Pownce, has just gotten a bunch more themes to play with, as well as the ability for Pro ($20p/a) users to customise their own. Sweet.
Note Pownce designer, Daniel Burka’s, footnote:
“I know a few people have been asking for full CSS control for editing themes. I’m really concerned about the user interface devolving into a MySpace kind of hodgepodge mess if we did that. It’s really important to me that the UI stays relatively consistent across everyones’ profiles — the navigation stays in the same places, the dimensions remain the same, etc.”
Smart move.

Kawasaki, former Apple Evangelist, and current CEO of Garage Technology Ventures, delivers a great presentation on innovation that is equally humorous and informative. Probably the best presentation I have ever heard.

Roger Johansson highlights some issues with 10.5’s out-of-the-box applications, including a guide to fixing these common problems.
From all accounts, MAMP 1.7 seems to be working perfectly under Leopard.
If you are subscribed to this feed then you might have noticed a few problems over the last few days, just to let you know that I’m trying to get things working efficiently early on, rather than go through the hassle later.
Things should be running smoothly in the next couple of days.
If anyone has any suggestions then let me know.

“Linux is still not anywhere near OS X in terms of taste and feel. That’s not a slam. I’m continuously impressed at just how well things are coming along, but it’s still just not on the same level.” DHH
Ruby On Rails & Basecamp creators, 37 Signals, are known for their development under Mac OSX (see their profile on Apple.com) - their latest “Ask 37 Signals” post poses the question ‘Why OSX not Linux?’ - it’s great to see that it’s not just me that can’t deliver a straight answer as to why I’m prepared to pay a premium for my hardware.
I tend to demonstrate some of the simple UI things, like dragging a directory into terminal. Linux doesn’t do that, right?
