Need an additional USB connector?
Here are the Star Wars USB hubs!

Bill Gates Leaves Microsoft

Today, june 27th, Bill Gates officially leaves his functions in the Microsoft company he created 33 years ago.
Don’t have any comment, we all know what he did: good and bad things like any human being to make of Microsoft the biggest IT company in the World.
This information makes me think that Steve Jobs too will leave Apple soon or late…. Such a sad thought.

Remotely control iTunes (7.7) from your iPhone/iPod Touch

27 June 2008, Hedi | No Comments »

iSofa, wifiTunes, Signal ($30) etc… will be swept way when iTunes 7.7 will be released.
The beta version Apple is seeding to developer comes with a bundled application that will allow you to that.
It should be released maybe today or tomorrow (because the iPhone 3G will be shipped on june 29th) or in two weeks maximum (MobileMe release date july 11th).

Beyond the new remote functionality, iTunes 7.7 is also known to add an Applications tab to let users specify loading only certain software on the phone, and will be necessary for both iPhone 3G and the MobileMe sync service.

Last.fm & Leopard

26 June 2008, Hedi | 3 Comments »

Why doesn’t the Last.fm client work for most (or all) Leopard users?
The explanation must be too technical or inexistent. I’ve tried all that a normal user can do to make it work: deleting preferences of the application, delete and re-install it, changed my last.fm password.. but in vain.
Before Leopard got released I wasn’t using the Last.fm client anyways, I had a crush for CoverSutra when it became compatible with Last.fm.
But even CoverSutra isn’t working for me on Leopard (I’m not the only one having this problem it seems), add to that the fact the application became too heavy with its new spotlight like feature.

Today a friend gave me the solution; downgrade to CoverSutra version 1.1.4 and it works!!!


I took the little heart (in the menu bar) that comes with CoverSutra version 2 and here I am scrobbling again the songs I’m listening!

My Last.fm account: this way.
