Important Information About Your iPad 3G
AT&T just sent me a nice email about the theft of my private data last week. I find it interesting that this message was sent at 9:45PM on Sunday night.
June 13, 2010
Dear Valued AT&T Customer,
Recently there was an issue that affected some of our customers with AT&T 3G service for iPad resulting in the release of their customer email addresses.… Read the rest “Important Information About Your iPad 3G”
One of the best parts of WWDC are the lunchtime speakers like @DrWave, @CNN, and @NASA
Dr. Michael Johnson is a great presenter. I love his style and anecdotes. I’ve seen him present at 4 or 5 WWDCs over the years. Unfortunately these sessions are protected under NDA and are not available for re-broadcast anywhere. Dr. Johnson is particularly good because he primarily talks about creating technology solutions to real world business workflows.… Read the rest “One of the best parts of WWDC are the lunchtime speakers like @DrWave, @CNN, and @NASA”
Nice win for Germany over Socceroos 4-0 – Good way to start Cup #wc2010
The fatal mistake was the overly strong red card when the score was still 2-0. It seemed like Australia started out strong. It took Germany 10 minutes to make it into the penalty box to take their first shot. Shortly there after they scored their first goal.… Read the rest “Nice win for Germany over Socceroos 4-0 – Good way to start Cup #wc2010”
Pictures from WWDC Beer Bash Concerts 2004 – 2010
Each year Apple hosts a little corporate private party for the end of WWDC. It used to be back on the Apple Campus but for the last few years it has been held at the Yerba Buena Gardens. I’ve taken some pictures each year.… Read the rest “Pictures from WWDC Beer Bash Concerts 2004 – 2010”
Received a dozen identical notices from AT&T today about a change in my service – overkill?
I got a stack of 12 letters today from AT&T. Each one was identical telling me about a change in my service that I made two weeks ago. Not timely and very annoying. How about just putting a $5 credit on my account and save the postage and handling expense?… Read the rest “Received a dozen identical notices from AT&T today about a change in my service – overkill?”
Watching FIFA Copa Mudial on Univision in HD because ABC’s signal is too weak in DFW
I get all the channels on my HD receiver except ABC. Apparently they have a weak signal in DFW.

Tip: Use Image Capture to delete pictures off of iPad en masse
If you use the iPad camera connection kit you can import your pictures onto your iPad. This presents a problem when you get home to find that you have pictures on your iPad and on the memory stick. You would not want to import your pictures twice.… Read the rest “Tip: Use Image Capture to delete pictures off of iPad en masse”
You don’t need external speakers for your iPhone, just stick it in a glass for a makeshift amplifier
If you want a simple amplifier for your iPhone, just stick it in a glass speakers down. The glass will resonate and do all those magical things that Bose is so famous for. The bass response is not all that great so it is more suited for audiobooks and podcasts.… Read the rest “You don’t need external speakers for your iPhone, just stick it in a glass for a makeshift amplifier”
OK Go Plays WWDC Bash
I took some pictures durning the WWDC Bash (formerly known as the Campus Bash) this year in Yerba Buena Gardens. The band OK Go played. They were really good. I wish their set had been longer.
Blue Screen of Death on the Elevator – not a good sign
I’m hoping that only the entertainment system in the elevator runs Windows. I would not want my elevator to crash.
