High Quality Backgrounds (InterfaceLIFT)


This by far the best site I found on the web for backgrounds (or wallpapers, for Wimdows users). The nice thing about this website is that you can upload backgrounds that you designed yourself, but they must be approved first, which is good, because the website is just full of high quality backgrounds. The search function is awesome. You can just choose the resolution your running and your set. It will show all the backgrounds on the site that fit your resolution. They also have iPhone/iPod touch, Sony PSP, and iPod (nano and classic) resolution backgrounds. 

They're not just limited to backgrounds, they have icons and themes too, but I don't really change my icons or themes. Recently, they released the iPhone version of the website, for easily navigating from iPhone/iPod touch.

I guess thats it for me today. Be sure to check the website out. Blog to you soon.

P.S. Please comment or hit me up at mo010blog@gmail.com for feedback.

Thanks,

iPhone Update 1.1.4 and SDK Info


Apple released the iPhone 1.1.4 update yesterday. It seems like the update doesn't add any new features, except some bug fixes, and the iPhone itself seems faster according to people who tested it. I haven't updated yet, Waiting on ZiPhone to catch up, which I think will happen very soon.

Another bit of news that has been floating around, is that Apple sent an email to reporters on Wednesday, that contains an invitation. The invitation said "Please join us to learn about the iPhone software road map, including the iPhone SDK and some exciting new enterprise features."Apparently the release date of the SDK is set on March 6th.

I'm really excited about the SDK. I can't wait to see what developers will do with the iPhone.

P.S. Please comment and give me feedback.

Thanks,

My Setup!



I thought that my first post should be about my current setup. I'm going to list the stuff that you guys see in the picture first, then I will talk about them a little bit. Ok, here we go:

MacBook:
2.0GHz Core 2 Duo
80GB Hard Drive
1GB of RAM
Monitor:
20 Inch Dell SP2008WFP
1680*1050 Native Resolution
VGA (640*480) Webcam
4 USB Ports

Computer Accessories:
LaCie 500GB External Hard Drive
Apple Aluminum Keyboard (Wired)
Microsoft Laser Mouse 6000
Creative Labs Inspire 245 2.0 Speaker System

Gaming:
Nintendo Wii Console
1 Nunchuck
1 Wii Remote
Super Mario Galaxy
Wii Sports, of course

Portable Devices:
iPhone 8GB (Jailbroken, unlocked, and updated to 1.1.3)

First of all, I should let you all know that I'm using my desktop monitor as my Wii monitor through the XCM 1080p VGA Box (maybe I'll do a review on it one day!). I have the MacBook connected to the VGA box through the Apple Mini-DVI to VGA Adapter, and the Wii connected to the VGA through the component cable that came with the VGA box. I also have the sound output form the MacBook connected to the VGA box. The VGA box is connected to the monitor via VGA cable. Everything else (accessories) is connected via USB, either through the MacBook or the monitor.


Please give me feedback either by commenting or by email at mo010blog@gmail.com

Thanks,
