Whoa guys, that was a start! MacStories Festival is online since yesterday but the feedback has been great! I must admit, I never expected something like this.
But - as I said many times now- it’s not over.
I’ve got big news for you!
Whoa guys, that was a start! MacStories Festival is online since yesterday but the feedback has been great! I must admit, I never expected something like this.
But - as I said many times now- it’s not over.
I’ve got big news for you!
I told you guys, MacStories Festival isn’t just a simple BIG giveaway contest.
No, it’s more. It’s an event, a real festival for all you Mac and iPhone users out there. So, what have we got here? An exclusive interview with the famous graphic designers Emanuel Sà.
You can find his official website here: http://www.emanuelsa.com/
Enjoy! :)
Just as I promised you guys, MacStories Festival doesn’t stop at Mac apps.
No, we want to satisfy every Apple lover out there so…here comes its little brother: MacStories Festival, iPhone Edition!
If you recently switched from Firefox to Safari, you’ve probably noticed the lack of browser addons. While there are thousands of addons / extensions / whatever for Mozilla Firefox, there’s no doubt that Safari is not a very customizable browser. But anyway, there are a few developers who have developed excellent plugins (that’s how they are called in Safari) you should definitely check out.
Today, I would like to talk about Thurly.
If you spend a lot of time working with your browser, it’s very likely that you’ve heard of Userscripts. As the name suggests, user scripts are small code snippets meant to enhance your browsing experience. Scripts simply edit some aspects of your favourite web pages thanks to some css and / or javascript.
There are scripts that works with google.com, Facebook, Twitter…every famous website out there, mostly. These scripts are usually loaded with a browser extension: on Firefox we have Greasemonkey and on Safari its less known brother, GreaseKit.
I love Apple’s Finder: since I switched from Windows to Mac OS X, Finder has slowly become my favourite app. It’s pretty obvious - I know - but I just can’t stop thinking about how things were ugly, hard and non-user-friendly when I used Explorer.
With the release of Snow Leopard the Finder has been completely re-written in Cocoa, fully supporting 64-bit. For this reason now we have live previews, more core animation goodness, more stability, more everything. But Finder is - and always will be, I believe - a “dock app”.
And here comes MenuBrowser.
Following my previous tutorial about How To Get Vertical Tabs on Safari 4, you may have wondered how I succesfully managed to edit the browser’s .nib file using Interface Builder.
With the release of Mac OS X Snow Leopard, Apple decided to make it more difficult for advanced users to edit .nib files: that’s part of how they built SL to have a smaller footprint. Indeed, if you try to edit Safari’ Browser.nib file, Interface Builder will say that it cannot open complied .nib files.
As always, there’s a workaround for that.
