How do you manage the icons?

@Michael - I use Installer.app to manage what apps are installed/uninstalled. As far as controlling how the icons are displayed (order, etc.) I use a combination of SummerBoard and rSBT.

@Spencer - OMG you mean that if I unlock my iPhone, void my warranty, install 3rd party software, and bring it into an Apple store running a T-Mobile SIM card, they’ll refuse to replace/fix/support it? Bastages!
You know, I took the engine out of my Subaru and put a Toyota engine in it. WIth lots of experimental mods on it. And I took it to my Subaru dealer, and they wouldn’t fix it under warranty! I’ve been blacklisted! :-O

Hey bloggers: In stats, do you care more about unique visitors, or visits, or pageviews, or something else? Why? #
Small world - I’m in an Intel meeting, and met @diancrawford. Nice to meet you, DIan! #
Thanks to all for the great feedback on what site metrics you care about. Boils down to “how good is my stuff, and how many are reading?” #
Wait, what? There’s a new iPod Shuffle? Now it talks to you. Controls moved to the earbud cord (boo!). $79 for 4GB isn’t bad, though. #
@bmw It’s $79 for the 4GB shuffle, and $79 for the Apple earbuds with the controls. The pack in hard plastic ones KILL my ears, can’t use em in reply to bmw #
Seriously, though, the lack of ability to use non-Apple earbuds (or a 3rd party adapter with controls) on the Shuffle is a real bummer. #
This $9 adapter from Fastmac has inline play controls that work with the iPhone. I assume it works on the new Shuffle: http://bit.ly/16v07c #
I have that Fastmac adapter, and use it with my iPhone. It’s great for keeping the inline controls/mic, but using any headphones you want. #
@verso The Radio Remote has that little extra connector, right (my old one did)? I don’t think that will work with newer iPods. in reply to verso #
Now that I think about it, I don’t think that Fastmac adapter will cut it for inline controls. It only has the clicker, not up/down. Alas… #
@verso I think the new iPhone headphones would work, but my problem is that the don’t fit my ears, hurt, and fall out, so I can’t use them. in reply to verso #
RT @chadmor Pretty sure you can do a little hip shake to change songs on the new shuffle. Motion sensors in everything (THAT would be cool!! #
I love these little Sony MDR-EX51 earbuds: http://bit.ly/bwezE COMFORTABLE, sound great, cheap enough (~$15) as to be basically disposable. #
Like I needed another electronic source of distraction… #
Dear Twitter: What’s the best way to get something from Google Reader into Delicious? Tried a few Greasemonkey scripts, no worky. Help? #
@dougcoleman That script (and the 4 others I’ve tried) aren’t working for me. I’m in Safari 4 beta (Mac) using GreaseKit, to complicate. in reply to dougcoleman #
@mattbeck Did your WiMAX router/dongle get upgraded, or the tower you’re connecting to? That’s an impressive speed bump, nice to hear. in reply to mattbeck #
Just got followed by @notatsxsw. Which is true. I’m not. #
Google Reader just became a little more like FriendFeed, now you can comment on Friends’ Shared Items: http://bit.ly/10FzpA #
If you’re not my “friend” in Google Reader, I’m jabancroft@gmail.com if you want to add me. I find a lot of really good stuff there. #
Crap. I loaned my Kindle’s mini USB cable to someone who needed it “just for a few minutes!”, and now I can’t remember who. Was it you? #
@aaroneiche Thanks. I’ve actually got a ton of them (yay for mini USB being a de facto standard!). Just mifffed they didn’t bring it back in reply to aaroneiche #
Today’s discovery: it’s shocking how similar the rules and tips for building relationships on the web are to those for dating. :-O #
Woo hoo! Three new people are now sharing their Google Reader items with me! Thanks @blogan, @samgrover, and @jenfloyd08! #
Oops. I accidentally exceeded the socially acceptable number of exclamation points per tweet in my last one. Sorry. Won’t happen again. #
@blogan @samgrover Uh, I thought I was sharing with you. I’ll double check when I get to a computer. You’re right. This is convoluted. in reply to blogan #
If you can’t see my Google Reader shared items it’s because you’re not in my contacts. Email me (jabancroft@gmail.com) and I’ll rectify. #
I recently gutted my Gmail contacts to set up OTA sync with my iPhone, so that’s why a lot of you are missing. Sorry! #
GrandCentral relaunching as Google Voice. Gaining text msging and vmail transcription. Will remain free. AWESOME. http://bit.ly/eMoJL #
I have used my GrandCentral number as my main/cell number for years. It’s the one posted on my blog. I LOVE the service. Truly lifechanging. #
Can’t wait to get the new Google Voice. So glad they relaunched it instead of killing it after buying GrandCentral. #
RT @spin: Anyone wants an invite to the new Google Voice, follow @googlevoice and DM them… so a little bird tells me, anyway #
Have I told you all how much I love and appreciate you? #seriously I do. You rock. #

@marshallk Fogo de Chao (Brazilian Churrascaria, basically all you can eat meat) would be a GREAT place for a meatup at SXSW. in reply to marshallk #
@mellowynk LOL Fogo de Chao definitely = “Meat Church” I would worship there regularly if there were one near me. I love churrasco! in reply to mellowynk #
Trying out Intense Debate again on my blog. It choked a few weeks ago, and prevented people from leaving comments. Hope it’s better now. #
*sigh* Intense Debate says it’s still importing “100 of 5188 comments”. That’s where it got stuck before. #
@kenekaplan That’s like saying “I joined the ‘People Who Breathe’ group at SXSW”. Have fun! I won’t be going, but watching from afar. in reply to kenekaplan #
Even with all the drama today (rejected for NSFW words in Trends), I just got the @Tweetie 1.3 update. Using it now. Yay for RT! #

Just got ID’ed at the gas station. For buying gas. Must be that new “fight underage fueling” program. #
@hangry Ooh, thanks for reminding me of Castle. I’ll watch anything with Nathan Fillion in it (at least once ;-). in reply to hangry #
Hey podcasters: what’s the state of the art in recording Skype calls on a Mac these days? I had a system worked out. Is it any easier now? #

@blogan Twitter Tools doesn’t split tweets over the wrong days anymore, but I can’t get it to post on the schedule I want (forces 11:59PM). in reply to blogan #
Just spent 3.5 hours helping my roofer run the hose over sections of my roof, to track down that dang leak. We may have found it… #

@opbmorning Just heard about you on the radio (well, the stream I was listening to on my iPhone). Following! Welcome to Twitter, Geoff! #
@BrianEnigma there are a bunch of free Kindle books right now. Go into the store, show all, sort by price. Free samples of most books, too. in reply to BrianEnigma #
@buckmasterflash @MCP85 The size of the screen I’m reading on doesn’t matter. I’ve read hundreds on old PDAs. You just page more often. in reply to buckmasterflash #
@buckmasterflash Hey now, I started wearing glasses long before I started reading ebooks. Blame the dead tree books for that one. in reply to buckmasterflash #
@jindofox LOL congrats on the new machine! I can’t help it. I try to use my powers only for good! in reply to jindofox #
Trying an experiment. I wonder if a) anyone will notice, and b) anyone will complain. #
Heh. This other experiment has turned out to be a lot more fun than the first experiment. #
@kwspence Great post, thanks for sharing that. in reply to kwspence #
Hmm. Looks like Twitter’s having a fit. SSL/HTTPS is not working. Says twitter.com/home “page does not exist!” API stopped working for me. #
@blath @zecharias I am an iPhone guy, through and through, but congrats on launching a BlackBerry app! (www.blackping.com, a ping.fm client) in reply to blath #

Surprise! New Apple hardware day! I love it when they drop these stealth lineup refreshes. #
But it makes me wonder what the rumored Apple event on March 24 is all about, if it’s not fake? #
Glad I held off on buying a Mac mini for my new home theater setup. Now, to deliberate and ponder about actually pulling the trigger. #
@PatrickMoorhead Software-wise, netbooks are no more or less risky than any other PC. I can see their size making them easier to steal, tho. in reply to PatrickMoorhead #
Wondering if the new Mac mini is the ultimate HTPC/@Boxee machine? How well will it play back 1080p HD stuff? #
I’m also interested in the new “dual band” mode on the new Airport Extreme. I’d love that. Enough to sell/replace my current AEBS? Hmmm… #
@verso No HDMI, but you can convert DVI to HDMI with a $5 cable. And it has digital optical out for audio. So don’t let that stop you! in reply to verso #
@jmoriarty Was just announced this morning, should hit stores soon. I don’t remember dates, but it’s Apple, so maybe tomorrow? in reply to jmoriarty #
@aweiss A Mac mini has a LOT more horsepower for video decoding than an Eee Box. And does more (Front Row, iTunes, etc.) because it’s a Mac. in reply to aweiss #
@funkatron Yup. Wonder if one is better? With both DisplayPort Mini and MiniDVI, you’ll need a dongle for either to do DVI -> HDMI. Hmmm. in reply to funkatron #
@aaroneiche AEBS dual band would mean I could run the faster 5GHz-only mode for my Macs, and still use my 802.11g stuff (iPhone, Wii, etc.). in reply to aaroneiche #
@aweiss Maybe Front Row isn’t worth the extra, but having a full blown Mac, with all it can do (web, other media, etc.) is worth it to me. in reply to aweiss #
@funkatron If MiniDisplayPort carries audio, AND you can convert to HDMI easily (keeping the audio), that would be SWEET. in reply to funkatron #
Hey, if you have a minute, I’d love it if you could post your ideas/comments to this post in the next little while http://tinyurl.com/b4uo2r #
@AndruEdwards I don’t know of any ways to get the Apple TV app running on a Mini, but that would be cool. in reply to AndruEdwards #
Thanks for all the great responses to my “what would you teach a lawyer” post. Presenting in 15! #
Law firm presentation went great - very well received. Had WAY more to talk about than time allowed. Guess I’ll have to go back sometime! #
Big news from my group at work today: Intel Academic Community now connects 1000 universities in 72 countries. http://tinyurl.com/1000Univ #
@jramvi Not hospitalized, but near it (infection in my leg). Getting better now. Haven’t tried Easy Peasy 1.0 yet, but I will soon! in reply to jramvi #
I can’t believe that the new 24″ iMac, with 4 GB of RAM and a 640GB hard drive is only $1499. That’s a terrific value, you ask me. #
@sirtwist For how much less can you spec a Windows PC with an integrated 24″ LCD? Or even an external one? No skimping! in reply to sirtwist #
I need a clean, fast, simple, nice looking WordPress theme. Any suggestions? #
@blogan I realize that’s pretty broad. Anything with support for “asides”, the way K2 does them, would be superawesome. in reply to blogan #
@blogan Because I’m dumping K2. in reply to blogan #
@spotcher Ooh, thanks. The Journalist 1.9 looks pretty nice. May try that one. in reply to spotcher #
@blogan Yeah, apparently it’s pretty easy to add asides to any theme. Looking for a simple plugin to do it now (found links to several). in reply to blogan #
@AdInfinitum Ooh, Thesis looks really nice, too. Very feature rich and flexible. Is it fast, or does it bog down under its own weight? in reply to AdInfinitum #
@AdInfinitum Oh, wait. Whoa. The Thesis theme costs $87. Too rich for little old amateur me. New criteria: theme must be free. in reply to AdInfinitum #
Holy holy holy crap! Amazon finally released a Kindle app for iPhone! Going to grab it from the App Store right now. More to come! #
The Kindle App for the iPhone works EXACTLY like I dreamed it would. Grabbed a bunch of screenshots, working on writing up a post now. #
Here’s my review post on the new Kindle iPhone app, with lots of screenshots. http://bit.ly/eNId2 Let me know what you think of the news! #
@gregjsmith I’ve been talking about a Kindle app for iPhone ever since I got my Kindle a year ago. It seemed so perfect. And now it is! in reply to gregjsmith #

Back in the office for the first time in days. Email backlog not as bad as I’d feared. I haven’t touched a computer since Wednesday. #
OK, so Gmail isn’t down. I can access it (web and IMAP) on my phone. So I think I’m suffering one of those “work proxy hates Gmail SSL” bits #
@pdxjdangel Yes, I was the one. On the Wii, GH:WT is the most compatible option. Instruments work with all GH games, and RB2 (not RB1, tho). #
So, Gmail Contacts and GCal now sync to the iPhone via Exchange ActiveSync. Anyone tried syncing a desktop client that way? Say, Outlook? #
@gregjsmith Yeah, I was thinking that since Contacts and GCal now speak Exchange (sort of), it might be a better sync option than before. in reply to gregjsmith #
@gregjsmith But how many calendars? Gcal sync to Outlook only supports one, right? Not that I want to use Outlook. Just wondering aloud. in reply to gregjsmith #
Uh oh. I think Gmail just went down again… I’m getting a 400 error from mail.google.com. #
@Mettadore You require 100% uptime from your mail host? Gmail has actually been (anecdotally) more reliable for me than Exchange at work… in reply to Mettadore #
@Mettadore You could keep Gmail synced with an offline client via IMAP. Or am I missing something? in reply to Mettadore #
@Mettadore Sounds like Hotmail to me. in reply to Mettadore #

Thank you all for the well wishes. At the urgent care now. Gimme antibiotics! #
I have an infection (cellulitis) in my leg, which is the cause of my woes. Not contagious - good news for people I’ve breathed on. #
