TODO: Vienna really needs an 'undelete last tab', which most tabbed browsers already possess. As much as we would wish it, Vienna isn't the speediest nor most responsive RSS reader out there. My normal work flow is to go through skimming all the headlines in all the feeds, selecting all the articles I want to read as Tabs.

One came up with something very interesting, that fitted in with conversations we've been having with other IT journalists for some time: What’s the future of the web? On one...
A new small Mac app has been getting a bit of attention lately called TinyGrab . Its function is really straight-forward; it intercepts screen grabs you make and uploads them to its webserver for public sharing. Very nice little idea actually, and whenever I’ve needed to solve this task I’ve just used DropBox , which I am absolutely in love with (my DropBox referral link if you don’t...
Everyone says they don't like web apps because they don't want to have to work through their browser. They don't want to have to be online to use their text editors, and they don't want to have to load every single thing, especially when they're not sure about the quality of the connection they're on.
