  1. Apple's Greed Knows No Bounds by JimLynch · · Score: 2 · on Amazon, Google Cave To Apple, Drop In-App Buttons

    Here's my take on it. Apple's greed is amazing to behold. And you have to love the conflict of interest between being owning the platform and also competing with Amazon via iBooks. How is it one company gets to take 30% of the sales of their competitor? Apple, Greed and the Amazon Kindle App http://jimlynch.com/2011/07/25/apple-greed-and-the-amazon-kindle-app/

  4. Another scared advertiser? by mikey_by_crikey · · Score: 1 · on The Safari Reader Arms Race

    If web pages actually gave readers what they wanted, they wouldn't need to be afraid. Multi-page articles are a complete annoyance and have now become much more bearable thanks to this feature.

    Just to give an idea of how much the author of the article respects the reader, here is an extract from another article that Jim Lynch wrote about the evil threat that is Safari Reader and what it provides:

    I highlighted the two worst parts of the description:

    1. No ads.

    2. Multi-page articles are now essentially one page.

    Clearly he is thinking about the consumer when creating content if that statement is anything to go by

    On other topic.... his website uses the annoying tynt copy/paste functionality. Argh!

  5. Full Review of Steam for Mac by JimLynch · · Score: 1 · on Steam Client for Mac Launches, Linux Client On the Way

  6. Large LCDs are great by JimLynch · · Score: 1 · on LG Flatron 2320A 23" LCD Media Station Reviewed
    I just got a large Sony LCD and it's terrific. Cost me a mint but it's well worth it. It's very hard to use a smaller CRT or LCD now.

    Considering how much time we all spend in front of our monitors, it's worth spending a few extra bucks for the comfort and space of a nice LCD for sure.

  7. Try using Beehive and Worm (isolate) them by JimLynch · · Score: 2, Interesting · on Stopping Disruptive Users in Online Communities?

    The Beehive forum software has a terrific admin control called "worm" that lets you quietly isolate problem users. They don't know that the only people that see their messages are your admins. Everybody else sees their messages as deleted. You can download Beehive here. You can also check it out on my message board too.
