Retina display Mac OSX laptops →
3 months ago ~
So, it seems Apple’s Messages App is already building in support for Retina displays on the Mac.
Rumors have even suggested that we might see our first Retina Display Macs in 2012. One early report claimed Apple was working on a 2880x1800 MacBook Pro for the middle of this year.Can’t wait to play with those Retina powered laptops.

Mail tool for Rails developers →
3 months ago ~
MailCatcher runs a super simple SMTP server which catches any message sent to it to display in a web interface. Run mailcatcher, set your favourite app to deliver to smtp://127.0.0.1:1025 instead of your default SMTP server, then check out http://127.0.0.1:1080 to see the mail that’s arrived so far.
Super nifty tool, easy to install too.

Basecamp about to change that boring gray profile picture to something way more artsy. The funny thing is, I actually like it.

of course I still have to enter my credit card information before I can benefit from the free month.
Of course you do, but the email is nice. I can see some AB testing on those.

Bad behavior from a nice designed App →
3 months ago ~
Path uploads your full address book on their server, without asking or even warning you. Dave Morin (CEO) answered in the post saying they’ll change this, but my answer is:
- It is important for services/companies to have as many email addresses in database as possible, whatever they are saying. It is worth a lot of money for them, for now or a later use (note: it also allows Path to tell you X has signed in, but they could easily achieve similar feature uploading hashes of the mails instead)
- Many other apps do the same, without warning.
However I can’t stop myself from thinking how much of a bad behavior this is.
