The new Tumblr iPhone app
This is enough of a update to make me blog again. I’m pretty sure my blogging is a function of pretty software and the dashboard is super-pretty.
They need a loverly Mac client though - sometimes I want a BIG keyboard, and really don’t like the feel of websites, even under Chrome. Apps always feel better.

#spotify #mac needs to do a better job of showing whether it’s the selected app or not. It’s always the same colour and I can never tell.
The latest #chrome #mac nightly has much improved scrolling and resizing plus download progress bars - go grab it: http://tr.im/wIKF
Why can’t my iPhone automatically back its self up over the air to MobileMe? It can sync OTA, isn’t backup just a *thorough* sync?

Does anyone else get a massive amount of users trying to add them as contacts on Skype? Is there any way to stop it?

Okay, full credit to Rails here. I created a versioned storage system in 7 lines of code.
Remember kids - don’t call any DB columns ‘class’ when using rails. That makes it go boom!
Why would Facebook pay to buy something that aggregates what they provide?
Come on Apple, new iPhone OS please! I’m tired of mine needing a reboot twice a week…
Does anyone know about the status of the Spotify iPhone client? I’m using Spotify more and having it on my iPod touch would be spiffy!
That’s it Spotify; suggest another country album to me and you’re getting deleted!
Wow - all of a sudden Google Chrome for Mac suddenly runs plugins well. Cool!

Skype access for Skype for Mac is SWEEEEET! (Well, the price hurts a little).
To keep Google on their toes, type Bing into their search engine from time to time.

I am abusing the Apple bug tracker. Ten bugs in the last five days! Boom!
Look in your iPhone crash reports folder (~/Library/Logs/CrashReporter/<phone_name>/) and look for: aggregated - Apple is watching!
Five bugs submitted toApple, three knocked down by their engineers today. High hopes for the next beta.
Does everyone remember the first time they found out they could sound like Darth Vada by talking into a fan while it was on?
Why do people keep quoting the number of iPhone apps available? Most of them are shit. I use about 10 daily out of 40,000.
The current iPhone beta is just pissing me off. Mail crashes + Messages crashes - I can’t actually use the bloody thing for communications.

Okay, no one update to [redacted] 3.1b2 with iTunes 8.2.1. Boom!
iTunes 8.2.1 isn’t supported by [redacted] 3.1b2. Thanks. I have a iPod with a nice pink screen only. How do I kick it out of recovery mode?
r @stroughtonsmith I wish Apple had just sold the damn thing carrier-free through their stores - that would have shaken up the industry…
#chrome #mac got a new look (a bit nicer) and broke the omnibar dropdown, so I’d call that an overall loss.
r @jordanmoore beware of groups that let you register for really chaep and then charge you £20 to do anything with it (f**k uk2.net).
R @itsdavidhughes yea, and when the fuck are they going to have an iPhone/iPod touch client?
Everyone who programs Cocoa should read this: http://bit.ly/QkHk2
r @stuartgibson yea, I feel like I’ve been waiting for that since my first iPod!
[redacted] 3.1 remembers what song you were playing before sync.
Are ya ever worried there may be a programming language you may not know how to parse XML in?
