Un-needed Stress Count

I put so much un-needed stress on myself by trying to read every RSS article in Reeder and listen to every podcast in iTunes.

Let’s check in on what today’s un-needed stress count is…

Ok, so 481….

plus 294….. (let’s not count those iTunes U episodes)

= 775… yikes!

If I could get myself to just press “Mark As Read” and “Mark As Played”, I’d probably feel less stressed. But, let’s be serious… I’m not going to be doing that anytime soon.

The only thing I have going for me right now is that my email inbox is at zero.

So, I just found out that Scarlett Johansson is playing Black Widow in The Avengers… UPDATE: Turns out that she was also Black Widow in Iron Man 2… Guess who hasn’t seen Iron Man 2 yet? Hint: It’s me

Liquipel Could Make Your iPhone Waterproof

This is awesome.

I’ve been looking for a way of storing my iPhone in the toilet overnight. Keeping it on the nightstand has become a total hassle!

Apple Is Replacing Faulty First Gen iPod Nanos With Current Gen Models

Guess who’s getting a free iPod in the mail?

Panning for Gold

morrisonfilm:

I got to thinking recently. Why pay $10 or whatever a month for Spotify or Rdio when I’ve got 30GB of music on my hard drive that I never listen to? The problem is I open up iTunes, scan through the list of artists and think “I hate all this crap.” But here’s the trick: I don’t hate it all. I just forgot about all the good stuff.

So I started an insane project. I am rating every single song in my iTunes library. The short version of this story is that I’m having a blast and finding a ton of great music I had lost touch with.

I love projects like this. While I think Shawn may be insane for doing this, I am also intrigued and may even do this myself.

I currently subscribe to Spotify for $10 a month, which I have often thought of downgrading or canceling all together and getting back to the iTunes model of music. Maybe this is the kick start I need.

Tweetbot vs. Twitter's Official App

Dan Frommer:

Thanks to a price cut to $0.99 and the new Twitter launch on Thursday, Tweetbot has been shooting up the iPhone App Store charts, according to App Annie.

I installed Tweetbot as soon as it was released, but then eventually went back to using the official Twitter app. The switch was mainly because Tweetbot made it so simple to view to lists, that I actually was paying less attention to my actual timeline. Most would consider this a nice feature, but to me it was causing me to use the service in a way that I wasn’t happy with.

Then, immediately following the most recent update to the official twitter app, I quickly moved Tweetbot back to my home screen…

Peyton Manning Could Be A Jet

Brian Costello:

Right now it’s a dull whisper, but it’s sure to become a full-fledged scream should the Jets’ season end with anything short of a trip to Super Bowl XLVI — fans and NFL analysts calling on the Jets to pursue Peyton Manning.

Forget it.

All I think of when I hear this is Brett Favre.

We’re seeing proof of what Peyton Manning can do for a team by sitting on the sideline this year. The Colts are currently 0-13.

Upgrade your low-bitrate music files using iTunes Match

morrisonfilm:

Works perfectly.

I’m glad that this works well for most people. But for me, I had at least one album that was upgraded to the censored version. I’m hoping that this will be addressed and resolved in the future.

I enjoy that The Weather Channel’s iPad app feels the need to announce that it is on an iPad in the app name.
