16 Oct 2009Filed under: Software , How-tos , Tips and tricks , Internet Tools Before Snow Leopard was released, we were enjoying GrabUp for super-simple sharing of screenshots. It was a great little utility: After a brief setup, it automatically sent any screenshot to its servers (or your own) and added the resulting URL to the Clipboard. It was fast and very useful.

10 Oct 2009Filed under: Software , Tips and tricks , Odds and ends After several years of trying to figure out what task manager for Mac and iPhone worked best with my peculiar style of organization, I finally settled on Things from Cultured Code. The Mac application is easy to use, uncluttered, and can take advantage of many keyboard shortcuts, while the iPhone app iTunes Link gives me a portable version of the Things database to take on the road. While the iPhone app can do a local sync to a Mac, it still doesn’t do over-the-air syncing, which I hope Cultured Code will add in a future release.

1 Oct 2009Filed under: Multimedia , Software , How-tos , Tips and tricks While Front Row’s integration with iTunes and iPhoto provides a nice, seamless experience, there are times when your needs demand a not-so-integrated approach — say, for example, if you have an external hard drive full of videos that you’d like to watch on Front Row, but don’t necessarily want to import into iTunes or copy into your Movies.

30 Sep 2009Filed under: Tips and tricks , Odds and ends , Internet Tools Last night when the Apple store went down, I got tired of hitting refresh in Safari every few minutes while waiting for it to come back up, and went searching for something that would do the job for free . Now, this is not for coders who will laugh hysterically at my incompetence, but for those of you that are either lazy or don’t program at all. I fit both categories. Back in 2005 someone going by the moniker of Biovizier posted the solution on Macosxhints.com . It’s a little html snippet that will refresh any web page as frequently as you’d like, and its easily customizable for any page at all.

One way to address this “bag of hurt” is through the Skype iTunes link app. If you don’t already have the Skype app, download it — it’s a free download in the App Store .

30 Sep 2009Filed under: Tips and tricks The Dictionary.app in Snow Leopard has been driving me nuts. If you use LaunchBar or Spotlight (or probably any other method of sending a word to Dictionary.app), it opens a new window. And then another. And then another.
