DISQUS

How's the auto focus system compared to the previous generation? Did you notice anything different? I know you've been using the 1st gen. for a long time.

my favorite is leaflets; http://app.getleaflets.com/ It has more than just app launchers, like the integration of feed readers, upcoming, search engine, flickr, del.icio.us and more in an iphone-friendly interface. Leaflets has become my homepage upon launching safari on the iphone.

@Kevin, What can i say, I am truly impressed by your mobility gadgets as each day passes. Despite it was Justine who pioneered the concept of mobile-casting, you definitely take this concept off the chart. 2 thumbs up!

I am going to try to find the Qstarz unit here on the states to see how and if i can integrate it to my daily life.

Hi Robert, I favor content than theme any day of the week, which you deliver on the former. Will a new design attract more subscribers? Folks come to your site to read what you wrote not how it looks. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. If you are persistent though,check out Derek Powazek's Depo clean theme: http://powazek.com/posts/516/ whichever theme you choose, go w/ something that's similar to what you're currently using so that we don't have to "recalibrate" our eyes.

The Belkin arcylic case: http://urltea.com/wh5 and ContourCase Isee: http://urltea.com/wh5 are another 2 alternatives. The transparent designs do not conceal the iphone's physical traits

Robert, I have one unopened if you want one next week. I bought an extra just in case.

speechlessly adorable. :)

Robert, On thursday night, David Randolph of Revision3 had an ingenious idea of putting the cell number of one of these two kids on digg and encourage diggers to send voice mail and sms. One of the guys on our side was fishing for the number and he took the bait. We imagined the fury his father would have when the phone bill comes in at the end of the month. I didnt know how the story ends, however.

Robert, how about sharing some of the stickers you receive in the next couple of days w/ us on the next photowalking? Your MBP display lid can only takes so many, right? :)

Ever think about trimming that waistline of yours? you are an embarrassment. Poor Mr. Pants' button.

Robert, I have yet encounter some of the problems you and many others have despite my habit of having at least 15 tabs at any given time. I am currently using v2.0.0.3.

When the problems start cropping up? did you install any plugins/extensions prior to the problems? in any case, try deleting the plist file located in ~/Library/Preferences/org.mozilla.firefox.plist and see if the issues go away.

Robert, what time you and Patrick are swinging by to the store? I might be coming over around 7PM. I think Thomas is coming down as well.

@Kevin, your dad is videogenic, feel easy and very open in front of the camera. I wish my dad were like that. :) Anyway, very innovative drink concept indeed. I hope they make it to the states soon.

ingenious idea, Kevin!!

Hi Stephanie, I have enjoyed meeting you on Photowalking 11, despite briefly as well as looking at the photos you took that day on Zooomr. Hope to see you on WordCamp 07 next month. Cheers!

Happy birthday! Wish you the best of success down the road.

Will love to hear what you think about it after several usages. mini review?

Would love to get skitched. Thanks for an invite in advance :)

it will be a disaster if your cat peed on your macbook pro. lesson learned today: dont let your cat in when you are out. I always close my room when I am out. I dont want my cats to chew on my cables, scratch my apple router, or even steal my ipod nano.

i am superduper hoping for #5 to materialize. My dad, who is a everything-has-to-be-light junkie, will be stocked if ultra-portable Mac comes true and I suspect so will many folks.

just got it on the mail today. thanks! Will post the tee in action on flickr very soon.

The new display is LED-backlit. TFT LCD has been phased out on the 15" MBP. Dell just made LED-backlit display available for its new 13" lappie, so the macbook version is just around the corner so will the 17" MBP. Brent, I wouldnt worry about this new announcement. I have 17" CD MBP, i am not taking my wallet out yet despite the max 4GB ram upgrade. What i am waiting for is the new design. The MBP has seen no major design revision since '03. So I am all good 'till then.

Brent, can't wait to put it on. Nice real life photos on how the tee looks.

Brandon, very insightful tutorial! (i read it twice to make sure it gets to my head) It's true that for a newbie photographer with DSLR, the amount of settings (ISO, WB, Exp. compensation, etc) will be overwhelming. In my case, I need to ensure all settings are correct prior to snapping a photo, especially when the light condition changes. Sometimes to the point I missed the "moment" It just is so much work. Of course, as one keeps taking photos, and gets acquainted with the equipment, some of these checking steps will be 2nd nature.

Are you going to write a tutorial on metering anytime soon? :). This is the one of the aspects I am struggling most with especially on a frame where one part (neon light for example) is bright and the rest is dark (wall for example). Let's say i use spot metering and focus on the bright part, the rest of the photo will be very dark and vice versa. Achieving the balance in this particular situation is challenging at best. Like your photo titled "sacred" (http://urltea.com/kgq), what metering mode did you use? and did you need to lock your exposure somewhere prior?

Thanks for any suggestions/tips.

Hi Shawn, welcome to iBam. I second on the quicksilver. All mac powerusers i know use qs. It's amazing. Anyway, here's the apps i use everyday: firefox, adium, twiterrific, terminal, ical, igtd, netnewswire, aperture, transmit, and Picturesque.
