Knee-jerk review of Ymail v. Gmail (v. Mail.app)
Not really sure why, but I harbored the delicious notion that I could somehow be the one to snag felix@ymail.com yesterday, after all wasn’t it the point? That somehow releasing ymail.com and rocketmail.com would allow those who couldn’t get the names they wanted @yahoo.com to now get it? Because there’s not more than 3 Felix’s [...]

New App: FriendFeed Room Directory
So my inability to discover any rooms on FriendFeed was frustrating me, so I spent a few hours and built the FriendFeed Room Directory. It’s super simple right now, I wasn’t sure exactly how many rooms there were so I decided to err on the side of simplicity - basically you can create categories and [...]

FriendZone, see who’s in your Friendfeed circle
What seems like awhile ago I was in a Friendfeed conversation about my FFLCC when Russellreno suggested “Felix: Is it possible to 1) use your work to determine the number of FF members or 2) determine who is the center of the FF universe.”
I thought about that and while I quickly ruled out [...]

Breakfast Links: Kidnapping, Ricky Schroeder & TV Themes
First post-snow Monday Art.
Awesome! We (America) just told those lobsterbacks that we can go and kidnap British citizens if we damn well pleased. Those wig wearers thought that we were only talking about kidnapping those involved in terrorism but we got the last word in when we told them that our law applies to anyone [...]

GeekFindr: VectorMagic
There comes a time in everyone’s life where one has to shrink an image that doesn’t look very good when you’re done. Case in point, this links post I did awhile ago where I posted a line drawing of an archer. The original was sizeable so I needed to shrink it. Pushing that bad boy [...]
Review: Wrike (v. Basecamp)
A couple folks pointed out Wrike.com in the comments of some of my GoPlan posts as another option in the online project management game. To set the mood, I am a Basecamp user, have been so for a bit now. I go through phases with it, sometimes active, sometimes less so, but thus far it [...]
Slow week…
by ronin
Lost among the recent Apple iPhone firmware update and subsequent iBricking and iLawsuits and iPundits eviscerating Apple for eschewing third party apps, Apple has quietly launched the iPhone WebApps section of their website. Does anyone still care? I would hope so since web apps are still the only non-Apple apps that you can use [...]
Clipperz v. Passpack, Round 2
I’ve spent a little more time thinking about Clipperz and Passpack (see my Clipperz review and my PassPack review for some background info). The short answer is - I think these are both worthy apps, with differences that will cause each one to appeal to different people. My preference is slightly towards Clipperz, except for [...]
Review: Bloglines Beta (v. Google Reader)
Now that I’ve switched to Google Reader full time from my half-baked system of Firefox Live Bookmarks (which I still use and love) and a few feeds in my ex-Palm Treo 650’s news reader, I’m interested in online feed readers. I had checked out Bloglines before but was left unimpressed - as a reader it [...]
Review: PassPack (v Clipperz) - passwords on the iPhone!
UPDATE: Marco (from Clipperz) just posted that they’re already hard at work on an iPhone version, hampered only by their lack of an iPhone. :) I’m excited, choice is good, competition makes everyone better.
So, one of the things I miss on my iPhone is a secure password management application. It doesn’t have one and Clipperz.com [...]
