Mark Finkle: WebRunner & App Styling
The Hometown Battle: Boston vs Denver - Micah and I will be in attendence for game 5, should there be one.
Aaand we’re funded! - congrats to the Socialthing team.
Otter! - heh.
Family - this is also why Mac microISVs can do well.
Everything’s Coming Up Milhouse - my neighbor is talking about replacing his windows box with a Mac and he’s very excited about it.
Horsing around in the Solomon Islands - serious rig, indeed.
Unfair, unethical World Series ticket sales - StubHub charges a premium, but seriously reduces headaches.
Startup Weekend: Room for Improvement - lots of false steps with the Startup Weekend concept so far. I think largely because it’s so loosely defined and the leaders, while having the best of intentions, lack experience in building companies/products/projects.
Sanitize your input - good stuff.
Jonathan Schwartz’s Weblog: ZFS Puts Net App Viability at Risk?

Their objectives were clear - number one, they’d like us to unfree ZFS, to retract it from the free software community. Which reflects a common misconception among proprietary companies - that you can unfree, free. You cannot.

(thanks Steve)
Why Enterprise Software Sucks - this is one of the main reasons I left enterprise software.
Site-specific browsers and GreaseKit
A Localization Horror Story - crap, I don’t handle this in my localization code either.
The Leopard Developer Dance - again? - this is one of the few times when being a web developer results in fewer headaches.
You Software and Leopard - I use You Control Desktops on my laptop, but don’t envy them now having to compete with “free”.
Daring Fireball: Leopard - I’m ordering my upgrade through John’s link to support Daring Fireball.
Happy Leopard Day - pre-installed SVN and a nicer side dock, excellent!
Life after Text Link Ads - ~~I’m down to a 4/10 as well, may have to pull the Text Link Ads from this site as well~~ My page rank is NA now - I’ve pulled the Text Link Ads from my site.
I Believe in Murphy’s Law - I’m considering doing a clean install of 10.5 and copying over my data (like I do with a new computer), but probably will just do an upgrade due to time constraints.
A few Leopard Points - Ethan has me looking forward to upgrading.
What a nightmare! (Leopard upgrade) - one backup is never enough, and Time Machine is no replacement for a SuperDuper copy. You want both, one Time Machine disk and probably two SuperDuper disks (alternate days).
David Ascher: Gmail & Thunderbird IMAP Goodness
IMPORTANT: Upgrade to Spanning Sync v1.1 Before Upgrading to Leopard to Avoid Data Loss - sync is hard, data loss is bad.
Fixing the Transparent Leopard Menu Bar (without software) - a subtle Leopard menu bar hack.
