It&#8217;s the iPad.
While I don&#8217;t need one, I think it would be cool to have around the house. Not sure $500 (for the bare bones edition) is worth it for a 3rd or 4th computer, though.

		<title>How I Read the Internet</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I read a lot online. The internet has been good to me. But it needs filters. I follow 241 people on Twitter, and that number is growing. Those folks post a lot of links I want to read, but often don&#8217;t have time to at the moment they post it.
Enter Instapaper. Integration with Twitter apps [...]]]></description>

		<title>Farewell Freshbooks. It&#8217;s Not You, It&#8217;s Me.</title>

A plea to those who enjoy giving this time of year:
Patrick posted this over at Minimal Mac and it got me thinking.

		<title>Use Comics to Tell a Story in your Learning</title>
		<description><![CDATA[News Flash October 2009, The Firefly Group.
Simple, but effective idea. Think outside the box. It doesn&#8217;t always have to be a page turner, video or job aid. Make a comic!

		<title>Daring Fireball: Philip Elmer-Dewitt on Apple&#8217;s Advertising Budget</title>
		<description><![CDATA[And this is why Apple shares are high and steady. They&#8217;re just crazy-smart with their money. They spend a lot, but they aren&#8217;t wasteful. I&#8217;d be they spend a lot more time negotiating advertising contracts as well, to maximize their dollar, just like they do with their hardware and software.

		<title>Daring Fireball: Buzz Andersen on the Purportedly Upcoming &#8216;Twitter Peek&#8217; Dedicated Twitter Device</title>
		<description><![CDATA[What I can&#8217;t understand is why these &#8220;Peek&#8221; devices are getting funding at all. Why in the world would anyone want yet another device to carry around? A separate &#8220;messaging&#8221; device just makes no sense at all, now that almost every phone being made incorporates all forms of messaging and browsing in some fashion.

		<title>Half Ratings in iTunes</title>
		<description><![CDATA[

Copy this:
defaults write com.apple.iTunes allow-half-stars -bool TRUE

Open Terminal (I love little hacks via Terminal)
Paste (Command-V) into Terminal and hit Enter
Close and Re-Open iTunes

(via TUAW)
If you use SizzlingKeys, it now displays half-ratings, and hopefully will add the half-rating function soon.
