iPhone Power Tip

When forwarding or replying to an email, you can have only portions of the content from the previous emails appear.  So, if you're forwarding something and want to cut out all the extra unneeded stuff, here's what you do.

When viewing an email, simply highlight the portion of the email you want included in the reply or forward, and hit "Reply" or "Forward."

That's it!

Man Vs. Information

I’m a news junkie… Well more like an info junkie. Whether it be breaking headlines from the Drudge Report, trends in tech from Engadget,  or the latest in single malts from the Whisky Exchange, I am constantly scouring the best of what the web has to offer to satisfy my information hunger pangs.

For that reason, more and more I’ve been turning to the iPhone/iPad app Zite.  The highly polished news-magazine-reader app is sleek in its simplicity, and a pleasure to use. In addition to offering the usual channels of news, Zite offers users the ability to create their own custom channels, even connect their interests by connecting via Facebook and Twitter. Zite takes it all and creates a customized magazine for your viewing pleasure.  What I’ve been especially enjoying are the articles it pulls from sites I never knew existed.  I don’t need another app to give me a prettier view of the rss feed from Gizmodo – I need one that introduces new sites, new horizons, and new info to me. That is where Zite excels in my opinion.

Or maybe I’m just stoked because my Whisky channel in Zite just told me about the site whiskyblender.com.

Steve Jobs Biography: Why you need to be reading this book.

When I started reading this book I found it fascinating to recall where I was when Steve had his many product announcements. I'd say the majority of them were at my desk reading the various liveblogs. Steve Jobs reveloutionized the world of mobile computer and being an iPhone owner makes me appreciate the attention to detail that Steve is known for.   While I might not agree with the way he ran his business, he had an uncanny ability to create products consumers didn't know they needed yet. Let me know what you think.
