Safari Screenshot shortcut

Just found a cool little shortcut key by accident. In Safari 3 ( I'm not sure about previous versions ) you can hit the Apple + I keys to mail the contents of the current browser window. Alternatively you can go through the menus File > Mail Content of This Page. The cool thing is the entire contents of the page will be mailed and not just what is currently visible.

The contents are sent as HTML rather than an image, so this may not be helpful if you are trying to troubleshoot some browser bug.

New MacBook / MacBook Pros

New MacBook and MacBook Pros have been released, with some speed bumps and increase in storage. MacBooks now support up to 4 GB of memory though.

I wonder if the previous MacBooks will take the 2 GB SODIMM modules as well...

Leopard Stacks: Fixed


Just noticed this from reading a PC Magazine post about Leopard 10.5.2 update, Stacks have been fixed in this update. You can now set Stacks to display the folder icon rather than the latest file in the stack. And as such, the previous hack to have a static icon for the stacks is not needed.

You can just right-click on the Stack and select "Display as Folder". You can also use Get Info on the folder and paste a new icon for it. Toggling Display as Folder / Stacks will update the icon displayed for the Stack.

However, if you like to see the stack of files behind your drawer icon you still need to use the Stack Hack.

iPhone's business play

The biggest complaint about the iPhone since its sale has been that it is not business friendly compared to competing products such as the BlackBerry and Windows Mobile phones. Mainly "business friendly" means "integration with Microsoft Exchange" as that it the predominant enterprise email server. These business power users often cite push email as the killer app on their smartphones.

My thinking is that Apple certainly realizes this and would be foolish not to go after the business users. That's why it has also allied itself with Yahoo, a notable Google competitor. There are a few iPhone widgets which use Yahoo's webservices instead of Google's, so there's no doubt there's a close relationship between Apple and Yahoo.

And iPhone does have push email. It's Yahoo Mail. But which company ever uses Yahoo Mail? That's true, but don't forget that Zimbra was recently purchased by Yahoo, and Zimbra's groupware suite offers a viable alternative to Exchange.

Could this help propel the iPhone into the enterprise space?

But as you know, last week Microsoft offered to buy Yahoo (just today Yahoo's board rejected the offer). Now that's a powerful play by the Redmond Giant, one that could transform the tech landscape. But that also threw a monkey wrench into relationship between Yahoo and its partners such as Apple. What will Apple do if Yahoo is gobbled up by its nemesis? The plan to bring the iPhone to business users may be stalled.
