On June 11th, 2007, Apple held the WWDC Keynote where they talked about three things. Leopard, Safari for Windows, and iPhone apps. I don’t need to replay this for you all, but I will anyway - the Leopard announcements were for the most part rehashes, and Safari for Windows was simply fantastic […]

iPhone/Safari Notes

Safari on iPhone has a number of things that are NOT implemented. Here’s a list of things that don’t seem to work (and I’ll be adding more as time goes on):
Javascript:

window.onmousedown
window.onclick
window.onscroll

CSS:

overflow:hidden
position:fixed
position:static
-webkit-column-*

If you find any more, please leave them in the comments and I’ll add them to the list.

Growing Pains

When I started this site in 2003, I didn’t really know what to do with it. It started off as a faux-blog, during the blogging revolution, but all I was trying to do was carve out a little hole in the Web where I could put stuff. Since then, it’s expanded to be […]

Coda’s 5 Fatal Flaws

Today, Panic released their first new major app in a long time. Named Coda, it’s a tool for serious web developers who want an Xcode-like tool for web development. It integrates a lot of tools into one app, which is a very nice thing. Unfortunately for me, Coda’s still missing a lot […]

What happened to iTunes?

iTunes was released on January 9, 2001, at Macworld San Francisco. It was a huge deal at the time. Like, really huge. The big deal Mac MP3 players at the time, well, sucked as music jukeboxes. They were just that - MP3 players. that left the organization up to the end […]

Zune vs. iPod - Hands-On

Microsoft’s Zune. I swore to give the Zune an honest look when it actually began materializing on the Internet. I wouldn’t be a Mac zealot for the sake of being a Mac zealot - I’d actually give it a fair and honest run through. Well, as it came out a couple days […]

WWDC 2006 Experiences

Before last week, I’d never been to a Worldwide Developer’s Conference. Hell, I’d never even been to San Francisco. So, in June, when Apple sent me the email saying that I was getting a free ticket through the door, I was very excited. Two months later, on Saturday, August 5th, and I’m […]

I write this hot on the heels of a post I made a few weeks ago, citing my insignificant attempt at turning the world away from the Dark Side of IE. Since that started, the use of MSIE by my readers has gone down to 26%. Certainly better than 33%, but not groundbreaking […]

Check out the About Me page. I actually got around to writing it. And I made it a little different by using a special stylesheet.

Anyone vaguely familiar with RIT can most likely attest to one thing: the ratio of males to females is very skewed. The official ratio for the 2003-2004 academic year is 2:1, male to female. While that’s the official head count, looking around the campus, you get the impression that the actual ratio is […]
