The revolution will not be on YouTube

Both Safari and Firefox now support HTML 5 <video> tags. This is a test. Your browser does not support the video element. You should upgrade. Safari works like a charm, even on my iPhone, and OmniWeb works for free. But this still doesn’t seem to work in Firefox, apparently it only supports Ogg. They did a good thing, and then screwed it up. It appears that, for now at least, you’ll still have to tune into YouTube to watch the revolution.

Nothing feels better than relief

The most glorious thing happened to the worst software ever. As you probably know, I’ve been on the hunt for some way to export my Exchange calendar to iCal. Google yields little. Here are the options: Use Entourage Use Entourage sync to iCal Use Groupcal sync to iCal Use Sync’Em sync to iCal Well, Entourage just sucks. That’s all I’ll say about that. As for the others, they all fail in the same way.

With iPhone to Spare

I like my new iPhone quite a lot. The best new feature is speed. Man that thing is fast. I finally moved Rhonda’s account over to my old phone so now she’s using my old 16GB iPhone with OS 3.0. But now I’ve got an extra 8GB iPhone that I’m not entirely sure what to do with. Sell it on eBay? or Craigslist? Give it away? It’s a gift with bite, because it comes with a $20/month price tag for the data plan.

Why your tea party isn't like Boston

I’m a little late to the whole “tea party” thing, because I only figured out what they are today. The tea parties are at best, an empty gesture. You don’t have tea to throw into the ocean. If you’re really pissed about the financial crisis then the analog to that would be throwing your money into the ocean. Except that doesn’t make very much sense either. If you really want to stick it to the man, pull your money from the financial system.
