My technology week from hell
Thursday, January 31st, 2008So, usually I love technology. Usually I rant and rave about how it makes my life easier and how I’m able to do so many great things with technology that my friends just can’t understand.
Not this week.
Last weekend, I went back home for the Australia Day long weekend, which was fantastic — catching up with [...]
Apple partners with Quiksilver for free iTunes
Thursday, November 29th, 2007Recently, in the TRACKS surfing magazine I was interested to find the following iTunes card bundled inside the front cover.
Previously, I’d only ever seen cards like these at the Back-to-Uni promotions that Apple runs at Uni Campuses around the country. Apple and Quiksilver created a unique partnership here where both companies gain exposure, but also [...]
Review: Windows Remote Desktop Client for Mac 2.0 (beta)
Tuesday, August 28th, 2007As many mac users would know (even though we hate to admit it) there are sometimes where we need to run a Windows based application.

Naturally, the first thing I did was go to my very own website and checked out how [...]
Twitterific 2.0beta
Monday, March 26th, 2007I just downloaded Twitterific 2.0 beta 4, so I just thought I’d give a quick run down on my impressions.
At the moment, I can’t see too many differences from what I’ve seen with 1.1, except I’m getting an error sometimes saying it can’t connect to the xml feed - but that could be a problem [...]
OpenSource Software for MacOSX
Thursday, July 27th, 2006Thanks to a story on Digg I’ve come across some fantastic software for MacOSX that’s open source, easy to use and a good add-on to make my life a little easier on my PowerBook. It turns out that a few of my readers use the OSX platform (more than I would have thought), so hopefully [...]
