I ordered it two days ago via Amazon — today the mailman handed it over to me.
Transcending CSS is the new masterpiece by Andy Clarke, the guy behind Stuff and Nonsense. Well, it actually is out there since 7th November 2006, but I couldn’t afford the time to further look at it — until two days [...]

Schreibtisch-Stöckchen

This is a german post by way of an exception…
Sebastian hat mir ein interessantes Stöckchen aus der Schweiz zugeworfen (danke!) — nachdem ich mich vor Monaten mal bei der Flickr Group My Cluttered Desk beteiligt habe, ist mal wieder ein aktuelles Bild gefordert, das nur den Schreibtisch zeigt — im einem Zustand, der beim normalen [...]

Current MacHeist offer is near expiration

The apps you can get at MacHeist until the next 8 hours are over.
I stroke out the ones I think I don’t need at all — the other ones are cool, but I didn’t buy the bundle.

App: Sync now! — Automatic synchronisation revisited

The day before yesterday I fixed my script that opens up iSync, starts a synchronisation and afterwards terminates iSync again.
You can use the AppleScript as a standalone as well and define a keystroke with Quicksilver to execute it — that’s way faster than to open up iSync and to start a synchronisation by hand.

Update: Auto-iSync your mobile phone with your Mac

After implementing my solution to automate synchronising the calendar and address book of my new Sony Ericsson K800i and my Mac two days ago, I ran into problems multiple times — a short time after booting it up I could hear my MacBook Pro’s fan (very unusual — normally it’s quiet as hell!) and I noticed it [...]

Sometimes I need to test a website with Microsofts Internet Exploder Explorer to ensure incompatability. Thanks to Parallels now it’s right there at my fingertips — the new Beta boots Windows right into Mac OS X and enables you to use Windows applications side by side with your Mac OS X ones.

Auto-iSync your mobile phone with your Mac

→ Important Update
While playing around with my Siemens S65 I once purchased BluePhone Elite to …well, I don’t know what exactly I wanted to do with it — but it was very nice to hear a greeting and have iTunes paused and re-started whenever I entered or left the range that rendered a blutooth connection between [...]

How to enable Apple’s iSync to work with your Sony Ericsson K800i

Update: you don’t need a plugin to sync the K800i anymore—Apple added native support. See this post: Syncing mobile phones with your mac just got easier.

As I chose the Sony Ericsson K800i for my new phone, I took into account that Sony Ericsson mobiles usually work very well together with Mac OS X. So I [...]
