If you’re arriving here after following Zeldman’s link to my AppleScripts, then I’d like to welcome you to my humble corner of the internet.
If you use OS X and have been frustrated with the lack of a method in any browser to view web page source in an external editor, then check out the scripts. You’ll like them :-)
This is too cool: I just picked up (finally) an Apple Newton MessagePad 2100 (the last model Apple ever produced), and I’ve set about turning it into a web server, using some nifty software by the name of NPDS (Newton Personal Data Sharing).
I’ll apparently be getting into Newton stuff in much more depth in the near future, since I am now so completely taken with this darling of a machine. I’m already turning into a full-fledged Newton Junkie™. If you are a fan of the Newton, you might want to check out Newted.net, a great community site for Newton owners.
Oh, go ahead and visit my Newton: newton.webgraph.com:8088 — it may not be available all the time, but most hours of the day I intend to have it up and running. If I start having too much fun with the Newton itself, I may have to buy another one just so I can play :-)
Apple’s Safari is now my browser of choice on OS X. Chimera is a solid #2, but the pure speed of Safari just blows me away. This is just 15 minutes after downloading the beta version.
The additional features (SnapBack, WHOO-HOO!) are stellar, especially the bookmark management, which I believe will make Windows (and OS 9) users salivate.
Safari is not the only new application announced by Apple today, but it is surely the coolest. Did I mention it fully supports web standards? Knowing Apple, I bet its support of said standards is really support, and I’m looking forward to testing many CSS layouts in Safari tonight…
Oh, and if anyone wants to buy me a 17″ Powerbook G4, I won’t object :-)
OK, so I wanted a website, somewhere to put all my thoughts (well, most of them anyway), music, photos, projects, artwork, etc. for all the world to see.
Here it is.
