I’m very pleased today to announce the release of Capsule, the developer’s code journal. Capsule replaces the scratch document you have…
GameTonight now creates a module for Panic’s excellent Status Board iPad app. The URL is simple, add ‘/statusboard’ to any metro…
I’ve just released an initial beta of Threads, a WordPress plugin I’ve been working on for about a year. The idea is simple: show posts…
Quite simply, the reaction to Capsule has far exceeded my hopes. I’m thrilled. As Capsule is a product in a nascent category, my biggest concern was that people wouldn’t immediately see the benefits it could provide. That clearly has not been the case. Capsule appears to be a solution to a problem people (at least…
A full reboot “fixed” this for me as well. I’m hopelessly dependent on this feature and don’t know how people survive without it.
There’s got to be a way in LaunchBar to see the currently playing song in iTunes right? Yup, choose iTunes and right arrow. Love LaunchBar.
Starting your Startup at FOWA Vegas 2011 | Lanyrd – Great deck from Joe Stump. (thanks Al3x) Mariners should consider trading Michael Pineda – Blog – MyNorthwest.com – this actually makes a bit of sense… How to find duplicate rows with SQL at Xaprb – I always have to look this up, bookmarking for future…
Mistyping commonly used @launchbar shortcuts can lead to interesting results. I’m listening to George Strait instead of launching Coda…
Amen! RT @echeng: LaunchBar is 50% off for 46 more hours (Mac OS X app I cannot live without) ow.ly/43QFy
I have to do basic arithmetic on a fairly regular basis. My tool of choice for the last few years has been LeanCalc. It does the job well for the most part, but it doesn’t ignore non 0-9 characters, I would commonly use it to calculate a percentage of a dollar value. I’d paste in…
I guess this is a pet peeve of mine, but why don’t any of the major browsers open a requested URL in the frontmost tab if that tab is empty (about:blank)? Camino got this right years ago, but Firefox, Safari and Chrome still open up a new tab next to the empty one. I can’t…
LaunchBar 5 – Release Notes – Version 5.0.3. Time to upgrade! The Basic Physics of Collisions and Thoughts on a Concussion-Preventing Helmet | GFMorris.com – interesting notes here. Harig: Rocco Mediate’s win shines focus on Fall Series – golf is the truest meritocracy in professional sports. The Slow Death of Overlapping Windows – “Its weird…
Reached the tipping point with MobileMe. Now enabling sync for Mail and Bookmarks (I don’t use Safari, but LaunchBar indexes them fine).
I’ve started building a list of applications that fill me with joy. LaunchBar – can’t imagine life without it. xScope – I don’t even use it that much, but when I do… so awesome. Pukka – I’ve been using Delicious as a central data store more of late. These aren’t all “must-have” apps, nor are…
Over the last five years I’ve heavily used MailTemplate and shadowClipboard. Both are great utilities, and neither works right on Snow Leopard (and no upgrades in sight). As a result, I’ve found workarounds. Rather than move to different utilities for these features, I’ve tried to simplify. I’m already hopelessly dependent on LaunchBar, so coming up…
Thoughts on Opera Unite | FactoryCity tecosystems – Google Wave: Tsunami or Microwave? The Q&A – excellent write-up Thinking about innovation and business models YouTube – John Hodgman at Radio & TV Correspondents’ Dinner (thanks Greg) Attention All Plugin Authors Selling a 16GB iPhone 2G – looks like an interesting option. Free Google Voice calls…
Buying an upgrade to LaunchBar 5. My second purchased upgrade (3 -> 4, 4 -> 5)… money very well spent.
Since the Air is a little light on hard drive space I’ve been a little bit picky about what I install on it. It’s a good way to figure out what your “must have” apps are – this is what made the cut for me: LaunchBar – this is the very first thing I installed.…
