I use Tweetdeck http://tweetdeck.com/beta/ and I also use Seesmic http://seesmic.com/desktop... . Both are good, and are Cross platform apps. If you are on a Mac I would recommend Tweety http://www.atebits.com/tweetie... (This is what I use on my mac). - Jamie Allison

seriously?! the office ribbon / menubar approach is such a horrible UI design. Just because it's different doesn't mean it's better. I really hope firefox offers this as an optional feature. I think firefox should move to incorporate ubiquity as it's primary ui, if it's looking to update it's look and feel. - Jamie Allison

Text substitution lets you create shortcuts for phrases you use frequently that will expand automatically as you type. Common substitutions are built in — for example, changing (c) to a copyright symbol (©) and fractions from 1/2 to ½. You can also add your own substitutions; for example, “pnc” can expand to “privileged and confidential,” and your initials can expand to your full name. - from the Snow Leopard Feature Page ( http://www.apple.com/macosx... ) - Jamie Allison

Seriously how did they figure this out? What in the world possessed them to inject Blue M&M dye into a rat? Were they just bored one day? Stoned? Did they pick this experiment out of a hat? Did the lab tech that did the injecting tell the other who was looking on, "What part of this experiment isn't totally awesome!?" "I'm telling you Jim, this is the only way we will realize our dream of creating a mutant smurf army, who knows only anger, and is fueled by the spilled blood of our enemies!!!" - Jamie Allison

How exactly do you get this view? I can't seem to figure that out. Do you have to search for something special? - Jamie Allison

Thank you for the info. I really appreciate it. - Jamie Allison

Well then by their logic, since a terrorist has access to a cell phone, then cell phones should probably be marked as a potential tool for terrorists. Also if they have access to paper and and a pen, then theoretically they could write a message, fold it up into a paper airplane and send secret messages, to each other, so we should probably stop using paper and pens also. - Jamie Allison

Why commit that much data to a device with such a short lifespan? - Jamie Allison

A smart way to browse and locate Flickr images on large map of the world. Filter photos by selecting a specific tag or searching for your buddy's user name. All navigation is done without any page refresh. An app that may save your boring afternoons. - Jamie Allison

I lived in Cottonwood Arizona, 100 miles north of phoenix, for 10 years. We pretty much stayed nocturnal during the summer time. You should have been there in 1994 when the temp was around 125 degrees. - Jamie Allison

The second lamp listed, made from art history slides, really got the hamsters in my brain running again. - Jamie Allison from Bookmarklet

Congrats, Matt! - Floyd

Might be a better alternative than the iPhone app for some folks, then. Great tip! - Chris Baskind

Have you tried the WPhone Plugin for wordpress yet? http://wphoneplugin.org/screens... . It's not a Native app but it makes the worpress admin very iPhone accessible. I wonder if it could be used in conjunction with the bookmarklet ? - Jamie Allison

Jamie, I have used the WPhone plugin, and it is, indeed, pretty useful. I don't think it would work with the new 2.6 "Press This" bookmarklet, since it depends on displaying the regular Admin interface (which WPhone modifies). But even with WPhone, I don't know of an easy way to add photos and video code to a post, besides this bookmarklet. But it's definitely another arrow in the arsenal! :-) - Josh Bancroft

I purchased the Macheist bundle, and AppZapper and TaskPaper were worth the cost alone. - Jamie Allison

I can just see the band now: a thirty-something boy band, with permanent 5 o'clock shadows and ponytails, one of the members has a clubbed foot, He's the sensitive one. And One of them has a third nipple, cause you know, he's from the streets, He's seen it all. - Jamie Allison

A Bacon Alarm clock! This would get me out of bed. - Jamie Allison from Bookmarklet

No - Bwana ☠

Yep, it's needed. I had it on my Treo and used it a lot. I thought I'd be okay without it but I've noticed many frustrating situations where I remember I'm C/P-less. I hope it comes soon. - Lise

Something about this just makes me chuckle. - Jamie Allison from Bookmarklet

Pretty sure this is fake. And if it is fake, I must say it's really good photshop work, none the less. - Jamie Allison from Bookmarklet
