  1. PowerMac G5 Quad Benchmarks

    MacRumors has reports of PowerMac G5 benchmarks. I actually downloaded a few different benchmark tools last week and ran them on my PowerBook so I could compare the results to the Quad when it arrives. My PowerBook g5 G4 1.5ghz with 1.5GB of RAM and a 5400 rpm HD scores a 38.49, directly after a…

  2. Should I Host Another WordPress Theme Competition?

    WordPress seems to be moving towards a very nice 1.6 release, and I’ve started getting inquiries from people who would like me to run another theme competition when version 1.61 is released (likely sometime in early 2006). I think it would be fantastic to have another WordPress theme competition, but I’m not completely sure I’m…

  3. LDAP for Tasks Pro™

    If you are a current or prospective Tasks Pro™ customer that would like to see Tasks Pro™ add LDAP integration, I’d like to talk to you about how you’d like it to work. This post is part of the project: Tasks Pro™. View the project timeline for more context on this post.

  4. E-mail Service Recommendations?

    The e-mail configuration on my server is the most complicated set-up we have on the box, and it’s also one of the most resource intensive (bayesian spam filtering). A big load of e-mails being accessed by one of our users over IMAP recently brought the box to a crawl. I’m looking at moving to a…

  6. Path Finder 4

    I’ve talked a little in the past about Path Finder, the Finder replacement I use on Mac OS X – for me, it’s definitely a better mousetrap . I’ve had the opportunity to use pre-release versions of Path Finder 4 during the development and I’m happy to say it’s a worthy successor and definitely something…

  7. Mac OS X Image Browsers/Batch Processors

    I’ve started looking at a bunch of image browsing/processing tools on OS X after watching Eric work with his Windows toolset. Does anyone have any recommendations of apps they really like? Some desired features: Quick rendering in the browser Batch creation of copies of the images Watermarking Sharpening A nice simple, clean, elegant UI Comments…

  8. Nasty PHP Oddity

    The current release versions of Tasks Pro™ and Tasks suffer from a nasty PHP oddity in their daily recurring task functionality. When you create a recurring task in Tasks Pro™/Tasks, all future occurrences are created in the database, and they are activated over time. I used a very basic system to set the dates on…

  9. Tech Cliff Notes

    Wouldn’t it be great if someone created a ‘Cliff Notes’1 site for daily tech news? A one ot two sentance summary for everything with buzz – hit the important points and move on. I’m getting too busy to follow all the news sites I have in the past, so I want my information more condensed.…
