Apps I Love, iPhone|

The chickpea is neither a chick nor a pea - Disqus.

Apps I Love|

OK, this is another one that isn’t exactly an app. Disqus is a comment system that I recently installed here. I had been toying around with different forms for a bit until I stumbled across Disqus over at Victor Cajiao’s Typical Mac User site.

Fluid

Apps I Love|

Twitter. Photoshop Express. Flickr. I love web apps. I use web apps a lot. I’ll squeal over them later. This post is about a free download that makes all of those web apps live on your desktop. (Sorry - this one is Mac only.)
