Link Dump
Been dealing with some malware-infected computers of family members and friends, and have also been a tad under the weather, so blogging hasn't been a priority the last few days. But I have too many links sitting here that need to be disposed of, so here ya go: - Conan O'Brien is moving to TBS. Speaking of Conan, Team Coco billboards are popping up all over the place. All this is probably timed with the start of his tour, which started in Eugene last night (anybody go? It looked like fun.).
- Columbia University will soon offer a soon offer a combined engineering and journalism degree, something I would have totally applied to get into when I was in high school, had it existed.
- Maps in modern web design.
- prettyPhoto is a jQuery-based lightbox clone.
- MFCMAPI "uses Microsoft's published APIs to provide access to MAPI stores through a graphical user interface. Its purpose is to facilitate investigation of Exchange and Outlook issues."
- A new Harry Potter trailer, and Hermione has a stalker (NSFW, depending on liberal your boss' view is on a brief naked bum and some naugtly language).
- Great guide to building an HTPC.
- The periodic table of imaginary elements.
- Steve Jobs' response to the Section 3.3.1 of the new SDK terms of service, and existing apps that are breaking the new TOS.
- jQuery HTML table toolbox.
- Exploiting a linux kernel NULL dereference.
- iPhone users now have an alternative browser now that Opera Mini for the iPhone has been approved. Here are a couple quick reviews. I use Opera Mini on my Touch Pro with Sprint, and it works great compared to Pocket IE.
- Speaking of Apple products, Gizmodo has some essential iPad apps, as well as a full review.
- Why you should never trust photos you see: Britney Spears, before and after photoshop.
- The season finale of House (one of my favorite shows) was filmed entirely with a Canon 5D Mark II.
- How I ran an ad on Fox News.
- 5 different movies, all completely different, but with the same lines of dialog.
- ZeuApp is a nifty little app to easily install a bunch of different software.
- Things overheard in a newsroom.
- A new database devoted to people who lived in Oregon prior to its statehood.
- Somebody needs to make this for Oregon: A pronunciation guide for everything Wisconsin.
