    "I don’t read inspiring books. I find that such books give me a temporary high, but they don’t give me the power to actually follow through. In fact, I suspect these books often serve as a substitute for actual success, rather than as a way of helping people achieve success. By reading inspiring books, you can experience success vicariously; they free you from having to achieve things yourself."

    I noticed this straight-away after installing the update. Little details like this are what separate a great app from the rest of the garbage in the app store. Cheers, Marco!

Loving the Instapaper mobilizer in conjunction with Tweetie 2. See @tj’s excellent how-to here.

Extra slick feature: You can Read Later a mobilized article from Tweetie 2 or with the bookmarklet and Instapaper does the right thing, adding the original article to your queue.


Wow. A great discovery!

    "A big part of the reason for all the excitement about the iPad is that, similar to the Nintendo Wii in the videogames industry, it appeals to segments of the market which have not traditionally been targeted. Segments which are nevertheless ready and willing, as with Wii, to buy devices in their hundreds of thousands."

    "

    You “focus” on the one thing you care about, as you “unfocus” on everything else. If not for every minute of your life, at least for the time you set aside to pursue the thing that matters.

    If that sounds fancy and oversimplified, then you “care” about too many things. Period.

    "As of Rails 3, script/server has become rails server. This was done because David liked it that way. Anyone who disagrees with the change is instantly wrong."
