TextExpander
Having been inundated with work for the last several weeks, I found myself typing the same emails over and over again as follow ups to the most common questions I get asked. “How does this <product or service> work?” “Can you send me links to your documentation?”
TextExpander has greatly simplified the task of [...]
Crashplan
I have two questions for you: 1. Do you back up your data? 2. Why not?
Most of us have the best intentions when it comes to backing up our data. Yes, we are told that it’s not a matter of if a drive fails, it’s a matter of when. And when you start hearing that whining [...]
Vidnik Works (Sort Of) Right Out Of The Box
Usability is everything to me. If something is hard to use, it simply doesn’t get used.
Today I saw a short post about Vidnik over at DownloadSquad and before I even finished the second sentence had already clicked over to the Vidnik download page to give it a try. So, I thought I’d record my very [...]
DropCopy
How do you copy files from one local computer to another? Do you use email and then wait for it at the other machine? Do you set up shared directories? It should be pretty easy but sometimes even the seemingly simple task of sending a file to another local machine takes some [...]
TechnoSanity Has A New Writer
After a long courtship, I’m pleased to announce that one of my most trusted friends, Mike Whitman, aka rcmike, is about to start writing for TechnoSanity.
I had never intended for this to be a multi-author blog. I wanted it to have one voice. But Mike and I have so much in common, I think it [...]
The New Seesmic Wordpress Plugin
I attempted to install the Seesmic Wordpress plugin on the day it was released with no luck. I wanted to install it here, since this is a test blog of sorts and is running Wordpress 2.5 on the backend. The first version of the Seesmic Wordpress Plugin did not play well with Wordpress 2.5, but [...]
Hahlo 3 Is My iPhone Twitter Choice
I finally jailbroke my iPhone last week using Ziphone.
Anxious to test some applications, I quickly downloaded Twinkle, featured by Installer, and MobileTwitter. I like Twinkle’s “Near Me” feature and the “feel” of each of the native applications. They were certainly responsive, but neither gave me the ease of use features that my favorite web based [...]
New Download Links For Mac Mail Stationery
Several readers have commented that links to the .zip files for the customized Mac Mail Stationery discussed here on Technosanity are bad. I have replaced all of the individual links on Editing Mac Mail Stationery , Two More Mac OS X Leopard Mail Templates and A Customizable Mail Letterhead Template for OS X Leopard, but [...]
The New Gallery Feature in Wordpress 2.5
The gallery feature in Wordpress 2.5 is my favorite new feature.
The ability to upload multiple photos at one time is very nice, but it’s the “gallery” feature illustrated below that I really like. I’m sure there will be a slew of plugins coming that will take full advantage of this new capability, but for now, [...]
ScreenFlow: Mac Only And Rockin Good
The video below should speak for itself.
I’m in love with ScreenFlow from Vara. Every effect you see in the video is done inside ScreenFlow after recording. It’s a truly amazing application and I’m up at 2:45am as a result. I’ve never seen a better screen capture application.
Not ever.
Simply Amazing: Screenflow from Vara Software from reshows [...]
