Href affection for March 31st

- Timbuk2 - Steve Sleeve - Timbuk2’s MacBook Air sleeve stylishly adopts the look of the interoffice mail envelope Steve demoed at Macworld. Very clever. I’m gettin’ one.
- persistent.info: Mail Trends - “Thus was born Mail Trends, an IMAP-based email analysis project. It can generate a bunch of tables, graphs and distributions based on time of day, senders, recipients, mailing lists, etc.” Mihai is a stone cold stud.
- Hivelogic: Offices and The Creativity Zone - “In the very same way you’d want to find the right time and place to read a book, creative types need to setup the specific conditions they need to enter The Zone.” [via DF]
- Clipboard History triggers unwantedly - If your QS Clipboard window has taken on a life of its own, try deleting and re-installing the Clipboard plug-in. Saved my sanity. Also: I’m kind of liking the adverb “unwantedly.”
- Leather Hipster PDA Case from Staples on Flickr - Handsome-looking $10 case available at Staples. (By the bye, Levenger, thumbs-down for appropriating the Hipster PDA name without attribution; not classy) [Flickr photo link via djohnson]
- Apple - Downloads - Dashboard Widgets - HostsWidget - “Allows you to manipulate your “
/etc/hosts” file quickly and easily.” [via siliconmeadow] - Nothing Up My Sleeve: Twitter as a Moral Compass - Gordon shares how to use htaccess to alter a hotlinked image on just the one thieving domain. Man, I’d love to see Yahoo! do this to the Drudge Report (check the man’s code for imgs src’d from straight off yimg.com).

Almost like being on the cover of Rolling Stone
It’s ironic that you’ve chosen to publicise a link I sent you via del.icio.us. I’ve been stalking you for months. As well as sharing links via del.icio.us, I used to be one of the elite few (12,569 at latest count and increasing by 1 or 2K a week) who follow you via Twitter.
Another friend who follows you started tweeting to me in revered tones (is that possible?) and said I’d made it to 43Folders.
The irony was this: I thought you might have heard through the grapevine that one of my latest tweets was regarding how I’d stopped following you on twitter. I’d felt it was keeping me from GTD.
I’m glad it was the hosts widget suggestion. Feel free to suggest good stuff to me via del.icio.us. Don’t be shy. Woz bless you.
