Thanks so much Daniel!
An old bf left an ethernet hub in my technical stash. That must mean I have an ethernet cable.
Yay!
I wonder if I can transfer the copy of Photoshop on the laptop to the classic environment on the eMac.
Too much to expect?

Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!

I have the best DH in the whole wide world - I woke up this morning with a shiny new iPod Touch on my desk!!!
So my question to all the techistas is, what sites do I need to have bookmarked in order to make sure I'm using this new toy to its fullest? Has anyone figured out yet out to install Freecell or Scrabble on it?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Happy Birthday, Jess!

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
Hey folks. I've got a website I want to monitor for changes: [link]
I want to have it checked about once a minute, and it display a visual notification, make a sound, send an email or some such when it changes.
And I'm on a Mac...
Anybody seen anything like that?

Hey Jess, does the iPod touch do internet at all? I know iTunes doesn't have any games for the iPhone or iPod touch yet, so there's nothing native you can put on there yet (as far as I know, I only know the iPhone so far), but I know there's a couple of web pages out there with iPhone web apps/games, so if the iPod touch does internet in any way, you can find quite a few games for it that way.

once a minute? you need an RSS feed of the page.
this is good, but I don't think it updates that frequently:

That's one of its main selling points! It has wifi. It's an iPhone, without the phone.

Oh, and apparently you can put native games on your iPod touch, if you're willing to hack it. Something I am utterly unwilling to do with my iPhone.

I thought so. So yeah, Google "iPod touch web games." there's a few out there, including Bejeweled, and a few solitaire games (though I don't remember if I've seen Freecell out there anywhere).

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Oh, and apparently you can put native games on your iPod touch, if you're willing to hack it.
You can also install widgets on an iPod touch. (I'm pretty sure, anyway.) Or maybe only widgets based on HTML and Javascript. There are some Javascript games that run on web pages out there....
