  1. @osteslag 2G iPod Touch > paying $60/month. (I pay about $100/year for my phone and end each year with 1000s of unused minutes.)
  2. @nevenmrgan @cabel @jsnell - Yeah, why didn't they pick a great name like ISO/IEC MPEG-4 Part 10 or ITU-T H.264?
  3. It'd be nice if 10.5.latest full installer disc images were available to ADC Select/Premier members.
  4. As definitive a victory as I imagined possible: http://bit.ly/FVtou (via @jeresig)
  5. Today's Unix gem: comm http://bit.ly/AxxdT (Hint: diff does not deal well with giant files)
  6. Turns out my Firefox 3.5 bug http://bit.ly/vUXcE was caused by the Split Browser extension: http://bit.ly/10qKpb
  7. @gswoods - Just checked. Sadly, my browser.tabs.closeWindowWithLastTab is set to true already.
  8. New milestone: got a friend request from my mother-in-law on Facebook.
  9. Morning scare: got the "owl" account suspension screen http://bit.ly/2d6skP on twitter.com. Then it went away. #preemptivefreesiracusa
  10. My favorite debugging song: The Imperial March. http://bit.ly/8kcM3 (iTunes Store link)
  11. @bdsexton - I think @gswoods may have the answer: http://bit.ly/FCLCm Will try tomorrow.
  12. Auto-updating for offline web apps is apparently part of HTML5 (and supported in iPhone): http://bit.ly/WfUoK (Thanks, @nevenmrgan)
  13. @stevenf - Gmail messages also sprouted grab handles for me tonight.
  14. @nevenmrgan Ha! I re-downloaded it manually and deleted the old one today! How does the auto-update work? (In 140 characters, of course.)
  15. Can't reproduce my Firefox 3.5 bug http://bit.ly/vUXcE at home. Maybe it's some extension I have at work.
  16. @troutmonfalco - You need to use Safari to download the app initially, but after that no net required. Simple example: http://mrgan.com/gb/
  17. @troutmonfalco - Well they're not "native" in that they're not compiled Obj-C code. They're HTML/CSS/JavaScript only, but still local.
  18. @inkedmn It'd be 100% local with local storage. Download the book once, read/page/search locally. Watch for such a reader app eventually…
  19. @marcoarment - Anyway, my point was that it'd be possible, not necessarily advisable.
  20. @marcoarment OTOH, if I just want to see the last handful of URLs, instapaper.com is faster for me. No "Updating…" and spinner waits.
