Google Latitude.

The folks at Google are stinkin’ genius. Sometimes I wish I could have this much fun with my job… 

If you’ve got some spare time on your hands, go check out how they did it.

Wordpress - Quickpress.

As annoying and cumbersome as it may be to update my self-hosted Wordpress site… I have to say I’ve been quite impressed with the last 2 updates that they’ve rolled out.  Version 2.7 brought a very slick new UI that I absolutely love.  Now… version 2.7.1 brings a brand new Dashboard module called “Quickpress.” Check out the screenshot below.

This is a fantastic little add-on to the already impressive Wordpress UI.  For those of you spontaneous bloggers, this will be a handy tool.  Excuse me while I go upgrade to 2.7.1.

Picasa For Mac.

I’ll have to admit, one of the hardest things about switching to a Mac 3 weeks ago was losing Picasa.  As a PC user and a photographer, I’ve used Picasa extensively over the past 4 years or so to organize and edit my photos.  Picasa is a GREAT program and it’s free… I’m so stoked to hear that they finally released a beta version for the Mac.  I’ve downloaded the beta and already put it to use tonight.  The thing I love about Picasa in comparison to iPhoto is its ability to make non-destructable edits and save that your edits / changes to the photo within the Picasa software… so you can always go back and undo changes… forever.  Great stuff!  If you’re a Mac user, go get Picasa!
