Wow RT @esquareda Apple responds to iPhone 4 reception issues: “You’re doing it wrong.” http://bit.ly/cyu09e #iphone4
Snapple Real Fact #726: A polar bear cannot be seen by an infrared camera, due to its transparent fur.
After Effects tip: always render uncompressed image sequences rather than movie files. If you crash, you don’t start rendering from scratch.
Not understanding the need for http://960.gs. Shouldn’t designers be doing this already with their own html/css?
Was not expecting the ending to Red Dead Redemption!

Lots of people camped outside the Emeryville Sprint store waiting for the EVO 4G launch today.
HP clarifies: When we look at the market, we see an array of interconnected devices, including tablets, printers, and of course, smartphones
New WebOS smartphones may still be coming. http://bit.ly/csXXyR

Wow HP won’t continue building @palm smartphones. Very sad, I think their phones are heavily underrated. http://bit.ly/aBSq06
