I am kind of a big fan of MacHeist.com who puts together (yearly) a pretty well-curated bundle of awesome Mac apps (sorry windozers) from smaller developers for super-cheap. Right now, they have a few sweet programs for FREE over at their site, including WriteRoom (a really cool word processor that hides everything else on your screen, freeing you from distraction), ShoveBox (a sweet note/asset saving application that acts like a scrapbook/to-do list), as well as Twitteriffic and a couple of other cool apps. The more people sign up, the more free stuff gets unlocked, so do it.
not the quickest throughput i’ve ever had, but it’ll do. go to http://help.benm.at on your iPhone and download/install the appropriate carrier settings–BOOM!
Live, from the future! I am on a Virgin America flight from JFK-LAX and am wordpressing from the sky in between helpings of Glenlivet 12 on the rocks. Unfortunately, they don’t carry ABC on the tv’s here so I can’t watch the Lakers/Magic NBA Finals Game 1 and have to resort to @russbengtson and the espn.com coverage.
Hulu works, YouTube works, ichat works, facebook works, i am loving it.
BooneOakley.com – portfolio site writ as interactive youtube video
Boone Oakley takes advantage of youtube’s interactive links to produce a portfolio site. Clever. Well executed. First, listen to the sound of a million creatives smacking their foreheads and then color me jealous.
