Link your mobile to your Mac with Glide

turn your cell phone into a macGet ready to glide down the street when you have your Mac documents synced up to your mobile device ready to edit wherever you are.

Glide Sync and Glide Mobile are ready and willing to give Mac users access to view and edit files that are stored on your homebound Mac using phones from Blackberry, Nokia, Palm, Motorola, and more.

Glide will automatically sync photos, music, videos, documents, iCal's, Mac Address Book, Safari, Camino and Firefox bookmarks using Glides hosted web service. Users can compose or edit documents, accessing them later on a Mac. Photos can be edited with standard image tools, files can be sent via a .mac email address with no size limits, and supposedly multimedia websites can be created from cell phones.

There are many different Glide plans, from a free account with 1GB of data, to a "Family premium package" with 8GB for $149.95/year.

Google's sekrit plans revealed

GoogleGoogle Blogoscoped has published a summary of an apparently-leaked internal Google memo that outlines the Big G's secret plans to breed evil radioactive mutant rats, er, take over the world, er, make a ton of money this year. To summarize the summary, this year Google planned to:

  • Improve infrastructure and make engineers more productive with uber-search tools
  • Build 10MW of green power toward its goal of becoming carbon-neutral
  • Become the best in search (duh), which includes building the world's top AI lab, eliminating spam, and launching products with UIs that "that people love"
  • Sell lots of ads, with a goal of $1 billion in new business this year
  • Expand communities and content, in particular video
  • Push Google Pack deployment
  • "Increase the scale of innovation"
  • Test a "radically improved" Google News prototype in Q4

There's lots more in Google Blogscoped's report, so if you're a Googleholic like us I don't recommend missing it.

So, just how good at time waster games are you? Think you've got the stuff? Well, The World's Hardest Game 2.0 doesn't think you do. Yes, amazingly, it's possible to have a sequel to a game called "The World's Hardest Game". It doesn't seem logically possible, since if the first one was actually the world's hardest, how could another one come along and share the moniker? It made me doubt the name in the first place.
