Links for 15 August 2008 through 16 August 2008

17 August 2008 in Daily Links by del.icio.us | 2 comments

Stilgherrian’s links for 15 August 2008 through 16 August 2008:

iUSBCam | Ecamm Network: Software to make a USB camera work with Mac OS X as a webcam, not just Firewire cameras or the built-in iSight. I haven’t tried it yet.
Down for everyone or just me?: Sick of people asking you whether some website is “down” for you as well? Point them here.
CNN: Is Obama the Anti-Christ? | YouTube: A CNN compilation of US news reports speculating that US presidential candidate Barack Obama is the Anti-Christ. The proof? That there are 900,000 Google search results for “obama anti-christ”. And this makes it 900,001. Idiots.
Oz-IA/2008: Australia’s Information Architecture conference, to be held in Sydney on the weekend of 20-21 September. I’ve been invited to go and do some live stuff. Should I?
What’s Behind the iPhone 3G Glitches | BusinessWeek: A discussion of possible causes behind complaints of dropped calls and choppy Internet connections… and of course Apple’s usual denial of any problem and no further comment.
The Unclutterer Workspaces Pool | Flickr: A group pool of folks showing off their elegantly uncluttered workspaces. My desk cannot appear here.

Hell *yes* go to IA/2008. Eric Scheid is fabulous, and deserves all the shiniest luminaries available.

@Viveka: well, you’ll be pleased to know that I’ve confirmed my attendance at Oz-IA, and now I’m wondering what to do from my media perspective.
