He believed in us

In a world of mediocrity, Steve Jobs believed that we could think different.

Against the press, against the pundits, and against all odds, he stood defiant. He saw something in our nature that no one else could be brave enough to do. He saw that we were not lemmings. He saw that we did not want to compromise for average, for also rans, nor for good enough.

In a world of crap, Steve Jobs dared to believe that there were people who would choose to have it better. This is what I take from his legacy. I take into my every day life and work: the belief that human beings want and will, when given the option, choose to be better than the crap.

I humbly hope that I can inspire others, as he did time and time again, to know that they need not settle on the same old tired B.S.

Logging out of Facebook is not enough

But logging out of Facebook only de-authorizes your browser from the web application, a number of cookies (including your account number) are still sent along to all requests to facebook.com. Even if you are logged out, Facebook still knows and can track every page you visit.

And just like that a very plausible explanation as to why Facebook has yet to make an iPad app has surfaced.

Twitter: The Criteria Collection

In another twitter skits video inspired by the matchless Twitter: The Criterion Collection (also available in Volume II & Volume III) I bring to life toots by @kimproper, @lonelysandwich, @dwineman.

N.B. links to toots go to favstar.fm, so as you can discover other groovy toots by these clever folk.

Apples to Apples, yes. But Apples from where?

Where do you people go to pick Apples, in Mass, NH, or VT? Life long New Englanders, I’m looking at you for help on this one.

Specifically, a joint with a good selection of heirloom/unusual varieties, fresh made cider donuts is of course a big plus, but the main idea is apple picking not donut shopping.

Best served with “tagging” and simultaneous uploading to facebook for maximum gooberness.
