Who needs a mug to show you the correct ratio of coffee to milk? Just put in no milk at all and you’ll have it right. :)

I was that happy with it I even did the del.icio.us submission thing, as I thought it is just perfect for life in textmate. Oh well, I did it for him :)

I guess that new iPod...

I guess that new iPod makes sense. I wouldn’t want to watch a video on my current iPod nano. The screen is just way to small and I have to hold it up to my eyes. I wonder if the fatboy nano will come with a stand.

Most of my real life friends prefer Blackberry or something else over Iphone.

Ah the new iPod nano....

Ah the new iPod nano. I can see the way the Apple Designer went about this one: “Take beautifully proportioned iPod, add Rosie O`Donell and BOOM! We have the new Nano”. Although Steve was probably the one to add the Boom.

@Pat: I wouldn't consider Twitter...

@Pat: I wouldn’t consider Twitter to be IM. It’s microblogging. So that’s ok ;-)

Those coloring guide mugs are great.

@BeingParents: I can’t wait to get me an iPhone, I don’t think there’ll be a iPhone nano anytime soon.

@Merlin: You probably don’t need these tips? http://julianschrader.de/20070823-9-tips-for-better-e-mail-productivity/
