It would seem Aaron Hillegass’ latest revision of Cocoa Programming for Mac OS X is about to hit the shelves. The available date seems to have moved up a few days as well.
If your looking for…
An exhaustive Cocoa reference
an excellent tutorial book for Objective-C
a great introduction to Cocoa programming, buy this book!
I was never really all that into the Crowes. Not to say I don’t like the band, but they don’t make my Favorites playlist very often. They absolutely ROCK!!! (live)
Sadly, I didn’t notice that my ticket stub was in fact a $10 gambling voucher until it was to late to cash it in for $10 (24hr window). Should I attend another concert at RiverWind, I’ll be sure to test this one out. Can you say $10 dollar rebate? 
8:00 tonight, the Black Crowes will be in Norman, OK. Tickets are way too expensive, so only go if you’re a big fan that somehow missed the announcement until now.
More info at Riverwind.com.
National Council of Gambling Problems website if you already know where the casino is located.
I just linked my site to technorati. Hopefully the process will be over shortly.
Point Of Sale! Get your mind out of the gutter!)
I want a stand-alone bar code scanner App for use in Checkout 2.0.
Cheap barcode scanners start at more than a $100.
So the price could be $40-80, and customers would still bite.
Wireless scanners start at more than a thousand $$$$.
A Cocoa Touch barcode scanner app could sell like hotcakes.
Oh, and I want a camera in the iPod Touch, Why wasn’t it there in the first place!?
It sounds as though Delicious Library 2.0 will retail for $40, and Delicious Library Pro for $80.
Priced right, Delicious POS wouldn’t cannibalize Delicious Library 2.0 sales.

Yeah, I know. It’s a repost, but I have only one more image to remove now!
Have fun!
A del.icio.us client that displays previews of your tagged web pages.
The interface is drop dead simple and attractive. The first time I ran Delish, I was prompted to enter my del.icio.us account info. Then Delish started creating great looking webpage thumbnails.
A lot a pages don’t ever get their thumbnail. This I’m sure will be addressed in future versions of Delish. It’s only in beta 4 after all. It did have me scratching my head for a moment. Or maybe I just need some Selson Blue.
Used in conjunction with Pukka, this really ties things together. Making del.icio.us seem like just another part of my Mac, not some distant cloud. I also realized how badly I need to trim and sort my tags.
So check it out. Should you find yourself using it go click that “i use this” button.
I work at an Apple VAR. While at work, I’ve noticed that 12″ PowerBook G4 owners consistently pick up the MacBook Air within 3 minutes of entering the store. The only word for the look in their eyes is lust. I like to jokingly refer to the 12″ as the original Air.
There are a number of comments I hear on a regular basis.
Here they are in order of frequency
It’s so tiny! - with a look of awe
It’s beautiful! - but…
But it has no optical drive - Several time a day
It looks really fragile
Too Expensive - Almost every time anyone looks at it
It’s like a really fancy looking MacBook
How much for the SSD version!?
No FireWire - Just a hand full of times, and it made me smile
Bleh! Here’s a new one that I really appreciated.
2 GB max Ram? Why not 4GB!? - I heard it for the first time today
4GB and no upgrade path is just fine for a machine that people will use many years. Just like those wide eyed 12″ PowerBook owners. Those machines are 2-5 years old, and most of them are early revisions.
I hope to get my wish sometime in 2009.
Some people say it’s to short. Maybe there right, but I disagree. This Sword cuts up screen protectors as though they were old shoes. You will experience E Honda syndrome, then you will learn the way of the sword. This game would have been an also ran on ANY other system, with the possible exception of the Wii.
4 stars
If you love Queens of the Stoneage, you will wanna doggie style these 2 albums! Dissonant, jacked, fast, furious and beautiful. This music will make your hips move despite that nagging dysplasia.
Shake some tail feather baby.
5 stars, because crap that gets less than 4 stars will not appear on this page.
