Google Reader and Mac/iOS RSS readers that sync →
Brent weighs in on the precarious ecosystem that the world of RSS readers built on Google Reader currently live in now that Google has started messing with the functionality provided by Reader.
There’s no single set of apps that I use as much as my rss readers, NetNewsWire on my Mac, and Reeder on my iOS devices. This change worries me greatly, mainly because I am unaware of any other...

Some great advice that originated with the late Al Davis. Seems to me that a lot of people in the technology business could use this advice these days.
Guy Kawasaki - What I Learned From Steve Jobs →
This is a must read list. Guy’s writing is thoughtful and precise, and his points are just amazing. My favorite, which Netflix would love this morning, is “Changing your mind is a sign of intelligence.”

I rarely use my Canon S90 at this point, favoring my iPhone 4 and Camera+. When I really want to shoot, it’s my...
