Showing the contents of an RSS feed with Junecode
Someone asked me recently if it’s possible to subscribe to an RSS feed from a Junecode site. The subscription feature, which adds entries from another site to your own, can only be used with other sites that use the same installation of Junecode.

Here’s a sample of how it… Read more »
VoiceOver tips for iPhone developers

Apple Repairs and Your Admin Password
This weekend my new 13" MacBook Pro started making a noise so horrible that it woke up my fiancée. (It didn’t stir me the slightest, but not much does.) The sound was awful enough that the first thing I sleepily Googled for was “MacBook Pro death rattle”. Once I was awake and listened a bit more it was clear the fan needed to be replaced. I made an appointment at the local Apple Store as soon as possible. I did some reading online and it sounded like most people were able to get… Read more »
