Apple’s New Remote Is A Riddle, Wrapped In A Mystery, Inside An Enigma - http://www.techcrunch.com/2009...
Seriously, there was so much talk around when front row was released and then it stopped. Haven't really seen anything happen around that area since. Id like that button to be able to rate songs when they are playing in front row.
- Tyson
The real glaring omission to me is that it's not a universal remote with the ability to control your TV. At the least it should have TV Power, Mute, Volume +/-, and TV Input. What do they think people watch Apple TV with? Having to swap between two different remotes is lame. Those new buttons could also be assigned Apple native IR codes to control related functions on a Mac.

I've seen blue eyes on a black cat before. There could be some siamese in it's background. I can't really tell from the pic - does it have a wedge-shaped head? It might outgrow the blue eyes, though. How old is it?

- Louis Gray
Katy, I'm not sure if he has a wedge-shaped face. I will get better photos of them soon. They are not brothers, the black one is around 5 weeks old, 18.7oz (so he could still outgrow his blue eyes, but also might not) and the tiger is about 6.5 or maybe 7 weeks 24.3 oz.

So @google, while you're injecting Chrome goodness into IE, can you take a pass at infiltrating Safari so I can install Google Toolbar?

- Igor Poltavskiy
You want to use sidewiki, don't you?
- Jesse Stay
I was annoyed about this today.
- Veronica
Jesse, it's not a matter of "want". It's a matter of finding if all browsers can support the same functionality.
- Louis Gray
Safari really isn't built to be extensible. The only real hooks happen though framework injection and other less-stable methods. IE is built on top of COM, making it somewhat modular. There are hooks up and down the browser stack. I've looked into what it would take to bring our stuff into Safari and it's not easy. You can do a "virtual sidebar" in HTML, but that's about it. It's a pretty complex area, but anyone interested in details can always ping me.
- Matt Mastracci
FWIW, this is the only way I know of to get full browser integration in Safari: http://www.culater.net/softwar...
- Matt Mastracci
There are a few different ways, but the concept is basically the same: http://tsybulin.livejournal.com/46264... SIMBL (and most Snow Leopard-enabled Safari plugins) use the Scripting Additions/helper app method. It should be noted that even Apple uses a similar helper app method to load the Flash plugin.
- Mark Trapp
Mark, thanks for that reference. It adds a few extra techniques I haven't seen before (although they are all variations along the lines of "inject code into Safari" :)).
- Matt Mastracci
That's correct: there is no officially supported way to modify Safari itself (Apple/WebKit only sanctions modifying the document via content-type plugins) so you're left with code injection. But hey, toh-may-toh, toh-mah-toh. You say code injection, I say extending. :-P Some developers, like Agile Web Solutions, do it pretty well to the point where I'd challenge a regular user to find something off about the process.
- Mark Trapp
Functionality that requires a toolbar is doomed to a niche audience anyway.
- LogEx
Yep...
- Rahsheen ™, Coach of FF
LogEx - It's true. On top of that, you can only have so many toolbars before you no longer have a viewport in which to actually look at Web sites.
- Curtiss Grymala
No-one needs Google toolbar anyway. Only people soft headed enough to fall for every geegaw thrown at them as "Useful". It has no real use beyond feeding info back to Google. Everything else can be accomplished without it.
- Gilbert Harding
I find the Google Toolbar to be incredibly useful, to the point where features that it has are actually keeping me from switching to Google Chrome. Google Bookmarks is the biggest one, but Sidewiki is pretty useful too. The AutoLink and AutoFill tools come in quite handy as well. Also, I detest the single box for both URL and Google Search in Chrome, and find the browser unusable because of that, but that's a different thing altogether.
- Otto
Really Otto? Oddly enough, the fact that combining the address bar and search bar isn't standard in other browsers is the main reason I cannot stop using Chrome. I just end up typing my search terms into the address bar on those browsers too, with mixed results.
- Dan Crum
+1 Dan. I do the same thing.
- Curtiss Grymala
me too
- vadimka
Dan: Yes, the integrated bar makes it difficult for me to explicitly tell the browser when I want to search vs. when I'm entering a URL. I frequently search for domain names to find info about them. Chrome interprets this as me wanting to go to the domain, which is not my goal. I cannot use Chrome as long as it has this misfeature.
- Otto
+1 Otto. I like smart apps. But Chrome is a smart ass :-)

I use the a Logitech Harmony remote which works great - especially given the fact that you can program all the settings via their app on my Mac.
- Mike Bracco
Mike, I love my Harmony - watch Woot - you can often find a pretty good deal on them there
- Jesse Stay
used to have a tivo, that did have a good remote, but tivo is yet another box, i want less boxes. always hear good things about harmony remotes but i really just dont see why tv makers spend time making these pretty nice remotes only to be cut out of the picture by cable box makers, who, by the way, have some of the worst tastes ever when it comes to UI/UX design.
- MG Siegler
Jesse: cool thanks. Although I love my Harmony it's just b/c it's not as bad as all the other solutions. The UI still feels really kludgy - The ideal solution would be to just have an iPhone app .......which would also require component makers to build bluetooth and/or wifi into their boxes.
- Mike Bracco
Mike, that's coming. I know of several in the works, and a few in early stages right now. I'd like to see Logitech build an app that does it though.
- Jesse Stay
My satellite box's remote isn't that bad, it's the U.I. that's lacking - they still don't have a widescreen EPG and instead strech the regular 4:3 EPG
- Bryce, Low in Sodium
Jesse - cool, I'm sure it's coming. I think long term the ideal solution are for these components to have no interface on the physical box themselves. They should all be controlled on an iPhone or another device using an app. I think in 5 years the thought of having knobs on components will seem old school...at least I hope so! :)
- Mike Bracco
I have a Harmony and a TiVo - because cable boxes and non-universal remotes suck
- Ankush Narula
Controlling from your Iphone would be great but I would not pass mine around, controlling with the Apple tablet would be awesome because it would pretty much stay in my living room most of the time. But my Harmony 900 will have to do for now.

I've had a logitech Harmony - sorry but didnt work with my very standard sony TV, or with my arcam home cinema. Were listed in the booklet but didnt work as described. Logitech support suggested actually it only worked in the more expensive models, i should buy these... Expensive paperweight - and the last logitech product I bought.
- Joelle Nebbe (iphigenie)
Years ago I had an HP iPaq 2210 with a powerful IR LED perfectly capable of functioning as a remote. And in fact, one of the provided app in it was a remote control app, with a database of over 400 devices that it support directly. And one can train it to record the IR signals of unsupported remotes. Miss it a lot :-(

My first cup was an americano made with Blue Bottle Hayes Valley Espresso coffee. I had a cup of drip from the Blue Bottle cafe this morning (because of my accident with the siphon) and I have to say that the results from the Aeropress were extremely similar.
- Robin Barooah
It came with a carrying bag which is useful since I'll need it at home while I wait for the new siphon funnel.
- Robin Barooah
Does that make it a worthy buy?
- John Samuelson
I used it again yesterday - had 3 cups during the course of the day. I have to say the results were consistently very good. It is very easy to control the amount of coffee you make and how strong it is, and it is as quick and easy to clean as they say. It also produced great results every time with no real practice - which is not true of hand dripping or siphoning. The only drawback, if you can call it that, is that it has no romance to it at all - it's almost like using a medical appliance.
- Robin Barooah
LOL @ syringe... it goes PERFECTLY with the IV ;)
- Mona Nomura
Tried this with the Jamaican Blue Mountain. Surprisingly, FAIL. It tasted good, but had none of the richness I got from dripping. The Aeropress seem to do a very good job of extracting the sweeter notes but doesn't handle the body well, so it will make an average coffee taste sweeter, but do violence to something that's already well balanced.
- Robin Barooah
I think I'm going to relegate this for coffees that are past their prime.
- Robin Barooah
(note: that last comment doesn't mean that I have stopped thinking this is great - I'll be using the siphon or hand dripping instead)
- Robin Barooah
So you're having good luck with Blue Bottle beans, generally? That's what I'd typically be using.

Yes, generally great with them.

Just having a cup of the Temescal Espresso made using the Aeropress. Very nice indeed. Definitely works well with espresso/mokka pot blends.

Sans.org said last week was GREEN - so no major issues on the web :
- Alex 'BuckyBit' Covic
What's Twitter?
- David Rysz
lol my local news (Toronto) had it as their first story, ahead of the Tragedy on the Hudson.
- Dakota O'Neill
I was down in Oklahoma but when I proxied to my california box I could get on twitter just fine.
- Eric Boehs
'Cause the news is relying on Twitter for their sources
- Carey Lumeng
Yea, it is important, its a great source of spam.
- James Watt
more time to enjoy the view Molly
- min
i was at work when all this was going on, i didnt miss it
- Fee501st
Sure it is, I get a lot of news from Twitter now, more so than just browsing the web.
- Nick Young
yeah leo, all that media tlalking about it
- Preternat (Ken Cadby)
millions of what?
- EvilMonkey
Twitter isn't important. It's a drug and "shiny new thing", but nothing more.
- TeraDyne Azurepaw
Jon and Kate were also at the top of the news for a while. You can't infer importance from the fact that something's in the news.
- Ken Sheppardson
I think that Molly is right on this
- RALPH
Just like Charlton Heston in Omega Man
- ZillaFan
How often does that happen...meaningful conversation?
- Allyn Edmonds
Molly, I am that 'certain' kind of person too, but I drink other wines ;)
- Alex 'BuckyBit' Covic
I had a normal day .. twitter had no effect
- Greg
Greg - for two days all I got was the spinning thing when I tried to update when using firefox
- Gary Kostrivas
Friendfeed is better then twitter
- Fee501st
Friendfeed is great!
- RALPH
Last Twitterer on Earth
- ZillaFan
Dvorak must be having a cow right now

Friendfeed makes a good companion to twitter though, a good bridge I should think.

Twitter is a great way to get news now.
- Lou Gagliardi
twitter, like a bad hollywood movie

Leo don't forget to mention Open Street Map

Teens don't use twitter ahaha, its funny because there are more grandparents on facebook!
- Dakota O'Neill
I'm 25; and in college and I use Twitter!
- Lou Gagliardi
Yeah. .we need Dvorak to comment on this... Probably why he didn't come on twit this week
- Eric Boehs
I unfollow people who tweet to much also
- Adrian
people in irc are saying friendfeed is too complicated.. huh?
- Greg
I think Twitter and Friendfeed have their own place
- RALPH
Drovak, meh, move on
- min
The media just like the sound of the word "Twitter". Twitter.
- Ken Sheppardson
Twitter needs a dedicated fail whale server
- Eric Boehs
Leo loves to hate and hates to love Twitter.
- Aaron Coe
Father's who tweet to much and the daughters who block them.
- Gary Kostrivas
Here we go!!
- Jonathan Day
It may have something to do with the manner of comment and how to get it to work lol
- RALPH
(repeatedly stunned)
- Preternat (Ken Cadby)
as I said Sans.org said last week was GREEN - media-hype does not comply with real infrastructure threats

I'm a teen and use Twitter, my friends (in the UK) are starting to use it
- Chris Gilmore
AT&T works fine in Oklahoma area... Great 3G coverage for such a low pop state
- Eric Boehs
That's why I have an Android Phone instead of a IPhone. I don't like AT&T.
- John Lyons
Chris Gilmore - same with me!
- Dakota O'Neill
MEEE!!!
- Adrian
too many of you tech heads with iphones
- EvilMonkey
sounds like we need to have a Global Twitter Support Group, now lets organize and use twitter to get the word out, LOL
- Dave T
T-Mobile has crap 3G coverage
- Eric Boehs
AT&T dies has soon has you enter a building here
- Fee501st
I'd switch to go to a Google Cell Network
- Mike
Exactly the same conversation we used to have 10 years ago RE dial-up providers.
- Ken Sheppardson
I have not thought about T Mobile of being an alternative, but my AT&T here in Florida runs pretty good
- RALPH
funny catfight for airtime - everybody is used to talk FIRST LOL
- Alex 'BuckyBit' Covic
the terrorists are coming!
- Dakota O'Neill
I wouldn't go back to Verizon. Each carrier has their own problems. I don't have any AT&T problems with my iPhone.
- David Rysz
I get 80 kbps on Rogers.... If it is a concentration problem, how do they do it in Japan and Singapore
- Jim Shaver
T-Mobile has great customer service but poor coverage service.
- Dale Feinstein
I use T-Mobile G1 for my phone and back it up with an iPod Touch.
- Gary Kostrivas
I couldn't be happier with my Palm Pre and Sprint these days, btw.
- Ken Sheppardson
thats a ridiculous line, if you jail break your iphone the terrorists win.
- mikemcmullan
Dale where are you ..? part of the country?
- TalkToMeGuy
its unlocking, not jailbreaking for T-Mob
- cxx dxx
Nice straw leo :P
- Eric Boehs
I'm looking at cell phones and going to be curious about how people feel about the MyTouch, since I refuse to go iPhone, though the Galaxy isn't far off...

Will there be a mass exodus from at&t when the iPhone ends up on Verizon?

The Google/Apple FCC saga will end with the FCC stepping in saying allow the app.

Yep, until the day the Tablet is announced. Ohh, Ahh.

@TalktoMeGuy: I am in southern New Jersey (Ocean County).
- Dale Feinstein
Yeah that tablet rumour is worrying me...
- Jonathan Day
Apple is not consistent with approval process.
- DesertWeather
Most of the people with iPhones I know have only a few apps and love it. GV isn't going to touch them
- Carey Lumeng
Google Voice is Sweet ! I use it a Lot !
- TalkToMeGuy
The developer note published on Saturday says that “based on the current app submission, 96 percent of applications are being approved within 14 days.”
- Eric Boehs
Google Voice is appealing to anybody who has more than one phone number of voicemail system, i.e. home and work. I think y'all are going just a *little* overboard with the "We only care because we're the tech elite" argument
- Ken Sheppardson
virtual arm wrestle!

What is a Chumby??

I like Apple, but I'm annoyed about Google-Voice getting blocked. I do know some people who really don't understand the point to Google Voice, and we can't explain it to them.

twitter is bigger then digg now, wow didn't know that

Google understands the nature of a distributed network infrastructure. My guess is Twitter... less.

bing will have them before the end ot the year, ha

I think the face recognition on Molly's Webcam is on - stopping the picture from time to time?
- Alex 'BuckyBit' Covic
Facebook is doing everything that Classmates.com wanted to do, except Classmates.com turned into a total ad agency.
- Garance Alistair
Yeah, if you write a page about a topic, guess what... it pops up pretty high in the list of relevant articles for that topic. (i.e. wikipedia)
- Ken Sheppardson
Plus Wikipedia often holds the answers to whatever you're searching google for.
- Jonathan Day
Where did google's deep search go, advanced search?
- Adrian
The "same old thing" aspect of Google is why I use Yahoo and Bing... and dmoz.
- TeraDyne Azurepaw
I took the Search Engine Blind Test and I picked Yahoo.

- Jim Bednarz
Are you a good writer if you are a good SEO-Writer = language will transform into - 1 2 3 blah talking points
- Alex 'BuckyBit' Covic
People like finding info in a familiar format... Wikipedia gives them that
- Jim Shaver
I find del,icio.us search continues to provide me with the best result.
- Adrian
I think one side-effect of Google being so successful is that fewer people have their own web pages with links to sites. And those other links used to be one of the ways Google decided what pages should be on the first page.
- Garance Alistair
Yes, if many people think an article is relevant... isn't it... you know... more likely to be relevant?
- Ken Sheppardson
so google has a twitter SUL lol

Veronica is right.
- Alex 'BuckyBit' Covic
I totally agree with Veronica.
- Jonathan Day
Funny how technology of all things makes us think about these "social" questions.
- Adrian
Not allowing "targeted messaging" on Twitter seriously constrains the potential to commercialize the service.
- Ken Sheppardson
I don't mind people who advertise "their stuff", but not an ad that someone is paying to insert their commercial in someone else's life.
- Garance Alistair
Molly is grand!
- James Larmore
Ken - valid point
- Alex 'BuckyBit' Covic
This discussion is immediately following a GoToMeeting ad? Hm.
- Ken Sheppardson
That is why Leo brought it up
- Hector
Ah... I tuned out during the ad. ;-)
- Ken Sheppardson
SOCIALISM!
- Adrian
A big problem with spam ads is that they suck. They are not interesting or helpful. Compelling ads or products don't usually make spam. Just a thought.
- Joel R
If you DM me with an add - It invades my privacy! That's why I unfollow!
- Alex 'BuckyBit' Covic
The line is most blurred on TWiT when it comes to Drobo on Macbreak and TWiP
- Ken Sheppardson
Alex, Scott, etc. are all fans of the product, who are also paid to "evangelize", in a sense
- Ken Sheppardson
You choose what twitter is for you, it can be about conversation with people who interest you or it can be following tonnes of random people.
- Jonathan Day
All of us are on Twitter to advertise.
- Ken Sheppardson
@Ken those are part of the PixelCorps though
- Jim Shaver
MollyRants are always AWESOME :)
- Alex 'BuckyBit' Covic
I don't like the idea because somebody could make it look like an ad but it might actually be say a website with a virus.
- Dakota O'Neill
We at times becomes enamored with brands.
- Adrian
Yes, Oprah is on twitter to advertise herself. But the people *FOLLOWING* Oprah are following her because they expect that. They want Oprah's ads.
- Garance Alistair
and could care less about advertising.
- Adrian
it really depends on how often the ads come up
- Daniel E. Renfer
@Garance true. so they should all leave twitter and make a oprah-ttsomething ;)
- Alex 'BuckyBit' Covic
Reminder, Twitter is brand driven, it's a personal brand.
- Adrian
Twitter will be history this time next year
- Rick
did the first podcasts have adds?
- EvilMonkey
no
- Jim Shaver
Every ad from somebody makes me unfollow him/her - period . It's a sell-out.
- Alex 'BuckyBit' Covic
Also, Twitter is the company which is spending all the money to make the service available, and these commercials are not financially helping Twitter.
- Garance Alistair
Humans are inherently internally inconsistent and hypocritical, and we don't like it when other people do things we think it's OK to do ourselves. We all just need to learn to live with it and move on. ;-)
- Ken Sheppardson
I am Mad about DIGG.COM's sponsored stories!!! I think that is just as messed up as ad tweets
- Nick Young
I love Molly Rants !! I finally lived long enough to hear bull crap and Oprah's name [brand] used in the same sentence !!
- TalkToMeGuy
I've been seeing a lot of twitter spam bots that have 4 random facts, and then one ad. I removed them
- Daniel E. Renfer
What if the ads were personally selected by the person on twitter ?
- Jason Cartwright
@Rick I agree, though I'd give it two years at the most
- TeraDyne Azurepaw
It was years before podcasts had ads
- Jim Shaver
as long as you put a mute tag in the tweet so I can mute it
- min
Leo has difficulty seeing other point of view here. As for me, I just won't follow an ad dropper. So some people will drop ads, and others won't. What's the big debate about?
- Preternat (Ken Cadby)
facebooks ads are just dirty
- Dakota O'Neill
Just let the market decide. If their content isn't important enough to you, you stop following, if their content is important to you, you're gonna continue following even if they have ads
- Stephen Pickering
Preternat: He's trying to reconcile his same basic reaction with the sponsorship system on TWiT
- Ken Sheppardson
too many url shorteners...
- decjr
URL shortening is a commodity with no marginal value. All the services will start to fall by the wayside, and it'll just become a feature of other sites and services.
- Ken Sheppardson
bittercakes. ahaha cute.
- Dakota O'Neill
Ken ok, but my point still is, how one person reconciles it can be different from others. His is not the only point of view.
- Preternat (Ken Cadby)
I like moourl because it has a cute cow on it.
- Jonathan Day
Preternat: I agree with you.
- Ken Sheppardson
Twitter: we couldn't find a buisness model, so we're shutting down
- Daniel E. Renfer
URL shortening is a short term arbitrage sort of opportunity. If you're building a business around it, you're doomed.
- Ken Sheppardson
tr.im had great stats too

To be fair, I have to add... I prefer his point of view. It's just not the only view.
- Preternat (Ken Cadby)
Bitly is gonna build a nice business around it
- Stephen Pickering
I agree and disagree, I follow certain people to advertise what they wrote or did not advertise someone elses product. I block people who only post ads, it's spam to me. I don't use twitter for ads, I use it more as an RSS in a way
- Dave Hoffman / N3PRO
from twhirl
Why can't Twitter automatically convert the shortened URLs to the actual URLs?
- Dale Feinstein
He needs money for his podcast not Twitter, Twitter is free his cost to buy stuff to make his broadcast better isn't, so ads help to make back the money he spends to bring the program to us.
- Jacob Chimilar
from iPod
marketing guys and spammers love url-shorteners - click, click like 20 years ago

- Ken Sheppardson
This conversation would be very different if @acedtect & @therealdvorak were here
- Mike
you have to be an engineer to be a patent lawyer, right ?
- cxx dxx
Going to law school to study patent law these days is equivalent to going into engineering to learn about buggy whip dynamics
- Ken Sheppardson
patents try to increase innovation where there is none. We have plenty of innovation in the tech world and the current patent regime stifles it

It used to be that you could apprentice with an attorney for seven years, and that would allow you to sit for the Cal BAR in CA. Not anymore. You have to take classes at a law school now. You can, however, pass law school and call yourself a JD (Juris Doctorate).

- Jonathan Day
No, Jonathan, you can't. 'cause they sneak in content during the ad ;-)

@Ken, Leo makes content out of the ads. He's just that good.

- Ken Sheppardson
I'm not taking that risk, there might some gems of content hidden in the ad in that case. That being said I might actually give Squarespace a try - need to sort out my wordpress.com blog.
- Jonathan Day
of course! it was cgi
- Alex 'BuckyBit' Covic
There's an online law school (non-ABA approved) which allows you to sit for the BAR for $3K plus per year. There's another law school which meets only M-TH at night only for people who want to have a law degree for nonprofit type purposes (People's Law School or something like that). $5K plus per year.
