MDI: Now Mac-like?

John Nack on Adobe: Future Photoshop UI changes
Pretty interesting post from Photoshop's senior product manager about the betas of CS4 apps, which I'm just starting to kick the tires of, multiple-document-interface (single-window) apps, and whether or not they're Mac-like.

Seriously, that's just pathetic.

A merger aside

All of the merger talk today reminds me of a joke of my mom's from a decade back:

Mom: Did you hear that Netscape bought out Yahoo?
Me: No, really?
Mom: Yeah, they're going to call it Netanyahu.

LASpeaking of Andy Baio, this isn't as nice as the mobile version of Upcoming on Leaflets, but if you want to get a quick look at movies, concerts, and gallery showings currently going on in and around Los Angeles, try LA Weekly Go Mobile, my skunkworks repackaging of LA Weekly's listings. For better and worse, it loads the widget as one big bolus, so while it takes a few seconds to come up, it then lets you click around instantly to different days and categories once it loads. This is both unofficial and a work in progress, so there's a ways to go, but I welcome the suggestions of anyone who happens to stumble upon it.

There's no way I'm going to be able to kill a whole afternoon at work when White Whine only updates once a day. (via the resurgent Waxy)

Ladytron pictures

Ladytron put on a free concert at the outdoor mall down Hollywood Blvd. from me last night. Natasha and I went out and got some pictures. A couple of samples:

Shamrock Shakes

X-Entertainment: The Quest For McDonald's Shamrock Shakes!

McDonald's has long offered triple-thick "Shamrock Shakes" around St. Patrick's Day, but as the treats have become more elusive in more recent years, they've garnered a cult following on a level similar to Tori Amos, the simple difference being that people will still buy Shamrock Shakes when they hit 40.
