Apple announced the iPhone today. (via Engagdet)

My initial response is iDrool, iDrool, iDrool...

My second response is ... wait, only a 2 mega-pixel camera? Come on Apple, get a bigger mega-pixel camera... Nokia has 3 mega-pixles already released (i.e. Nokia N80) and the Koreans have 7-8 megapixels camera phones.

My third response is... but how will it moblog? Will it run Terminal or SSH? Can I add another browser, as I am not all to fond of Safari? What is its extensibility?

While the iPhone as displayed today is revolutionary for its gorgeous large screen on a small device and the finger touch pad screen UI, who wants to be locked into a two year Cingular contract with only 2 megapixels? Not me.

It would be lovely to have OS X natively running my mobile device for ease of use and transferring of files, but me, I am willing to purchase a pricey mobile device if the camera, UI, and data / internet features all add up to ease of blogging to this website directly from my phone.

Nokia, the gauntlet has been thrown down. I love your Karl Zeiss lenses, and multiple mega-pixel cameras, but the Nokia PC Suite and Lifeblog only interface with Windows OS. Nokia, it is time to come out and play with OS X* and keep up with the Jobs'.

*Free me from an iSync that does not interface with my Nokia N80.

Unique bird of the day: Saw a crow pulling a part a small hawk on top of a rusted metal oil pump/rig in Long Beach today. Was wondering if the hawk was dead or alive when the crow got it? Due to driving by at 45 mph, did not take a photo.

Thomas Hawk on PhotoWalking: I may not agree with TH on all his points, but here is very good guide on how to take daily photos everywhere you go. The main point is to take a camera with you at all times, big or small, and take photos.

The SixtyOne: The Music version of Digg. Have you used it? Added songs or got inspired by SixtyOne?

SVN: While I hate SubVersion with a passion, C. Michael Pilato has been kind enough to put up a pdf version of his O'Reilly book online. I will try to reconcile myself with SVN. Maybe. Maybe not. Darn it all, I like FTP!
How Windows Users are Conditioned: Tom Negrino sums up: "It was like a tire puncture or something; just one of those things that happen. And that's what I find so pernicious about Windows. It's conditioned tens of millions of people to the idea that computers are unreliable and a huge pain in the ass. And that things that go wrong just can't be helped."

Ben Brown on why he quit Facebook: "I don’t want the Internet to be the bastard child of basic cable and Walmart. I want the Internet to be something better, where control of the media really is democratized and where I can truly find content and services that are crafted with me and people like me in mind." (Ms. Jen says - Preach it, brother!)
