- I followed a link on Hidden Los Angeles and found a killer list of film locations in town. (I’m going to go out on a limb and assume LA has a lot more of these than most cities. Sometimes I forget that I am living in what has to be the coolest city in the world.)
- If you post a classified ad, think twice before replying to Mike.
- “I thought he wanted to kill us,” Heard said. “He was so angry and upset.” — Perhaps he wasn’t asked if he wanted to spend the rest of his life in captivity. I’m just sayin’.
They’re a bit expensive, but these trash compactor bookends are sweet.- Fun: Check out the size of these balls! [Ed. note: Local copy of image for posterity saved here.]

- It’s great to hear that the first ever entirely volunteer-run open source conference was a huge success. My good friend Thomas had a big hand in that.
- When you’re designing websites, it’s handy to have a test template to check what your stylesheets will look like.
- WordPress 2.8 makes it even easier to code widgets.
- If you want to target links to open in a new window while still having valid code, it can be done with jQuery.

iTunes Tuesday: Display Song Lyrics
Did you know that you can store a song’s lyrics inside iTunes? Simply right-click on any song and choose Get Info. Then switch to the Lyrics tab and paste the lyrics there. Now when you play that track on your iPhone or iPod touch, the lyrics will be displayed right on the screen.
Flight Control
The absolute best iPhone app on the market right now has got to be Firemint’s FlightControl. You are an air-traffic controller tasked with routing planes (and helicopters) to the correct landing strip at one of three different airports. It sounds simple — and it is easy to learn and play — but after you’ve gotten

- Crush the Castle is an awesome Flash game. You will become addicted. (Luckily you’ll also quickly finish the whole game, so it’s not that bad.)
- The vendor/client relationship is often quite funny.
- I need to get about two dozen of these kick-ass CableDrops. (Or you could buy me some for my birthday!)
- The black Crocs Santa Cruz loafer is quite possibly the most comfortable shoe I’ve ever owned. I bought a pair in Maui to wear on the beach, but I’ve been wearing them to work lately because they’re so great. I like them so much I might just buy another pair in a different color.
- I’m GatorDavid on the World Golf Tour if anyone wants to challenge me. That game is like crack.
- Sure, sure… explosionsandboobs.com is a lot of fun. But have you seen explosionsandbobs.com?
- Anything is possible at zombo.com!

How to Handle a Ducking iPhone
For some reason that makes little sense, Apple decided to not include one of the words I use most frequently in the iPhone’s internal dictionary. So if I ever send you a text message saying that something is, “ducking awesome,” or that you need to, “get the duck out,” that is why. A certified Apple
iPhone SMS Alarm Bug
This morning I discovered what is possibly the world’s most annoying iPhone bug. For some time now I’ve been trying to determine why every now and then I seem to sleep right through my alarm. The iPhone alarm can be set to be tragically loud and uncomfortably annoying, so the fact that I have frequently
