“The idea of a computer that does a lot less — leaving out even things you consider essential, because you can still do those things on your other, primary computer — is liberating.” - Daring Fireball: Maybe Instead of Two Cars, You Just Need a Car and a Bicycle Gruber, as usual, nails it. - vijay

Filed under: Macintosh, Office, Productivity Ommwriter is a Mac word processor with a bit of a gimmick. Like one of my favorite writing apps for the Mac, WriteRoom, Ommwriter goes full-screen, with a minimal interface and a focus on avoiding distractions. Ommwriter is even more extreme, though, adding a calming background and soothing music to the mix, and restricting your control over text formatting to a bare minimum to reduce fiddling. The good: that fiddling-reduction thing really works. You can make your text larger or smaller, and choose between three fonts, but that's it. It keeps you away from the controls and focused on your words. Also good: there are 7 different musical selections, and the option to turn the music off altogether (which I recommend you exercise). The default background is quite attractive, but you can switch to basic white if you don't like it. The bad: your only options for saving your Ommwriter docs are plain .txt or Ommwriter's own format. I suppose... - vijay

The University of East Anglia's Hadley Climatic Research Centre appears to have suffered a security breach earlier today, when an unknown hacker apparently downloaded 1079 e-mails and 72 documents of various types and published them to an anonymous FTP server. Much of this information is damning, and shows the Centre involved in sharp practices. - vijay

Dozens of giant Nomura jellyfish along the eastern coast of Japan capsized the 10-ton fishing trawler, known as the Diasan Shinsho-maru. According to news sources, the incident occurred when three fishermen attempted to haul in a net containing dozens of these enormous jellyfish, which weigh as much as 440 pounds and can grow up to 6 [...] Related posts:530 Lbs Giant Fish drags boat over 20 milesGiant Japanese Jellyfish Turned into CandyPink Land Jellyfish Invade Japan’s Shores This is only a summary of the article.

John Gage and Larry Ellison must have been yelling at their TVs (or their browsers) as Google unveiled their OS. Google has turned our PCs into thin clients for their cloud? I'm not sure I like the idea of a Google OS any more I did a Microsoft OS... at least with Microsoft, my data stayed on my computer and they didn't display ads relevant to the document I was editing at the time. - Ken & Kiyomi

Here's another Unite build for you to test. This time we have worked on making image generation in the Photo Sharing application faster (DSK-271038), and as you can see there are a few other tweaks as well. Give it a spin, and let us know if you find any regressions since the previous build. Download Windows MSI / Windows Classic Macintosh (Universal) / Macintosh (Intel-only) UNIX/Linux ... - vijay

Mostly, I like it; it's very strong. I especially like the heat-map they've used for the Most Commented stories. The only thing I'd criticize is something Mark Trapp has already pointed out (http://friendfeed.com/itafrom...), and that's the serif font on the light background - I had to Zoom the text to make it properly legible for my poor old eyes. - Andrew Terry

I *tried* reading engadget in depth this morning. Their choice of fonts, the overly large graphics for each entry, and their glaring rating/reply on comments make for an unreadable website. I can understand facebook's redesign and dedication to dynamic content... but engadget is not a social website, it doesn't need to be redesigned often in order to remain relevant. I'll need to add engadget to my RSS reader and read it through feeds rather than as a website. - Ken & Kiyomi

Filed under: Software, Freeware, Open Source Ever since upgrading to Snow Leopard, the one remaining 32-bit niggle I have has been with Growl's preference pane. Today, however, Growl has announced and released v1.2 of its famous application notification system with, among other things, 64-bit support. While most of the updates in 1.2 are "behind the scenes," the biggest user-facing improvement is in the upgrade to 64-bit. What this means is that for Snow Leopard users, selecting the Growl preference pane does not require Preferences.app to re-launch in 32-bit compatibility mode. In addition to the Growl preference pane, GrowlMail and GrowlSafari have been updated to 64-bit and are now Snow Leopard compatible. Further, the Growl framework has been re-written in Cocoa dropping support for the Carbon-based API. You can see the full list of changes over at Growl's version history page. Growl users should have received a notification to download the update. Alternatively, you can head over... - vijay
