I had to Share It

OK Apple like Safari so why would I not give it a try on my new clean computer?

So with only Safari on it (for now) I quickly found something that drove me nuts and that is by default links open in a new window instead of a tab.

After some searching I found the sollution.

Close Safari (really quit it) then go to terminal and type

defaults write com.apple.Safari TargetedClicksCreateTabs -bool true

And that is it you did it now links open by default in a tab

Most of us out there heard about the new Apple tablet computer the iPad and yes the iPad is high on my wish list.

But what are people thinking these days I now ran in to so many video’s that basicly break the iPad and why I can’t really say. It is such a waste of money and resources and what about the poor people who want an iPad but can’t buy one yet because stupid people buy them to break them.

Let me list what I found so far:

It all started with this iPad smashing video that was live on the day they went on sale in the US

Then there was this video that “tests” the iPad and how long it will last. For me another unnecesary thing. Do you buy an iPad to drop it a couple of time on the floor?

Then there is the typical blender video to see if it blends in a blender. Great the iPad does not even fit in the blender so they removed the back and bended it so it would fit.

and now the last one I found today. Someone put an iPad in a microwave and yes we all know it is gone break.

And the last video even used the 64gb iPad 3G the most expensive of them all.

People can we stop doing these stupid video just to get some attention?

If you really want attention do something good or different that does not waste a 500 dollar machine that is brand new. Would you go buy a car and drive it in to a wall? because to me that is the same thing you know it is gone break.

I just found this site http://audiko.net/ a great recource of free ringtones I wanted one for my iPhone but i thing they also work on other phones.

On the site you can make you own ringtone but i didn’t try that because they had the one i was looking for the theme song of Corner Gas.

Apple introduced the new iPhone and we are all happy about that are we
I am for sure not gone upgrade from my iPhone 3G to the new 3Gs it just offers to little upgrades for me to make it worth the extra money.

But Apple was nice to the people who are going to upgrade from the 3G to the 3G S because the outside is exactly the same and that means that you can use you cases for instance and your stand like i have the Podium and this makes it a lot cheaper for people to upgrade because now we don’t have to shell some more money on all the accessories we need and want.

So if you are thinking about upgrading then you can forget about the accessories

A new iPhone does mean better specs and with the New iPhone 3GS the camera will be 3 mega pixel and has auto focus to. And that make me wonder the case is the same maybe the other parts still work the same way to ok faster does not automatically mean different layout of the main board and so that makes me wonder if it would be possible to order a camera of an iPhone 3GS and build it in to an iPhone 3G.

If that could work then that would be the best hack for an iPhone I can think off.

What do you think, will it be possible??

Do you have an iPhone but no dataplan?

Listen up this is what I found. I am with Fido and do not have a data plan. But when I was at a place that has a Rogers / Fido hotspot they let me use it for free because I have an iPhone. My friend who has an iPod Touch was not so lucky and just needed to pay if he wanted to use it.

So having an iPhone in Canada go give it a try.

This makes me wonder if people who have iPhones abroad have an similar experience and if this works accross borders????

OK so now your iPhone or iPod Touch is stuck and does not want to do anything any more hmmmm what to do now????

Let me tell you how to do a reset on these nice devices.

Hold the top (on/off) button and the home (round button on the front) both at the same time for at least 10 seconds till the Apple logo shows up.

That is it after that you should be OK again.

So now you know how to reset your iPhone and your iPod Touch. And it works with the iPhone 3G and the Touch 2e generation to.

Gmail now offers different themes to make your emailing experience look nicer.

And there seem to be a nice feature in there. After you select a theme it asks you for you location.

After that you local weather can be a part of your theme.

I use the bus stop theme and most times it shows me a giraffe with a long long neck but then this week it was raining and there where the umbrellas. And today it snows lots and guess what there now is a big Snowman and some people at the bus stop with snowboards, penguins and of course hats and mits.

So isn’t this the perfect way of making you computer behave like your real world?

Ever wondered how you could extend the range of the remote in your car key?

If so then I found a little simple trick to do so. I have seen it on an episode of Top Gear a while ago but never really tried till yesterday evening when I forgot to lock my car and i got to far away to use the remote as i normally do.

My Car a Jeep Patriot has one of those keys (see picture) with all the stuff build in it.
To extend the range simply hold the key against your head yes i am not kidding and then press the button and you will see it works. So no difficult electronics or stronge batteries just hold the key against your head and let your body be your range extender.

It is hard to believe so I kept trying it for a couple of times and there is no other conclusion to get then It works.

I noticed that the volume of my Nokia 2760 cell phone was a bit low and now how do I get to hear better well it is simple.

Just call someone or let receive a call and then press the right control to make the volume go up. It will remember the setting so from then on you get to hear a little bit better.
