Here’s an interesting hack:
Use your phonecam to take pictures of the business-hours signs at your favorite restaurants or other shops, so that you’ll never have to wonder if they’re open at 4AM on Sunday morning again.
I’ve only found two comic book viewers — apps that will display compressed, scanned comic books — for OSX:
Jomic is large, slow, and Java-based [which you should have guessed from the prior description]. It doesn’t support gradiated image zoom (that I could find), so you can only view images at either full-size or fit-to-window, which is bad when you’re trying to read comic books on a smaller laptop screen.
The only reason to get Jomic is because its rival, CB Viewer, hasn’t seen an update in a few months. I’m not sure if development has ceased, or the author is just busy. Otherwise, CB Viewer is fast, small, and handles gradiated image zoom quite well.
It warms my technophilic heart to see this Mac mini leeched to the back of a large plasma screen, quietly injecting Apple-ness into the display.
To further my World of Warcraft fandom:
The Kill on Sight mod gives particularly hated enemies a red “dragon” identifier above their name icon, so as to help you remember them if you happen to run across them again.
This is pretty handy for me, although none of my characters are really to the point of being able to handle any type of PvP encounter.
