It's orange for a reason

iLounge: Apple unveils iPod shuffle in four new colors

'iLounge: Why orange - the first time in iPod history for this color?

Joswiak: "It's just gorgeous. It's just something that's going to look nice in fashion scenarios."'

Orange is also now an important branding colour for Apple. Don't get it? This image should make it pretty obvious... (click to enlarge) This is why there is now an orange iPod

But yeah, it is gorgeous, too. :-)

Grassroot bloggers to register with Congress?

Congress to Send Critics to Jail, Says Richard Viguerie

""In what sounds like a comedy sketch from Jon Stewart's Daily Show, but isn't, the U. S. Senate would impose criminal penalties, even jail time, on grassroots causes and citizens who criticize Congress. "Section 220 of S. 1, the lobbying reform bill currently before the Senate, would require grassroots causes, even bloggers, who communicate to 500 or more members of the public on policy matters, to register and report quarterly to Congress the same as the big K Street lobbyists. Section 220 would amend existing lobbying reporting law by creating the most expansive intrusion on First Amendment rights ever. For the first time in history, critics of Congress will need to register and report with Congress itself."

Wow.

ZOMG! BluePhoneElite 2

Mira Software, Inc.: BluePhoneElite 2 (via Theocacao)

Thank you! I've been wishing for this app for years now. A couple years ago I briefly looked into what it might take to do this and, well, it was a lot more work than I had time to handle. I'm so glad someone has done it!
