  Twittering 

  I’m usually twittering these days (@jsuplido) that I’ve forgotten about this blog. I’ll definitely try to stay updated from now on.

  I kinda like this new look anyway.

  Reading with a Sony Reader PRS-300 

  Christmas (and my birthday) happened early when my wife “authorized” me to get a Sony Reader Pocket Edition. (We’re lucky to have a gadget vendo machine (US mainland pricing!) at Macy’s).

  Pros: great “pocket” design; eBook Library Mac version; faster refresh rate; still readable under direct sunlight
  Cons: comes only with a USB 2.0 data/power cable; “S” font setting not as smooth

  Original Snow Leopard Was Too Blood Thirsty for Mac OS X Box – Snow leopard – Gizmodo.

  I was initially wondering “who” the snow leopard in the box is. This partially answers my question.

  Great tip from TUAW: In Mac OS X Leopard (10.5) you can click once on a file in Finder, then press the spacebar to see a preview. This is called Quick Look, and it’s also in Mail and Time Machine.
