YES! Delicious Library 2 Beta

I managed to score a copy of DL2 Beta.  I’m checking it out now. Can’t wait for the final.

Doh!

I was holding off saying anything.  But looks like I jumped the gun a bit with DL 2.  Shipley is testing the site first to make sure it’s ready and it’ll stand up to load.  I guess I just assumed updating the site would be the fast and easy bit.

And yes, I already trying putting a 2 at the end of the current .dmg file and going to the uploads folder to see if I could nab it early.  No dice.  =/  *wait wait wait*

I’ve been harping on Wil Shipley on Twitter to finish Delicious Library 2.0.  After replying to me to let me know it was indeed ready now.  He twittered this to everyone:

wilshipley Right now I’m finishing upgrading the store, then going to ship DL2, then I’ll immediately launch Golden-Braeburn with the improved store.

Woo hoo! Break out that extra 20 bucks!

Speed Download 5 not so speedy?

If you’ve upgraded to Speed Download 5 from 4 and you notice that it’s not as snappy as you remember 4 being, you’re not alone. I was wondering what was going on and a did a little poking around. At least for me the download speed was throttled by default to 64k.

Click that little bar graph icon in the lower left of the window and adjust it there. I went for unlimited, if I’m going to download something let’s get it down as soon as possible and get it over with.

iPhone file management

I’m looking at writing a viewer for the iPhone with the new SDK. But I’m trying to hunt down how I can get files to view on to the iPhone. Nothing is very clear there. If I can’t synch the files on to the phone, as I’m guessing I can’t, then do I have to grab the file off the web or something?

Anyone have the skinny on this?

Singularity and Parallels

Well, I got Singularity ( MS’s new mostly managed OS ) built. But now the ISO doesn’t want to boot in Parallels. Of course, no one said that it would. I was just hoping. Parallels throws a hissy fit and wants to report the failure back home. Hrmmm *keeps tinkering* Wonder what’s up.
