Seriously, our hands are trembling at the mere thought of having to actually use any of these
shameful peripherals. A camera that takes the good with the (mostly) bad? A star-shaped mouse
guaranteed to accelerate the onset of carpal tunnel syndrome by 409%? A USB fan that blatantly lies
about purifying the hot air coming from that clogged up tower of yours? All present and accounted
for, sir, and that's not even the half of 'em. We have all ideas you too would want to keep your
digits far, far away from any of the disasters linked below, but give the list a look and let us
know which one you think is the most pitiful
of all.

ok this is how i got rid of the problems that arise while AFTER installing a fresh firmware on my
itouch (2.0), i got it jail broken.
All the problems that arise with memory issues or your Itunes has error codes i got rid of by
simple steps
1. ur ipod cable should be DIRECTLY plugged in to the usb port on ur pc..not through a hub..the hub
caused ALOT of problems for me..with itunes and winpwn
2. the memory issues can be solved if u just restart the program fresh while there is no unplugging
or plugging going on with any other port of ur puter..just leave eveyrthing alone while it does its
thing.
3. no custom boot logos..that shit doesnt work for me, so i dont do it..that causes problems as
well
4. they say u should stop all services. ie. apple, itunes, etc.. apple mobile device is a
service..i disabled everthying and then STOPPED the apple mobile device service while using
winpwn..then enabled it when im supposed to open Itunes and update custom firmware..
5. when installing apps..if it says..application cannot be openeed....BEFORE you put any apps on ur
itouch...apple store..download a FREE APP...after that you can follow the regualr guides and
install apps...
Six albums, many of which were previously available only in collector's editions or at BlizzCon,
have been placed on a new Blizzard Entertainment hub page in the iTunes store. In addition, the
Diablo III Overture from Diablo III is available as a single. It will be free to download until
Tuesday (Sept. 9).
When Hurricane Gustav hit the Gulf Coast, the evacuation of the area went much more smoothly than
during Hurricane Katrina three years ago. This time, the local, state and national agencies were
more prepared for a potential disaster.
Similarly, online media outlets and volunteer efforts were also better prepared for this
hurricane, having learned their lessons from the Katrina disaster, when they were scrambling to
deal with the chaotic scene of widespread destruction and mass evacuation.
The New Orleans Times-Picayune’s NOLA.com website, for
example, spent the past three years optimizing its site for breaking news coverage, adding blogs,
increasing opportunities for citizen contributions and arming staffers with videocameras. And NPR
social media strategist (and fellow PBS
blogger) Andy Carvin was able to quickly mobilize volunteers online to create the Gustav Information Center hub and wiki thanks to his experience covering Katrina,
the Southeast Asian tsunami and 9/11 — not to mention the wiki templates from these earlier
projects.
In both cases, previous experiences helped inform a more mature response to the oncoming storm.
How Things Have Changed
In 2005, NOLA.com editor in chief Jon Donley told me in an OJR story that his staff had to radically
redesign the site to effectively cover Katrina, as New Orleans became a one-story town, and the
site was inundated with 30 million page views in one day.
“Our website got a complete redesign [on the fly],” Donley said. “By the time
we evacuated we (had) a completely different design.”
Ultimately, NOLA.com forums and blogs actually helped rescue teams find stranded people in homes,
and the site helped the newspaper win a Pulitzer Prize for its Katrina coverage. Today, not just
the site’s features and design, but also its editorial processes, reflect lessons learned
during Katrina.
In a recent interview, Donley told me that the paper’s reporters all file stories online
first; editors then decide which stories to pull and put into the print newspaper each day. This
makes it much easier for print reporters to consider the web as their primary publishing platform
during breaking news coverage, such as Gustav, when the newspaper couldn’t be printed
because of power outages. Plus, NOLA.com staffers all carry videocameras with them around town in
case they see breaking news. So it was easy for them to file video reports of damage and rescue
operations as they traveled around New Orleans after Gustav hit.
Some iPhone users are finding that bypassing the USB hub and plugging directly into their Macs
helps in reducing lengthy sync times. It may not work for everyone, but it's at least worth a
shot if you're experiencing this issue.
In case you haven't noticed, Cinematical has officially kicked off its coverage of the
2008 Toronto International Film Festival with reviews of two of the biggest films screening this
year: Rachel Getting
Married and The Brothers
Bloom. We have so much in store for you this year, it's best if you just sit back, relax
and thank your lucky stars that someone else is in charge of fighting the crowds, the snarky
journalists and the lack of sleep.
Most of our coverage will land on the main page here, but you'll always be able to find everything
in one place over on our official
TIFF Hub. Additionally, down there to the right of your screen you'll see a
special Cinematical TIFF Widget housing quick links to all our TIFF coverage. Best
of all, you can snag that and put it wherever you want (your site, your friends' site, the site of
a total stranger) -- this way you (and your readers) will always know what's going on in Toronto.
Could we make it any easier?
So, are you ready to check out a sneak peak of this fall's hottest movies? Do I even need to ask
that? Enjoy the coverage, and let us know if there's anything you'd especially like to see.

Outwit Hub est un plugin Firefox proposé par la société Outwib qui devrait
ravir les super-crunchers. Il s'agit en effet d'un outil qui permet de récupérer des
données sur une ou plusieurs pages web et de les structurer, par exemple sous forme de
tableau. Par rapport à des outils de capture comme Zotero ou Scrapbook, conçus avant
tout pour capturer des pagesentières, son avantage est dans la possibilité de
collecter des données à un niveau de granularité plus fin.
Il est ainsi capable de récupérer :
des images (avec possibilité de lancer un diaporama)
des liens
des adresses emails,
du texte non-structuré (qui sera ensuite structuré)
In an effort to facilitate ticket purchasing, SNCF -- France's public rail system -- will commence
a 1,000 user trial of its Weneo smart card system this Fall. Riders will be able to purchase
tickets with the small USB dongles at turnstiles via RFID. Once the balance is depleted, users can refill their
accounts by plugging the devices into a computer, whereby they're transported to the SNCF's online
hub. Since only the rider's account number is stored in the RFID portion of the smart card, this
system allows commuters hassle-free ticket purchasing, all while keeping important information
privy from hackers -
information that some RFID devices seem to have
problems keeping secret. If all
goes well, SNCF expects to expand the use of Weneo nationwide by 2010.
Le constructeur mettra donc deux de ses marques en avant lors de la prochaine Apple Expo. i-Rocks
