Here’s a preview of what’s soon going to be the new look of themak.org:
All critisism welcome for the new design.
The new theme is also going to mark a whole new version of themak.org, the move from the brilliant PALGN free hosting to an ASO shared hosting plan where I will also move this blog from […]

This is a post devoted to the ‘little things’ that make using OSX fun for me. A long overdue last article for the week in apps series.
My Adium set up: as you can see this offers little clue as to who’s online apart from their avatar(display picture, buddy icon etc.) […]

In the mid nineties a product between Apple and BT sprung up, the Apple Interactive Television Box [wikipedia] this was to fufill BTs desire for a set top box that was connected to and received content from the internet. Or more specifically; certain BT servers. This would work over ADSL and serve the user with […]

Over the next week the Zooomr team is going to be making some fairly major updates to progressively beta photo sharing site Zooomr.
Personally I hope for:
Stories.
Better support for privacy settings.
The ability to edit those things that are locked from first upload.
A wordpress plugin.
The bulk uploader.
And thanks to zooomr for the qouta reset.

Update:
Here’s a quick teaser of the website that I’ve been working on for a while.
As to what it does, I’m not telling quite yet.
Oh and .

Recently I have been pointed to the sxore roadmap where they promise far tighter integration with wordpress for comments, such as using the wordpress comment database and form for the comment system. Also with the addition of multiple single sign on technologies. Yes, that is oxymoronic, but I won’t tell anyone if you don’t. I’ve […]

In this, the third post of the week in apps series, Tim and I. Will be looking at Instant Messaging clients.
For inter-service compatibility, there is none to beat AdiumX. Being open source I can always run the latest version on the svn tree- not suggesting this as a smart thing to do. The SVN version […]

Today is the second installment in the week in apps series and Tim again joins us for Web browsers.
On any other platform, the choice for a good powerful tabbed web-browser is fairly easy; Firefox. But on OSX it looks nasty:
It uses custom widgets.
It uses Aqua and a menu. Not unified.
So I looked for an alternative, […]

This week I’m going to be examining certain applications on my desktop running OSX, and Tim will be doing the same for Linux.
Mail.app
It could be said that there is only one real choice for an email client for OSX: Apple Mail. For one it comes pre-installed with OSX and secondly; it genuinely is the […]

Since the leak of the Leopard beta, quite a few interesting videos detailing the powers of core animation. Although I wonder why it was not shown at WWDC keynote, although I might think that Apple isn’t best pleased at this leak.
Seems that support is reliant on Core Image, so yay for my iBook […]
