March 26th, 2009Sync calenders – iCal, iPhone and Google calender..
March 26th, 2009
I needed to sync a team of PC’s and Mac’s and iPhone, Blackberry phones. This was not fun, for a while I used basecamp to do this in a roundabout “4 years ago” kinda way…If you are a PC user, use the Google Calender CalDAV method so that you can deliver a shared and 2-way editable calender to both Mac and PC users without excuses..
- Sync and post ical entries across multiple computers
- Syncs ical to iPhone
- Share to both Mac and PC calenders
- Free and Reliable
Well it look likes Google stepped up to the plate here. Google Calender mixed with CalDAV is the answer.
I have found this combo more usable than any other free solution. It can be totally web based, or native across a diverse range of both desktop and mobile platforms.
Customize your desktop, new icons make it fresh
March 5th, 2009I am constantly looking for new ways to decrease how much thinking I have to do.
If you work in a crap environment how can you be expected to produce anything but crap?
I find that some of the most straining focus is caused by looking at long lists of folders that all look identical.
I am a huge fan of colour coding folders based on intensity. I make the “hot” folders red, and the stable ones green and blue. This way it’s possible to jump immediately to the most traveled folders on your system even if you’re blurry eye drunk.
But colour coding can only go so far. I’m talking about changing the whole damn icon.. Create a theme of your operating system so that you don’t have to think where things go…
I used icons from the free section of “the iconfactory”, you should head over there and check out the great stuff they have there for new custom os x icons.
Once you download the icon packages, you can copy and paste them onto the default ones in the “Get Info” dialogue box [Commad + I].
Hoodie Remix – Great Flash User Experience
February 7th, 2009I work in the apparel industry and have seen quite a few attempts at allowing users to create their own garment designs… This is the best example of any that I have seen recently, check it out here.
Night Agency Did A Great Job on this Campaign!
This really has nothing to do with open source, but I think its a great example of effective interface design. I love seeing great use of flash and actionscript 3.
