HOLYmac! We’ve had some significant issues with our website today which resulted in diabolical mass-erase of our design – hence the state in which you read this. We’ve decided not to cry about it, and in fact relaunch a brand new look effective immediately!
Well as immediately as we can. We expect be the week’s end. It will be a super relaunch with a full iPad-friendly, mod-con-coded, SEO optimised, WPO ultimised, WordPress-driven power site.
Stand by.
The Chromium Blog have released details of the released Chrome versions for Mac and Linux. They say outright “whatever you do, please DON’T DOWNLOAD THEM! Unless of course you are a developer or take great pleasure in incomplete, unpredictable, and potentially crashing software.”
So the choice is yours. Here’s the dowload link for Google Chrome for Mac http://blog.chromium.org/2009/06/danger-mac-and-linux-builds-available.html
By word Google, you’ve done it again. You’ve given we web folk another simple tool that makes our life easier, and our websites faster. The newest addition to the Google stable of website wonders is Google Page Speed. It’s officially open-source, and works in cahoots with FireFox and FireBug (so you need both those tools to run it).
Page Speed takes Firebug to another level, showing you some really cool stats and facts on your test page. Some of the coolest features are ….
And there are plenty more worth mentioning, including …
Page Speed is a MUST try, so here’s the Google Page Speed download link.
Everyone is talking about Google Wave. There is a demo video available from the Google I/O 2009 Conference. When I saw the 1hr 20min duration and thought “no way! I am NOT watching that”. But then I read Seth Godin talking up Google Wave, and I couldn’t help myself.
I’m trying to get a Google Map API for a website that uses Google Apps hosted mail. You would expect Google to recognise, and accept, a Google Apps hosted email address as a “Google” account, and authorise the API accourdingly. Wrong. In order to get the API, I have to create a new Google account, using the pre-existing Google Apps email address. What a joke.
That’s FailMail if you ask me. And just an absolute WAISTE of an email sign-up. The account will never be used, and Google is already HOSTING the entire company’s email. Why Google, why..?
HOLYmac! Google Apps is doing some really strange things right now.
I took some screenshots, because I’m sure it’ll be fixed in no time.

O ChromeforMac, O ChromeforMac,
wherefore art thou ChromeforMac?
Deny thy OS & refuse thy name;
Or if thou wilt not, be but sworn my Mac.
Holy Mac! Google indexed our last article in under 8 mins. Ironically, that article was suggesting how good a 1hr index timeframe was. Maybe Google have a bias index system that expediates any article spreading Google love..? Or maybe the Twitter Effect is real (Twitter’s Real Time Search is scaring Goolge) ..?
Indexed in under 8 minutes. Holy Mac!
