Uninstall MobileMe

Thanks to Derek E., who notes that there's a hidden feature of iTunes 8: You can now uninstall the MobileMe control panel, which was a huge complaint from previous iTunes versions. Here's a shot: Obviously, it would be better if this piece of junk was optional, but at least now you can rid your...

MobileMe photo upload finally fixed on Windows

I check almost every single day to see whether it’s finally possible for Windows users to upload photos to MobileMe using a Web browser. It’s never worked right. But as of today, it actually works.

You know MobileMe is a piece of junk when ... (Updated)

Hello, Android

Obviously with all the iPhone 3G hoopla from last week, there's been a lot of Apple, Apple, Apple here and elsewhere. But the iPhone isn't the only viable smart phone platform in town (though I'd argue it's still the best one and, oddly enough, already the most mature). I'm also interested...

Firefox Mobile

Finally, Mozilla is waking up to the opportunities of mobile computing with the sort-of-because-it-happened-in-a-blog-post announcement of the company's plans for this space: People ask us all the time about what Mozilla's going to do about the mobile web, and I'm very excited to announce...

Windows Live Contacts

I've been writing (and, on the podcast, talking) about my ongoing move to Web-based services a lot lately, but one thing I've had trouble settling on is an online contacts management system. (As noted in What I Use , I've had to temporarily use a local Outlook-based contacts list.) Despite...
