Warning Labels for Crappy Journalism – Brilliant (via DF)
One of my favorites:
(love the “e-mail the douchebag who used it” feature)
I’ve been busy. Haven’t had an interesting links post in a while. Here ya go.
I’m Comic Sans, Asshole – Brilliant and funny. (via Gruber)
‘First to Do It’ vs. ‘First to Do It Right’ – solid explanation of the difference between adding features for the sake of having features, and adding features that let you do something your customer/user wants and/or needs to do. Same could be said for a lot of websites.
World Cup Preview – Short Edition – Short, funny and fairly accurate summaries of each of the 32 teams.
“While compiling this preview, I forgot about Greece and had to look them up when I realized I was one country short.”
The Lame iPad Camera Connection Kit – I’m still shocked there’s not an iPhoto Lite for the iPad.
More Adobe accessibility screw-ups – why? Seems I ask that a lot about Adobe these days.
Daring Fireball: Another Example of Why ‘Cult of Mac’ Is Held in Such High Esteem
What’s important to Apple about this process isn’t that it makes laptops cheaper. It’s that it makes them better at the same prices.

Great post from Gruber about iPhone apps running in the background. Here’s a tidbit I didn’t know. Makes sense:
The iPhone (and iPod Touch) only have 128 MB of RAM, and WebKit can use a lot of memory. When memory gets tight, the system sends low memory warnings to running applications, telling them to purge what they can. Eventually, the system will start forcing apps to quit in order to free more memory. That’s why sometimes when you relaunch Safari, it remembers the URLs, but has to reload the content for all of your open web pages — that’s what happens when Safari is asked to quit while it’s running in the background.
