fireworks. I’m unsure of what the future will bring, but I’m worried that, without competition, Adobe could take the […]

There has been a lot of talk in the web world about RSS lately and there are lots of sites that tell you what it is, however I’m going to try and explain it in an easy to understand way. RSS, Really Simple Syndication, is a way for a web site to condense their content, […]

Yea for iTunes Free Music

2 Apr, 2005

Thanks to my family I got a bunch more free songs from the Pepsi and iTunes game. My brother drinks a lot of Mtn. Dew and when he wins a song, my mom saves the caps for me. So today I added 7 free songs to my iTunes account. This is great as I can’t […]

iMac in the Trash (bag)

30 Mar, 2005

Since I’ve been working from home for a while, today I decided to go back to the office. However, the weather also decided that this would be the first spring day to rain and storm. So I decided that I’d use a garbage bag as a rain coat for my iMac G5. It even matches […]

Pimp Out Safari with Plugins and Customizations

22 Mar, 2005

John Hicks decided that Firefox users shouldn’t have all the fun. There are lots of customization, theme and extension pages for Firefox but nothing really for Safari so he did something about it. Pimp My Safari is the result. A site dedicated to Apple’s Safari web browser and the plugins and customizations available for it. […]

Custom iTunes Prepaid Cards

18 Mar, 2005

At Austin’s South by Southwest (SXSW) music festival Apple released artist and song specific iTunes gift cards. The cards appear to be good for one free song which is specified on the the card its self. I think this is a great way for artists to give out demo singles, or pre-releases, and a great […]

Google Goes Mac

16 Mar, 2005

Google added a little JavaScript and a little DHTML and created Google X. A new toy that imitates the dock in Mac OS X. Nice to see others getting enjoyment out of the Mac OS. [Update] It appears to have been removed from Google It’s 4:30 CST and the link is now dead. Screenshot:

It has everything from Big and Rich’s Save A Horse (Ride a Cowboy) (Dance Mix) to 50 Cent’s In da Club. Includes Kelly Clarkson’s Since You Been Gone and Justin Timberlake’s Rock Your Body. There is something […]
