Connor’s rantlet, AWSOM PixGallery for Wordpress photo galleries from awsom.org. Michael Gorman’s review of the Nokia N810 Internet tablet: Nokia N810 main page, Specifications Page, OS 2008 Page (operating system for the Nokia N810), Maemo Linux Project page, Wavefinder Page for the Nokia N810. Buffalo tech support rocks from buffalotech.com when they help me diagnose my problem and install firmware AND are Mac friendly!

In Chit Chat Across the Pond Bart and I discuss various Twitter clients for the Mac: Twitterific from iconfactory.com, Twitterpost only available at apple.com/downloads/macosx/email_chat/twitterpost.html but it doesn’t work, TwitterPod which DOES have proxy access but a lame interface from drikin.com/twitterpod, and finally Spaz from funkatron.com/spaz which works, but has no proxy access and has an offensive name in some languages. here’s a link to Bart’s blog where he talks about each of them: bartbusschots.ie. And finally my rant about not being able to sync contacts to my iPhone or iPod for two days.
