Pixadex: 5562 Icons and Counting
There’s something really cool about the Mac OSX look-and-feel: big neat icons. And not only is it perfect for the dock, it’s also great to embellish Keynote presentations, articles, or even the posts on this blog.
As a software developer, I often need cool icons for toolbar buttons and consequently have a really large collection of 128×128 icons. The downside is that it is really a pain to manage all of these files in an orderly fashion. And what about converting them from one format to another, or having a global view of all of them? It used to be a pain until I discovered Pixadex, by The Icon Factory. Pixadex is one of those cheap little apps that can make your life so much easier.
A Cup of Java for the Mac
As a passionate software developer, I am what people sometimes call a computer geek. And yet there is something very special about my geekiness: I hate coffee. I have to confess that I have never drunk a single cup of coffee and yet – I love Java!
Ok, right, that’s a bad word trick that has been used thousands and thousands of times. Of course the Java I’m talking about is not something to drink, it’s something to write: I’m talking about the programming language.
