I came across these nice, clean iPhone backgrounds via Casey Liss. Unfortunately they’re only in the iPhone 3/3G resolution and not iPhone 4/4S. Also there’s no iPad or iPhone 5 versions.
I spent an hour or two last night, in photoshop, putting together something together using those ones as a starting off place. I’m pretty happy with them! Especially the red and blue ones.
Feel free to download and use them.

With the release of the iPhone email client mailbox and services like Mailstrom it seems that the idea of reaching “Inbox Zero” has never been more popular. However getting to inbox zero is the easy part – you can just delete everything! – staying there isn’t.

But as with all addicts, I can’t leave it at a look, so I often buy a domain name, just the one, it’s cheap – until you own ten of them!
With that guilty admission out of the way, right now we are the luckiest people to be alive, in lots of ways, but for this post, I’ll be focussing on domain names. No one else will ever have the domain name opportunities we have today. We have … Read more…
“Curiosity was framed. Avoid it at your peril. The cat’s not even sick.”
That was the opening line of marketing guru Seth Godin’s latest blog, and in my opinion, one of his best. He attributes the quote, or at least the first part of it, to C. J Cherryh. The full C. J. Cherryh quote is “Ignorance killed the cat. Curiosity was framed.”
The attitude of “curiosity killed the cat” is so blinkered, and downright scary. Yes curiosity can be dangerous – but only if you’re ignorant. Curiosity removes that ignorance.
