The Cult Of Mac
My copy of The Cult Of Mac arrived today, and it’s beautiful. I’ve only had time to read a few pages, but it’s amazing. I had to go for the hard cover version since I think it’s going to live in my living room. Next to the AirPort Extreme. And the AirPort Express. And more often than not my MacBook Pro.
I ought to be doing some research for university, but I’m off to read some more. I’m up to looking at what people do with the stickers, but I’m really loking forward to the tattoos. I’m hoping to get a bit of inspiration for my next one.
I may be getting a little bit obsessed…
Think
I found a rather nifty app today. It’s made by Freeverse and it’s called Think. Basically, it allows you to concentrate on one application by dimming everything else. There is another app that does this called Backdrop but Think works better for me, mainly because it’s got a built in application switcher to choose the focused app, but it also allows you to switch to any other application, then switch back to your focused app.
