Using PDFs in iTunes…
Digg user enjayenel wrote “I love using iTunes as a PDF library tool. I have hundreds of PDF manuals that I need organized access to. I just add them into the iTunes Library, edit the ID3 tags, create a smart playlist to group them together, and turn on the Browse feature (command-b) to get quick navigation to the PDF I am looking for based on title, product name (artist tag), and version (album tag). Double clicking the PDF opens it in your default PDF viewer”. [via] Get a FREE MAKE PDF in iTunes here- Link.
This Mini sure does drive…no pun intended. It’s a USB Flash Drive built into a Hot Wheels model of a Mini Cooper. I saw some various mods using USB drives, such as a PEZ and Lego drives. I think I remember reading something about someone who made a drive fit into a Hot Wheels car, but I don’t remember where. I saw this Mini sitting on my shelf, and figured, hey, I’m never gonna use it for anything anyways, so I might as well put it to use. 
Here’s how you can get your Mac on the Internet using your GSM cell phone (T-Mobile, etc). If you have a CDMA cell phone (e.g. Verizon Wireless, Sprint PCS), see instead How To Use Your CDMA Cell Phone as a USB Modem in Mac OS X. The instructions on this page assume you’re using Bluetooth to connect your phone to your computer.

Here’s the video I shot with Tim Vinopal, Director, Service Delivery Engineering from Connexion, Boeing’s Wi-fi service for aircraft. I was on their experimental test plane, an interesting glimpse of the future of communications in-flight. The video is really noisy (we were in the engineering section, sorry about that) but you can hear some/most of it. 
Amazing past and present mods: the latest are Battlefield 2 cases. 35 year-old German architect Oliver König aka Butterkneter enters the fray with a series of cases with a Battlefield 2 theme. But before we check them out, let’s look at Oliver’s modding portfolio to date… 
The Multifunctional Platform in Mali integrates basic infrastructure elements into a prefabricated, modular package that reduces cost and increases reliability and efficiency while remaining simple and relatively portable. The basic design criteria are that they be: (i) low cost to build and operate; (ii) mature, simple, reliable technology; (iii) all spare parts locally available; (iv) quickly replicated and expanded; and, (v) cost minimization through costs sharing of common components and systems; (vi) simple to operate, maintain and repair by local artisans.
