Just received first batch of Custom GelaSkins
I’ve been a long-time fan of GelaSkins as the perfect sort of protection for my iProducts. They give you the perfect stickiness so the damned things don’t fly out of your hands when you use them. Today I received the first batch of shots using my own photos, and they turned out great and delivered [...]
26 Percent of Wired’s Mobile Traffic Comes From the iPad
26 Percent of Wired’s Mobile Traffic Comes From the iPad Predictable, given the audience of Wired.com. Doubly predictable given how great browsing is on iPad with your fingers.
The iPad Review
In which I wax on most everything but books on the device. It’s been over two weeks that the iPad has been on the market in the US. I’m writing this post on the iPad, in fact, in a moving car on the way to Canyonville, Oregon for a lovely weekend at the casino with [...]
Launching the Free iPad Wallpapers gallery
If you’re looking for something different for your iPad backgrounds and lock screens, here is a gallery of some of my recent and more popular-ish photos for your downloading pleasure. They’re resized for 1024×1024 so they should scale and rotate right on the iPad. For a quick preview of the first 18, check the slide [...]
Scoble’s interview with @ranajune on her “Destroy the Silence” iPad DJ project
YouTube – The iPad DJ This is fantastic. Destroy the Silence
Jeff Jarvis either sees the future, or misses the point
The iPad: Where Creativity Goes to Die There’s much ado about what the iPad won’t do. Frustrating to see with just three days on the market. For wild hand-wringing and sky-is-falling paranoia, check out Jarvis’s post.
Winer doesn’t like iPad; highlights why I do
Is iPad a game-changer? (Scripting News) Dave Winer isn’t keen on the iPad, and points out a number of short-comings in the platform that I agree with, though his overall bent is negative compared to mine. This last point, however, pretty much nails the upside: the importance of the iPad, and the iPad platform, comes [...]
Joe Clark on expertise
Denial of expertise At a certain point, you have to admit you aren’t good enough to do something better than an expert could do it even if the technical option exists for you to give it a shot anyway. There’s been a lot of hubbub about the iPad and hackery. I think there are plenty [...]
iPad’s really are charging — they’re just trying to fool you
iPad Not Charging? Not Really. Yeah, I didn’t get bit by this myself, but it’s a big deal. It amounts to a smack on the wrists for Apple UX people who didn’t button this issue up tight pre-launch, but it’s something that we should all remember. From RWW: Generally speaking, RTFM is not enough. Thinking through [...]
Pure art in the iPad – Teardown pics from iFixit
iPad Teardown – iFixit I don’t have my iPad yet so I’m doing my very best to reserve judgement on just how it’s going to change things. But based on iFixit’s teardown, I think I can safely say that there is an equal amount of engineering inside this thing as there is pure art.
Andy Ihnatko on iPad, Multitasking, and lousy tech reporting
Andy Ihnatko’s Celestial Waste of Bandwidth (BETA) » iPad and Multitasking Couldn’t agree more. So it disappoints me to see commentators on TV today dinging the iPad for a lack of multitasking. A tech expert whose mission is to communicate tricky technology to civilian audiences can’t let that pitch go by with a flat “no.” [...]
