As most of you I’m sure know by now, Microsoft has shelled out $300,000,000 to revitalize the company in the eyes of consumers.

iTunes 8 is a welcome update. It, combined with iPod touch firmware 2.1, has alleviated many of my backup-related woes, and it has also introduced some nice visual additions.

Recently released into private beta was the phenomenal piece of software, Dropbox, which allows speedy and seamless folder syncing over the internet. I find it an invaluable addition to my Mac, but unfortunately, it’s icons stick out a bit. But wait… I make icons. Problem solved.
This pack of icons does three things, all independently available for you to pick and choose.
1) Changes the icon of Dropbox to a more Mac-like look
2) Changes the menu bar icon to a black and white one that fits in better. While it transfers, it turns blue to alert you.
3) For those of you that installed Colorful Leopard, I have made a dropbox folder icon that fits in with the Colorful Leopard theme. It also has a small version that appears in the Leopard Sidebar that fits with the rest of the sidebar icons.
This icon set is all about fitting in. Check it out in the Portfolio!
Dear Sarah Lacy,
I would have felt sorry for you. But I all could do was feel sorry for Mark Zuckerberg, no matter how horrible Facebook is, it could never live up to that interview. You cut him off, you blabbed about your own book, you pretended like you two were best of pals. Then when it became apparent that you sucked, you yelled at the audience. Then you had the guts to say that you thought it went WELL? You’re not all you crack yourself up to be.
