Really, UOB, what do you think people will use your random string of numbers for? Reciting out loud? Buying 4D? Making fun of you?

Oh. Oops.

Nice typo, Straits Times. (Probably meant “celebrity monk”, but who knows.)

I went and bought The Best Camera, another set of iPhone camera filters. Hooray! More filtering!

Singapore Learning? Yes, I’m sure there’s something to be learned from this, hur hur hur hur.

The site is by local education vendor AsknLearn, which makes a really, really bad learning management system. I had to deal with them for a year in my role as IT coordinator for my school, and I wanted to dig my – or their – eyes out every time something just. didn’t. work. Which, of course, was very, very often.

YFSIUTM – “Your Flash Site Is Useless To Me” – is a series of posts where I belittle sites that look stupid or become useless when viewed with a Flash blocker. I use the venerable ClickToFlash with Safari for Mac. I’m sure there are others out there.

Really. The Singapore Government Web Excellence Awards is entirely in Flash. Is this supposed to be ironic or something?

I LIKE LARGE ICONS AND I CANNOT LIE

Also, I like that Snow Leopard doesn’t call screenshots “Screenshot X.png” any more – now they’re timestamped.

I tried syncing my iPhone yesterday, and got an “unable to sync, error 13019″ error message.

Some quick googling landed me on this Apple support page (Error 13019 during sync), which recommended de-selecting syncing voice memos and trying to sync again. If that failed (yup), de-select syncing music to try again (failed). Then videos, podcasts, etc. until a successful sync could be performed. All of this failed, so the page recommended I “attempt to sync an empty iTunes music library to the device while logged in as a new admin user”. Ugh! No!

What eventually worked for me: looking through the Voice Memos app, finding 8 of the same voice memo, deleting them all then syncing. Hmph.

I’ve created a new page on the blog that shows where else on the internets* I’ve been hanging around. Take a look here.

* Yes, I actually have trouble saying “the internet” any more. Damn you, internets!
