My World

Quote of the frickin' day!

UNIX is user friendly, it just picks its friends carefully.

So true, so true.

My Widget Contribution

I don't know why I haven't done this sooner seeing as its quite easy to do, and that Apple has graciously provided all the tools necessary to build Dashboard Widgets. Anyhoo, here is my contribution. A widget which shows the RSS feed to both eztv and vtv, the two best places to get TV Series torrents in my humble opinion. Please download it and give me some feedback.

Ps: Does anyone wanna work on an icon and the look of it? Lemme know

My [Windows 7 = Closer To Heaven?] Post

Now this actually made me laugh. Honestly, as cheesy and corny as it is though I think Microsoft is finally trying to portray a more comedic side shall I say? Anyway, it was laugh out loud funny to me!

My Mojo

Ok, anyone who's anyone and who uses iTunes I beseech you. Go and get Mojo! So that we can share songs over the interwebs : )

My Goodness...

So I was using my sister's Dell laptop which was loaded with Vista, cursing and swearing at it like all us true IT people should do and lo and behold I found the root of the problem. See for yourselves. I did not modify these screenshots in any way, I swear!

My Other "Religion"

Well ok, so maybe not literally. But its one of my passions. What you may ask? Well, I am quite passionate about Star Wars. Yes, yes I know your geek-o-meter probably went *zingggg* but who cares, I'm a proud geek! So to all you other Star Wars fans out there, check out these two videos. Awesome stuff. Creativity is everywhere lol.

My Big Anticipation

Ok so by now you guys should know that Apple will be holding an event on the 9th of September (10th for us in Malaysia because of all that time zone differences and crap). Anyhoo, if you don't already know - SHAME ON YOU - or well maybe I'm just a bigger geek/nerd than I thought I was and most of the world doesn't wait hand and foot for every word that falls out of "The Steve's" mouth (no, not our stevemaesto lololol but the big-kahuna-at-Apple Steve). So, yeah there's this big event coming up and Apple's all hype about it and it seems bigger and greater things are to come (when are they ever not?).

So whats it all about? Well, it seems from what rumours I've been able to gather (i.e from macrumors, tuaw, and all the other usual sites us macgeeks frequent) we might be looking at a refresh of the iPod line-up, iTunes8, new iPhone firmware with alleged "hidden features" and maybe, just maybe... New machines. Well here's to hoping. As at time of writing I can't access Apple's site.
