“The advantages to companies are obvious; instead of trying to get consumers to remember a seven-digit toll-free number, they can place the keyword in their ads, user manuals or other marketing materials. People are more likely to remember “Apple” than 800-694-7466, the company’s iPhone support number.”

I love reading this stuff.

This masculine vegetarian sandwich includes smashed avocado, faux chicken, ricotta, toasted potato, tomato, pepper, and ranch on a freakin’ bun. Faux buffalo wings to garnish.

See, I really did take Gizmodo off my list. Ten years ago Giz with Joel Johnson (Joel still does) ruled, but when they’re not buying stolen iPhone prototypes they just stab and grab from Engadget and Uncrate anyway. And MAKE is just awesome.

(And yes, I am running Google Chrome on my Mac with a brushed aluminum skin.)

Fixing the Google Notifier delay

Brief: I’ve scrapped Apple’s desktop Mail app for the time being — because I find that running my domain mail through Google Apps aka Gmail via browser has been much more pleasant and robust for organization.

Problem: The Google Notifier by default seems to check so sporadically — sometimes 18 minutes between checks.

Solution:

  1. Click on the envelope icon
  2. Press both command and option keys and click on preferences in the drop down menu
  3. A box with both Key and Value prompts will pop open
  4. Under Key, type AutocheckInterval (case-sensitive)
  5. And enter a number value for the time you want it to check i.e. 5 for five minutes
  6. Finally, quit and re-open the Notifier
