Today my boss gave me a “Kinder egg”:http://www.magic-kinder.com/mkv2/IT_it/changeLanguage.html. Inside there was a toy car. I call him Stanley. He enjoys long drives, oil checks and sitting on my Macbook’s speaker (pictured below). I’ve also gathered all the ports of i7AWF and made a project page for them.
With the release of iTunes 7, Apple made a bold promise of letting you download all the artwork you lacked, from your (ahem) ripped CDs. Like short shorts, I like free album covers. I’m sure a lot of people do. Unfortunately, the functionality seems premature and blatantly crippled. I wrote some libraries to fetch artwork from iTMS a while ago, but that was shut down. Now that it’s open again, I decided to write a new library to fetch artwork.
The keynote this year was as many say it, utterly disappointing. Alas, Apple had an event yesterday. Surely a big crowd had been anticipating this, and hopefully many got their hunger satisfied. (Bada-tisch)
It was an hour-event or so, as far as I could follow on those live-covered sites, and it was all about the media this time. In order of my excitement, they released a new version of iTunes, which is pretty cool. I really like the whole cover-art view it has going on, and I like the Aqua!'' interface, that's allegedly taking overAqua” as we know it. Nothing major, but it looks better. Leopard, I guess.
Wow. Can you believe I haven’t blogged since February 21st? So how come I haven’t? Good question.
