Check out 'Air Video', plays anything from your machine to your iPad over wifi without syncing. Works remarkably well.

Sometimes 'technically correct' isn't always the best kind of correct. Thanks, Futurama.

Were you in the same room? I found mine to do some weird stuff when two phones could hear one another, probably due to the new noise canceling stuff.

This looks fairly interesting, at first glance. Is there a similar document for C by itself?

That's why there should be a subscription option so the barrier of a micropayment disappears. I'd pay a subscription fee for (for example) unlimited TV shows and movies from iTunes, but I don't buy shows on iTunes because they cost $2 a pi

Cool graphic. They misspelled 'attorneys' though. Also, Valve doesn't use bittorrent, they just have a bunch of servers.

You can use a Macbook in closed-lid mode to use only an external display. Also, if you open the lid afterwards, you can hit 'detect displays' to wake up the internal display. No reconnecting necessary.

That mouse-tracking canvas stuff in the background of his blog is pretty cool. I didn't notice it until it tracked my mouse pointer from the text to the tab bar.

This is a good article, but clearly written by someone who is a manual transmission fanboy. I drive a manual, too, but I recently switched from an automatic and I know why automatics are more popular - they're easier to use, and you don't

That's because Fox News isn't really a news channel anymore, they're more of a 24/7 entertainment/reality TV thing pretending to be a news channel. No wonder their ratings are so much higher - news is boring compared to entertainment.

I love how they think their network's reputation is 'beginning' to change, and that it isn't already hopelessly ruined.

This is pretty awesome. I wish that more APIs were better designed, though I think that the best APIs come out when you can iterate on their design with enough flexibility to remove the pain points and common questions. The author gets it

Actually, it is surprisingly serial, especially for getting off the plane. I've sat in the back of an airplane for 30 minutes while one person at a time gets their stuff out of the overhead bins, because you can't pull your suitcase down u

I've seen 'Hey, this is important!' before: on a gmail account that had its password compromised. I seem to recall that it was 'you might be compromised, you should verify your secondary address for account recovery' You might want to chec

It's definitely biased, some of those charts are extremely misleading, especially the later ones. I like the one which shows when Democrats take control of Congress.

I bet these people were typing in 'facebook login' into the Firefox URL bar, which did an I'm Feeling Lucky search on Google. Most days, that takes you to the actual Facebook login page, but that day it went to ReadWriteWeb. How confusing
