Yahoo Pipes Is Useful
I actually found a use for yahoo pipes!
Problem: I import my blog posts to facebook as Notes via their import settings. I find that a lot of friends and family comment on those posts, these people don’t typically follow me anywhere else and – I can admit it – I’m a comment whore. I apprieciate the feedback. Unfortunately facebook only allows you to import one RSS feed.
Solution: Create a Yahoo! pipe that includes all my blog feeds and sorts them by pubDate. Import that Yahoo! Pipes feed into facebook.
Here is a link to my feed (you’ll need a Yahoo! account to view the source)

Canada Finally On Google Street View
Sort of.
Looks like Google has added just about every major Interstate and small town to Street View. This means you can now see the Canadian border in many different locations.
I started using OpenDNS again for the first time since Google released Chrome.
When I ran Chrome, I noticed a curious little quirk, Chrome was ignoring OpenDNS’ shortcuts and auto typo correction. I whipped out wireshark and took at what was going on.
By default, every time you enter a character into Chrome’s toolbar it fetches results from google.com/complete/search. Since google knows about every single website, Chrome is able to decide if you’re typing a valid domain without querying DNS. That is, it’s actually redirecting you to a google search results page at the HTTP layer, before your request queries any DNS info.
While it’s not neccessarily a bad way of doing things, it is somewhat annoying.
Luckily, google actually built a great product!
This feature is totally customizable.
To turn it off; pull up “options” under the wrench menu, click the “under the hood tab and uncheck “show suggestions for navigation errors.”

Dear Steve Jobs,
All I want for Christmas is an officially sanctioned iPhone tethering app.
I’ll put out some vegan cookies and soy milk on the hearth.
