Particular gems stuck out, such as his assertion that HTML5 will create unblockable banner ads, that we&#8217;ll see a resurgence of unwelcome &#8216;splash pages&#8217;, <a href="http://cdslash.net/2010/02/in-reply-to/" class="more-link" onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/cdslash.net/2010/02/in-reply-to/?referer=');">More &#62;</a>]]></description><link>http://cdslash.net/2010/02/in-reply-to/</link> </item> <item><title>Messenger</title> <description><![CDATA[In response to the issues happening on Twitter between a friend of mine, Corinna, and one of Vancouver&#8217;s premiere bloggers, Rebecca, I asked a question on Twitter. The question was this: why was Corinna blocked from the Best of 604 awards, a claim that I heard from Corinna on Sunday night.

This is kind of neat except that it can make corrections you don&#8217;t want. As an example, I&#8217;m doing a lot of domain stuff <a href="http://cdslash.net/2009/09/snow-leopard-automatic-text-correction/" class="more-link" onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/cdslash.net/2009/09/snow-leopard-automatic-text-correction/?referer=');">More &#62;</a>]]></description><link>http://cdslash.net/2009/09/snow-leopard-automatic-text-correction/</link> </item> <item><title>Python-pingdom: accessing Pingdom from Python</title> <description><![CDATA[So after messing around with Pingdom a bit, I discovered that they have an API. More importantly, I discovered that there&#8217;s no Python module for their API, and that their API uses SOAP, which sucks. Their API doesn&#8217;t actually expose a whole heck of a lot very well, but there&#8217;s enough there to play with <a href="http://cdslash.net/2009/08/python-pingdom/" class="more-link" onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/cdslash.net/2009/08/python-pingdom/?referer=');">More &#62;</a>]]></description><link>http://cdslash.net/2009/08/python-pingdom/</link> </item> <item><title>The iPhone 3GS: How does it make you feel?</title> <description><![CDATA[So I had a few days this week to play around with a new iPhone 3GS, courtesy of Tris Hussey and the fine folks at M2O Productions. I won&#8217;t bore you with beautiful macro photography, insipid &#8216;I&#8217;m making a video!&#8217; videos, or side-by-side speed comparisons, because those have all been done to death.
