John Gruber's Excellent Digg Blocker
10/04/09 11:18 Filed in: Hacks
John Gruber posted his annoyance with Digg’s new DiggBar which completely changes how diggs links are represented and his own hack to stop Digg from loading his pages into their frames. I love it.
Apple Closing .Mac HomePage
09/04/09 17:27 Filed in: Web
Apple has decided to close the quite lame ‘HomePage’ service from their now changed .Mac service. This makes a lot of sense since you can now publish with iWeb right to me.com service.
From Apple’s Email
Instead of HomePage, we recommend the other sharing features of your MobileMe membership. With MobileMe Gallery, you can share photos online directly from iPhoto or the web application at www.me.com. And using iWeb on your Mac, you can create custom websites and blogs and publish them to MobileMe.
Apple will keep your current HomePage pages up as long as you want to keep them, you just will not be able to make edits.
