A place for brain dumps.
Who were the ad wizards that came up with this one?
Apparently a company (that shall go unnamed) has been handing out branded mini-sharpies at tradeshows. I’ve seen the mini sharpies before, and hadn’t noticed any resemblance. At least someone had to point it out to me, right?
I think the nice, healthy, gangrene color is what makes it really funny.
A picture is worth 1000 words.
(That and a real test of the flickr blog posting features.)
This is a helluva slick trick. 
Quickfire messages with Mail.app:
“I often want to send a quick Mail.app message while I am working in another app. I can switch to Mail, start a new message and type in the recipient’s name, or I can find a faster way.Hawk Wings reader Joshua Keay emailed me his method of doing this quickly. He created a file that is a text clippiing with the “mailto:” tag at the beginning of it.”
I tried to make the same thing happen for a blank Safari window, but no such luck. I’ll have to work on it more. Worst case, a local blank HTML file will do the trick.
