The megapixel myth, a pixel too far?
The megapixel myth, a pixel too far?
Great blog with links to some excellent reviews. This is why my 4 Mpixel G2 takes such lovely pictures, even compared to an "8 Mpixel" camera. Also why the 6 megapixel Canon CMOS sensor is such a sweet device -- and much superior to the recent flock of 8 megapixel monstrosities.

IE has long supported this, but it's also an RFC standard! Wish other browser (Firefox?) would do this.

iPhoto 4 fix for corrupted image database
iPhoto 4
First, some of my photos, the ones taken by my alternate camera as it happens, just don’t appear. They appear as empty white boxes and are nameless. Occasionally when scrolling they flash on for a split second – so I know they’re not totally gone. Why won’t iPhoto 4 display them?

Fixing an OS X software update problem:
Safari 1.2
A common OS X theme unfortunately -- when problems occur search on words and delete pref files. Another pref problem test is switching users. The good news is the UNIX naming conventions and OS X file organization helps with finding things. Also, OS X find is super fast. Bad news is the recurrent issue with bad prefs.

I had the same problem that another reader mentioned where Java 1.4.2 would not show on the software update, or would not install asking for the 1.4.1 update, etc. In my case, doing a finder search for all files containing the term softwareupdate (which included preference files, etc.) and deleting them, resolved the problem. Apparently resetting software update files was necessary. After that Java 1.4.2 installed fine.

Network Beacon: share an iPhoto library across the internet
I think this is a front end for some basic BSD Unix functionality. It sounds interesting, one person uses it to share iPhoto libraries across the internet. I'm trying to learn more about it...
