		<title>Google Reader: Mark As Read Granularity</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m not sure how new this is, but it&#8217;s really great. Since the content aggregated into Google Reader is time-based, and often becomes irrelevant quickly, it makes perfect sense to expand the usual mark as read functionality to include various time spans. Makes paring down a several-thousand-item unread count easy. Epic win.

		<title>Remote Desktop Connection: Useless dialog</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Stop repeating the obvious! I see this twenty times a day, at least.

I fully understand the implications (which aren&#8217;t even destructive! The session&#8217;s gonna be fine in the background!). You don&#8217;t have to remind me every fucking time. By definition, anyone who uses Remote Desktop is not a casual, naïve user. Why do you treat [...]]]></description>

		<title>Expression Blend: Currently running</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Fix the problem, dammit, don&#8217;t just tell me about it! I see dialog in Expression Blend often:

Here&#8217;s how I get there: I build the solution, I have a look at it, I see what&#8217;s wrong, I switch back to Blend, I fix the problem, I want to build it again, and&#8211; D&#8217;oh! I forgot to [...]]]></description>

		<title>Feedburner: Tab names, clever or patronizing?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I can&#8217;t decide. Is the use of &#8220;-ize&#8221; on each navigation tab a clever way to enforce parallelism (one of my favorite rhetorical devices), or silly, trite and another example of how lolspeak iz killing teh English? Weigh in below.



Feedburner: Tab names, clever or patronizing?(surveys)

		<title>Safari 4: Favicon moves on focus</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This one makes me laugh. Shifting elements around a few pixels on focus isn&#8217;t a terrible idea; I&#8217;ve designed it, and it looks great in flat comps. It can give an element more dimensionality if it looks like it&#8217;s physically pressed in, for example. However, when it comes to implementing it, it just ends up [...]]]></description>

		<title>Apple Remote Desktop: administering the administrator</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Why no love for multiple/nested remote connections? I really don&#8217;t get this one. If you&#8217;re using Apple Remote Desktop (or Screen Sharing in Leopard), you can&#8217;t remote into a machine that&#8217;s running a remote desktop client.

That&#8217;s unfortunate, and something Microsoft&#8217; Terminal Services does with no fuss. In fact, it&#8217;s specifically designed for it. Connect to [...]]]></description>

		<title>Marketing Message Fail</title>

		<title>Safari/Mail: integration, not so much</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Teasing with features that don&#8217;t work sucks. In this case, Safari offers to mail a link to the page. Nice, right? Well, no such luck when I actually tried to use it:

Huh. OK. Well, I do use Mail.app; maybe it&#8217;s not set as the default mail application or something? Well, nope, that&#8217;s not it:

So, really, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Adium: cute and informative</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The drag-to-install is a pretty standard paradigm in OS X, as is using a custom background image to spiffy up one&#8217;s disk image folder in Finder. This example from Adium combines instruction with cuteness in a particularly stylish and memorable way. The duck(?) throwing up his wings is adorable-tastic.

Let&#8217;s see. The computer is from Vista, the globe is&#8230; I dunno where it&#8217;s from, but it looks familiar. The webcam is the camera app on the iPhone, and the folder-and-hourglass job is, I think, from an old KDE theme. Way to slap that one together, guys, [...]]]></description>
