One of the draws of Macs is their hardware deign and elegant UI; not only with Apple products and software though. Third-party developers drive the Mac user experience by creating beautiful applications (and accessories) that show the same focus on excellent design. (i.e. Tweetie, Coda, and Pixelmator). Something as simple as a screensaver is no exception. Mac OS X comes with a collection of stunning wallpapers and screensavers, however I wanted to set my computer apart with something a little bit different.
WordClock by Simon Heys is simple, yet elegant screensaver I found that serves also as a clock. It can be customized in a variety of ways. Check out the video to see what I mean.
Here’s a video from this past weekend’s meet at Bucknell University. Definitely didn’t do as well as I hoped.
The video was recorded on a Polaroid DVC-00725F High Definition Digital Camcorder and edited in iMovie.
I stumbled upon this upon while at the library today. It’s a bit old, but still cool nonetheless.
Like every other Apple Store in the world, the Apple Somerset found itself host to a long line fanboys hoping to snatch the coveted iPhone 3G. As much as I love the iPhone (and i do love it), I’m not entirely sure I’d camp out like many a loyal fanboy have done.
While cleaning my room last week, I happened upon this interesting little gizmo. No it wasn’t a flux capacitor or a time machine. I had in fact found my first MP3 player dating back to the KaZaA era. By today’s standards, the specifications are laughable (128MB internal capacity expandable to 256MB with additional SmartMedia card), but also a testament to how dramatically Apple’s iPod changed the digital music scene. This is especially true considering I purchased this generic brand (who’s ever heard of IM Sports outside of high school?) player over a Sony Mini-Disc player. I’m glad I followed my avoid-Sony policy as Mini-Disc joined the ranks of Betamax, and ATRAC amongst other defunct formats.
