Safari 3 on Windoze (Vista): Impressions One Hour In

The Safari 3 beta went live not much more than an hour ago. This is actually my second attempt to post this using Safari on Vista since fidgeting with my bookmarks took it down smoldering, along with what I’d already written—but it was going pretty well until that point.

Yet another piece of Apple news to contribute to your Apple sickness: Apple has changed their website design.

AppleStore is Down Now, Expect One More Thing

While everyone is following up His Steveness as he booms everyone with Leopard, the AppleStore is now down. Could this mean new hardware? Holographic displays for the new “holograph” mode in iChat?

Japanese Ice-In-a-Can Spray: Better Than a Personal Fan

I hate coming home to Georgia during the summer because it’s hot and muggy as balls—granted NYC sidewalks in the summer make you feel like you’re walking on a clay oven. But Osaka’s Kiribai Chemical Co. has us covered with its canned “ice spray,” which blasts 14-degree (F) frost into your face (you’re supposed to…
