Dick's won't stock Vick jerseys →
caseyliss:
I’m somewhat torn on the whole Vick issue, given that I am a Virginia Tech alum, and he wasn’t [nearly as much of] a scumbag when he was there. More importantly, he has been sentenced and sent to prison, and then released.
All in all though, whether or not he really did “do his time”, it seems more than a bit unfair to me that shortly after being out of prison he’s back to making...
MobileMe woes, part 3: The Final Chapter
Got an email from Don:
Thank you for your patience as we have looked into your issues of intermittently not being able to utilize your MobileMe mail using either a mail client or web mail. I have received word from the mail team they have addressed some issues with the SMTP servers. We would like to have you monitor your connectivity issues and let us know if they persist.

You know what I like about the tumblr for iPhone app? I can browse thedw.us morning wood, et al, links with no safari history.

No Fucking Love
jeffrock:
I’m a football fan. Let me be more specific: I’m a Denver Broncos fan. Always have been. I don’t like to watch any other teams of any other sports. Does it bother me that we lost every decent starter that we had and fired the head coach that led us to back-to-back Superbowls? No. What bothers me is that I can’t watch my team suck because I live on the east coast.
Why not? I mean,...
MobileMe woes... part 2
After I sent an email back to Don that summed up said, “I’m not doing this, I’ve done this already.. several times today”, Don escalated my support ticket to MobileMe engineering. I was asked for permission for the engineering team to access my account and asked again for the symptoms of my problem. For those following along at home:
Typically the issues seem to occur...

MobileMe woes.
I love MobileMe. I evangelize their services often. Over-the-air syncing saved me hours of time when I got my new iMac.
That being said, their service support team sucks.
Things to remember throughout the scope of this post:
I am a developer, I am not an average Joe user, I understand things you are saying when you talk about mail configurations
I have a coworker, who is on MobileMe, and...

Keyboards on Android Phones vs the iPhone →
the most interesting part about this article was this little tidbit..
Although you don’t see it with your eyes, the sizes of the keys on the iPhone keyboard are changing all the time. That is, the software enlarges the “landing area” of certain keys, based on probability.
sick.
this song is too much fun.

On Saturday night, we drove up to Seattle to attend a memorial service for my wife’s grandmother. Shortly after checking into the hotel, I checked the inbox on my Android phone and found myself staring at the words “Philip Schiller”.
