From Apple:
MobileMe Update
We have already made many improvements to MobileMe, but we still have many more to make. To recognize our users’ patience, we are giving every MobileMe subscriber as of today a free 60 day extension. This is in addition to the one month extension most subscribers have already received. We are working very [...]
Firefox 3 has a two-line format for bookmark/history titles which makes good use of screen space:
OmniWeb 5.8 puts it all in one line:
My request is for OmniWeb to use a two line method of displaying so we can better see the link title.
Side note is that Safari does not do it at all:
From the .Me page, info re: email-only accounts:
Can I purchase additional Email Only accounts?
Email Only accounts have been discontinued. Only existing Email Only accounts may still be renewed. If you would like to share your MobileMe account with other family members, you may purchase a Family Pack upgrade in the Account section of me.com at [...]
Sending email to Me.com now works. I hope this portends an early release of push .Mac MobileMe email.
I’d never heard about the Today app until reading about it on TUAW. If you want the functionality of Entourage’s My Day without the cost, then Today looks like a solid choice.
Talk about your über-geeky: Joel at OmniGroup has posted his method of tracking characters in OmniFocus. Fourth edition D&D is a sea change in the way powers, abilities, and just about everything else, and his method is interesting. Again, über-geeky but so crunchy.
I know there are sites like Don’t Forget the Milk and TaDa List. The problem with those is you are dependent on connectivity. 3G iPhone or not, there is no getting to your list if you are stuck with no signal in the metal box monstrosities of a supermarket. Syncing notes to your notes may [...]
From the Google Mac blog:
We’re happy to tell you that starting today, it’s easier to sync up your contact lists. The Address Book application in Mac OS X 10.5.3 now lets iPhone users sync their Address Book with Google Contacts. To try it, go to the Address Book menu, choose Preferences, and then check Synchronize [...]
Delicious Library 2.0 has been released. A lot has already been said about the app, so I will just link to my library export. The export takes quite a bit of time and rendered my Macbook Pro darn near useless, so I would recommend against publishing daily.
You can check out “Carrie Bradshaw’s Mac desktop” if you are really into all the hoopla about the upcoming movie (as my wife is). The first thing I noted was that the browser is not Safari, but Camino.
