ok so i felt the need to talk about the iPad

i was sold before i knew what it was, then i was a little disappointed but… and its a big but!

  • runs iPhone OS

this did bother me, but after hearing of all the apps that will come to iPad it made me wonder what exactly on OS X do i really want on the iPad???????

because after all there are already tons of apps that do the things i do on the laptop for iPhone so i guess i really don’t want anything from the laptop that i don’t already have for iPhone

  • no camera!

well no camera that sucks right? but the who the hell am i going to video conference? probably no one

  • no flash

well here is the kicker no flash for the iPad….. that does suck! Steve jobs said adobe is lazy and flash is buggy, no complaints here about the buggy and crashing from flash, however he said everyone is moving to html5 tell me.. where is html5 for video chat? ah yes but there is no camera ;) also no flash banners with click me click me shoot 5 iPhones!

  • no fully blown OS X

well back to that point with remote clients i could just access my laptop from wherever! and use a fully loaded OS and the iPad is perfect for this, now i don’t need to worry about those apps i need to get my hands on, on the laptop…. wait which apps would those be?

so there you have it, i was already saving for the iPad prior to knowing about it and will be getting one for sure ;) cant wait ;)

Ok seriously, i’m dying to see what Apple comes up with, I can’t see them failing in this arena they have learned so much from the iPhone and iPod touch that they will definitely succeed with a tablet like device.

My use for a tablet

  • On the couch
  • Next to my computer “YOU CAN NEVER HAVE ENOUGH SCREENS!!!!”
  • In the car
  • At the hotel
  • Airplane?

anyway the uses are endless im sure for many people i already sit on the couch with my iphone and before that my ipod touch and tho i text its not why i have it with me, its to surf and check email stats etc. play games etc. at all times ;) i need to be connected even when im sleeping damnit! lol

ok so i have a blog that has a HUGE wordpress database i did the automatic upgrade and it kept telling me to upgrade the database, my hosting provider did this for me cause it kept timing out… but it kept asking me over and over to upgrade…

SOLUTION: go into phpmyadmin goto wp_options goto the next page or so and search out db_version changed to 12329 and BAM your back in your backend ;)

win7_beta_06What with the holidays and all that, you probably forgot the all-important fact of the Windows 7 public beta coming next month. Some file sharers couldn’t wait, it seems, and have leaked what appears to be the final public beta — M1 Build 7000, as opposed to the previous closed beta version 6801. Neoseeker

Israel’s deadly airstrikes on Hamas compounds in the Gaza Strip are drawing sharp reactions in the Arab world

“Ok so im not going to go on a rant, or get all political on this issue, you the reader, just step back a second and forget about treaties agreements and what not and look at the faces of the bloody and injured and hurt the scared the dead, now all i would like to see is a list of crimes each and every single individual who died or was horrifically injured for the rest of their lives, maybe its just me but doesnt sound too hard to explain your actions does it?, hmm or how about TELLING the country your going to bomb the fuck out of them before you do it, i mean US did for Iraq and well Afghanistan knew it was coming  the second cnn changed its programming to 9/11 all day 24/7″

anyway the video is better then a photo and speaks louder then anything

Stockxpert Xpertips Newsletter
This week’s lesson is on how to add image highlights and shadows in Photoshop.

STEP 1

STEP 2

STEP 3

Launch Photoshop and open the image you want to modify. We used Stockxpert #13936211 by haveseen, described by the photographer as an “Antique brass compass over old Canadian map background.” Press F7 to show the Layers palette. Drag the Background layer to the Create New Layer button to duplicate it.

Choose Filter > Other > High Pass. Use the options in the resulting High Pass dialog box shown below, with Radius set to 8 pixels, and click OK.

Set the Layer Mode to Hard Light and you’re done. You can experiment with the Layer Mode of the Background copy layer to create alternative effects.
