Good news, everyone: the upcoming Reeder 3.0 for iPhone (and hopefully iPad) will support Fever, an alternative to Google Reader with some slick features. Granted, you need basic HTML/PHP chops since Fever is self-hosted, but it’s my preferred feed reader and the only reason I don’t use it regularly is because there haven’t been any good apps. Until… well, soon.
What! That’s actually pretty amazing news. This is also the only reason I stopped using Fever a while ago. Though, I now user Reeder everywhere, so I guess it doesn’t matter what it talks to.
The next time you make breakfast, pay attention to the exquisitely intricate choreography of opening cupboards and pouring the milk — notice how your limbs move in space, how effortlessly you use your weight and balance.

“I hope I’m wrong, but I think this is just the difference between putting your dog down and letting it free on a distant mountain road.”— John Gruber on HP’s announcement they’re making WebOS open source.
I think at the very least people are going to take advantage of all the Javascript UI stuff that was built into WebOS that is now going to be available for anyone to use.

Why Siri Can't Find Abortion Clinics & How It's Not An Apple Conspiracy - Search Engine Land ⇒
“I’m standing in front of a Planned Parenthood,” the CNN reporter says, “And Siri can’t find it when I search for abortion clinic.” No, it can’t. It’s not because Apple is pro-life. It’s because Planned Parenthood doesn’t call itself an abortion clinic.
You mean the ‘Apple and Siri are pro life!’ non-scandal might—just might—boil down to the simple limitations of technology, search engines, and shoddy knee-jerk “journalism”?
