Alright Twitter, I have a bone to pick with you. If your Twitter service is going to go down every two days, I don’t just want to see a Fail Whale: I want to see an animated Fail Whale! So leave it to a Safari Extension called Release the Fail Whale to make my silly dreams come true. Delivering the Fail Whale in high-def CSS3, never before has such fail warmed my Twitter heart.
Check out Release the Fail Whale on Rawksome’s excellent page and test bench.
While Emoji is enabled for our friends in Japan, the United States never received the same love and attention, and at times, had hissy fits over Emoji keyboards available in the App Store. So while iOS 4 does and doesn’t have emoji available to customers, Apple is intending on updating the little emoticons to be used with applications like FaceTime and Google Maps. At least I think so according to Patently Apple’s latest finding, which shows Apple taking a deep interest in making stock and custom emoji prevalent in certain applications.
We might not be able to deliver cross-platform Flash applications to mobile devices, but we can implement HTML5.

Bummed that some of the newer Mac updates don’t come with Core i3 processors compared to their cheaper, PC counterparts? CNET’s Rich Brown says not to worry.
As spelled out by CNET’s Rich Brown in his review of the new Mac Mini, performance is good enough. Comparing it to the compact Gateway SX2840-01 desktop, the Gateway’s 2.93GHz Core i3 processor does outpace the Core 2 Duo but “in practical terms that performance difference likely won’t mean much to those shopping for a system in this price range,” he writes.
The new Mac Mini is definitely a safe purchase (and college students can get $50 off with the education discount).
