ipod nano 3g silicon cases

Well everyone in my opinion should be protecting their new nano against nasty scratches. I hate babying the nano everywhere I go so as to not scratch it!
I did a little poke around on ebay when the new nano was first released, nothing. A couple of weeks later, boom, someone in China (HK) is flogging [...]

iWeb 08 adsense?

I’ve been tinkering with iLife ‘08. Going to get a site up and running for my wife to play around with on her Mac. I’m setting up some adsense ads in the site, which is now built in to iLife ‘08, but I cant figure out for the life of me how to set the [...]

auto open Transmission

bought AppleTV and hacked it

I couldn’t help myself! While I was at DigiLife buying my new iPod nano. I bought a 40G Apple TV too! Why only 40Gig you ask? I don’t really have any intention of using the internal hard disk to store media! Here’s what I went through when I got it home on Saturday evening:
Firstly, I [...]
