  • Mac & Prism

    Following my implementation of a Flash based desktop widget for viewing RSS feeds, I decided to experiment with Mozilla Prism.   This idea is simple; rather than having to load up a web browser and type the url to a web app, you can instead create a mini app of it on your desktop. So [...]

  • Update!! Pretty up those stacks

To download the [...]

  • I’m not alone

    Seems that i’m not the only the one that isn’t a fan of the old IE browser. This is the icon for the Mac only CSSEdit. (By the way look in the bottom left corner) It made me smile non the less. Oh and IE/Windows fans, don’t bother with any silly comments!!

  • It’s here (literally)!

No doubt blogs worldwide will go mental with reviews [...]

Put simply it allows  you to control and view your Mac from any other Mac (running Leopard) via your .Mac account. Without going into too much detail [...]

  • Front Row in Leopard

    Just a quick note. On the Apple site, it states that you must have an Apple Remote in order to use Front Row in Leopard. This may be a bit of a bummer for you guys that don’t own one. Fear not, Front Row is always there and can be accesed by hitting Command + [...]
