David Emery OnlineIndistr Lets You Choose the Price for Buying Music
Indistr is actually a surprisingly nice site, although slightly hard to browse around. There’s definitely a place for direct artist digital sales, although they’re not going to replace record companies (and their strengths in promotion and finance) any time soon.
Visit ➔Apple to Allow Free iPhone/Touch Apps Without Special Approval?
I do hope this proves to be the case – it would be a big shame to have to go through the hoops of Apple approval (which will no doubt take a while) before getting an app out there. If Apple approval is the only to way to get apps on the iPhone, I’m sure jailbreaking will keep its popularity.
Visit ➔The Broken Web Editor
I still don’t get Wordpress’ popularity – it seems to have so many problems. While Textpattern doesn’t feature the rich text editor Wordpress tries to use at least it, you know, works.
Visit ➔NZRN - On the internet.
Beautiful site design – love the cartography-inspired background and the use of a grid.
Visit ➔Google Talk chatback
Pretty nifty – you can now embed a Google Talk widget into your webpage/blog/wherever and let your readers chat with you without them having to do any setup, logging in etc.
Let’s see if this works:
Visit ➔Bloglines Suffers Major Outage
This is exceedingly annoying; I would switch away from Bloglines in a heartbeat if I could find a alternative that worked in the same way. The two features I need are marking all of the items in a feed read when you view a feed (as opposed to having to scroll through them) and a view all function that groups by feed (not mixed together like Google Reader).
EDIT: Of course, the minute I post about it it starts working again…
Visit ➔I Named Her Monolith
If they can actually implement this interface, Habari (an open source CMS like Wordpress or Textpattern) will be very impressive indeed.
Visit ➔Your Screen. On A Screen. On Screen!
This is pretty awesome – if you use Rogue Amoeba’s Airfoil to stream music to the Apple TV (which is pretty awesome by itself), you get a little picture of your computer complete with a screenshot where the screen should be!

More very wise words from Mr Keith – I couldn’t agree more with this.
