Delicious Library 2.0

When Delicious Library came out in 2005, I was working at the Apple Store in Burlingame. I loved it. It has one of the best, most enjoyable user interfaces I've ever used. For those that don't know, Delicious Library is a cataloging software that allows you to keep track of your collection of books, DVDs, and games.

The second version of this software came out earlier this year, and it's freakin' awesome. You can now have a lot of different types of items in your collection. It has a new feature that lets you publish your collection to the internet. On top of that, it creates iPhone-compatible websites.



My only complaint is that it's Leopard only, and I'm still running Tiger on my three year old Macbook Pro. Overall, I think it's still an awesome program.

Link to my published library found here.

New Blog Posting App

I've started this blog and can now use an iPhone app called Cellspin to post to it. It does voice recording, photo posting and of course plain old text posting. We'll see how long I keep posting.

Why Are Some People So Freakin…

I'm at the airport waiting for a delayed flight to Vegas. There is a group of four loudmouths here and they are extremely obnoxious. "Where is our plane? Where is our plane?", she says. "I'm going to kill you," I think.
