The Official stevenf iPhone Review – “Amusingly, web pages with the most flexible layouts (say a table with a single stretchy column) have the most trouble adapting to the iPhone usage pattern, because iPhone Safari renders the page to a fixed width, rather than wrapping words like most mobile browsers, you’ll end up zooming and panning on these types of pages.” – you can never make any assumptions about what a user’s browser does to your pages.

FreeBurner for Everyone – very nice, although I’m starting to worry quite how much data Google has of mine. If they add Google Analytics integration I may succumb anyway.

Web Sheriff DMCA’s Scouta Over YouTube Content Uploaded By Warner Music – copyright control is a pretty tricky process…

Mossberg: Apple working on Adobe Flash support for iPhone – no real surprise here; I think as most people are locked into a 2 year contract we’re going to see quite a few significant software updates.

Cameron offers bribe in return for censorship – wow – he’s really a lot more clueless then I thought he was. This idea of music censorship is utterly stupid.

May I have your TwitterGram, please? – so, Twitter is to blogging as Twittergram is to podcasting?

Chaos – 2 years on and it still feels recent.

Bonus Link: iTunes 7.3 ushers in welcome UI changes – they’re small changes, but good ones. They really had to make them, though, as iTunes 7.2 doesn’t match the system-wide look that 10.5 uses, whereas 7.3 now does.
