Today’s Links (30/11/04)

• Nokia Collector
  A file transfer and sync utility for Nokia phones/Bluetooth devices and OS X. It doesn’t work with the (my?) 7610, though, so I can’t tell if it’s a solution to the lack of iSync support (it’s not clear if it’s limited to media files or includes vCards, calendar items, etc.)
• Sleep paralysis | Metafilter
• GQ : FEATURES : GENERAL
  Assorted celebrities share their memorable Prince experiences. (I do that a lot, much to the annoyance of everyone I know, no doubt)
• 2Entwine | FotoBuzz Viewlet
  Flickr-style Flash image notation for the masses, released under a CC license. Very slick.
• New Netscape embraces Firefox, IE | CNET News.com
  Interesting - I wonder whether folk will only use IE mode when absolutely necessary, or stick to it all the time falsely assuming they’re getting the benefits of Mozilla?
• Help available for ‘drunken diallers’
  Genius mobile service that lets you block dialling certain numbers while boozing it up. Chillingly, the number I’d need to block would be the quasi-legal 24hr Dial-a-Booze.
• iriver Global Home
  Submit bug-reports on the new iRiver website to win a mystery future iRiver device. It’s a hellish soup of shady HTML, Flash and unwieldy JavaScript, but I don’t think that’s the sort of bug they’re after.
• Top of the Pops leaves BBC One
  TOTP is committing slow suicide before our very eyes. Rather sad.
• Ginsberg’s Celestial Homework
  Specialized Reading List for “Literary History of the Beat Generation,” a course taught by Allen Ginsberg at Naropa Institute during the summer of 1977.
• Podcasting takes off
• Jack Tools 0.51
  “Jack Tools is an OS X implementation of Jack, and it installs everything necessary to take full advantage of Jack on OS X”
