The whole documentary and Apple's approach to design can be summed up in this one sentence Ive makes: "..that's quite obsessive isn't it?"

Perhaps may I suggest using QuickSilver or google quick search box with iTunes? QuickSilver lets you add global keyboard shortcuts and oodles of quick access to iTunes without ever going to iTunes.

Finally! Now, all that's left is to have something like Loopt with this, so you can check on your friends to see if they are nearby for that serendipitous outing.

This is exactly why I love HN. Nowhere else could you expect the founders to take time to excite (and educate) us in such detail :-) Congrats Matt & Xobni. I hope that fund means that we'll get an Apple Mail & Thunderbird Xobni soon

Looks like I missed it as well. Anything noteworthy so far? Something that even non-devs would get excited about?

I had a similar situation except that I wasn't as smart as you to consider books in the first place. But, I did use some really good tools. I highly recommend using Prefuse (yes, it's java but it ships with great examples and it's open sour

To summarize Google's fight against Apple: "When Eric Schmidt slumps his shoulders and says that Steve Jobs is 'the best CEO in the world,' it's not because he's shaking with fear. He's just being nice." Google may do no evil, but they defi

I haven't read much on these kinds of books, but these things that I've picked up have helped and seem like common sense: 1) Don't anything big on credit unless you have the cash to back it up. 2) Stick your paycheck in the savings (or some
