Suck your contacts back out of Facebook

The perfect workaround to get your Facebook contacts back out into the "real world" of Yahoo, and then even into Gmail. It has to be a good method, notice who left a comment on the blog post...


Cheap on-the-air light solution

I came up with this while walking the aisles of OSH, a local hardware chain.

Let me know how it goes for you! I recommend having them test the remote for you in the store, as mine was a dud the first time.

Pro Tools HD users, DON'T go to OS 10.6.8

Avid isn't ready, as usual...

I'm installing the Combo update of 10.6.8, which is recommended for any mission critical users over the standard "delta" update that gets installed from Automatic Updates. http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
