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.

Rose’s leak of the app’s impending release did not include any precognition of when the app will actually make it into our hands, nor was price information available.
Filed under: Software , Odds and ends , Freeware , Internet Tools , First Look Google released a new tool for Mac users today. With Google Quick Search Box (QSB), you can perform searches of anything on your Mac or the Web with a few keystrokes. After downloading QSB , I installed it and gave it a test drive on my MacBook Air. After a short first look, I can say that QSB is going to be in constant use on my Macs.
Filed under: WWDC , Internet Tools , iPhone , MobileMe Coming about six weeks too late for Steve Sande , the new Find my iPhone feature demoed at WWDC will enable you to locate your iPhone on a map by logging into me.com. Sadly, I doubt that feature will help those of us who accidentally knock their phones behind the bed or get stuck between the couch cushions, but at least you’ll know if it’s in the house
The outside of the box said "Windows base machine or better", so I bought a Mac.
