35+ Social Media Tools That Make Life Easier
via CSS Globe.
Nice, new look. Much improved UI over the previous version. Good job!
Great commercial. (Nothing more needs to be said...except for this, via Gruber).
I've used a few of these in the past, but it's nice to see what else is out there. EE and WP get my personal votes (with a edge to EE).
If you're at all interested in the concept of "IP TV", or podcasting for that matter, check out Leo Laporte's setup for Twit Live.
Some interesting effects and uses here. I just hope they don't get overused.
It's been a while since I've listened to this podcast. This was a good episode to start back with.
Handy tools for everyone to have. (Via Digg.)
Netflix meets Toys R Us? As a parent, I think it's a great idea. (I wish I'd have thought of it.)
Great write-up by Sean on the power of Expression Engine.
I just stumbled across this site a while back and thought it would be a nice one to share with the world. They've got some very nice (and free) textures and texture links to boot!
If you have an iPhone, and use Google's many Web apps, you'll love the integration changes that they've made. Very fast! (Even on Edge.)
Check out your local Apple retailer tommorrow at 6 pm. It should be fun.
I had just about given up on GM vehicles...wow. Nice site too (although in Flash).
Radiohead it trying something new with their new album, "In Rainbows". Their letting their fans decide what to pay. In support of this move, which will hopefully cause a ripple effect in the music industry, Purebuttons, LLC paid $1,000 for the album. Rock on!
I'm a Twitter fan, but this is cool news none-the-less.
My first purchase on the iTunes Wifi Store. Amazing lyrics, amazing voice, my new favorite.
Amazing the man is alive. Even more amazing, he wants to race again this year. Force FTW!
A great site with a nice variety of free, worn texture images. Via Cameron.
Dale Earnhadt Jr's new ride (at least one of them) for 2008. Props to Kevin King for the car design!
Over 200 free and open-source programs with an educational aim.
If you're one of the early iPhone adopters (like me) and were wondering how to get your store credit, here's how.
Not a huge fan of rally racing, but I knew of the name and I enjoyed watching highlights of him. Want to see determination, look no further than this clip from last year's X Games. Condolences go out to the McRae family for not only the loss of Colin, but also his son, Johnny as well as the other victims of the helicopter crash.
Rogue Amoeba has released a great application that will turn your AAC files into ringtones. (OS X only)
For those that don't want to switch to AT&T but want to "flick" their songs.
A nice, clean look for Apple's site. Nicely matches their new ID direction.
