Displaying Your ZYB Data on Your Site
In a previous post I added an example of how you can display your (or someone else's) lifestream data on your iGoogle page. But it's your data and you might actually want to show it on your site. As we write in other posts we are working frantically to give you access to as much of your own data as possible, but for now you can only get your profile data, lifestream and shouts.

Post beta 4, the ramdisk hack stopped working. Sorry Zibri, guess you’ll have to steal another exploit.
Apple doesn’t appear to upgrade the bootloader on phones in the field, probably for fear of breaks. So any old iPhones out there today, regardless of version, can be unlocked.
The iPhone 3G uses a different bootloader, which I believe there aren’t any known exploits in yet. So no unlock."

Take screenshots with iPhone 2.0 software
Running the new iPhone 2.0 software? Want to grab a screenshot of something? Turns out it's amazingly easy. Hold the Home button down, then tap the power button on the top of the phone. The screen will flash white, and that's it -- the screenshot has been taken.
Open your iPhone's Photos app, and you'll see the just-taken photo in your image library. This works amazingly well, and it's nice to see a factory-bundled solution for those of us who write about the iPhone!

Firefox Mobile Concept
Mozilla Labs - Blog Archive - Firefox Mobile Concept Video: "Firefox is coming to mobile. The innovation, usability, and extensibility that has propelled Firefox to 200 million users is set to do the same for Firefox in a mobile setting.
User experience is the most important aspect of having a compelling mobile product. Every bit of interaction and pixel of presentation counts when typing is laborious and screen sizes are minuscule. Many of the standard interaction models, like menus, always-present chrome, and having a cursor, don’t necessarily make sense on mobile. It’s a wickedly exciting opportunity but there are myriad challenges to getting it right.
One avenue for exploring this opportunity is through Mozilla Labs, which is about pushing the envelope towards better and brighter interaction horizons, as well as incorporating a winder community into the innovation process. This concept video explains one direction we are thinking in, and we’d love to inspire participation in thinking about other directions.
Standard Mockup/Experimental UI Disclaimer
All of the images and videos are only conceptual mockups of an experimental UI for Firefox Mobile, any particular feature may end up looking entirely different, or may not even make it into the final release."

Google Android
iPhone-Fan - alles über das smarte Handy: "Bei der gestrigen Präsentation von Android auf der Google I/O Konferenz in San Francisco fühlten sich viele Beobachter an das iPhone erinnert. Menü Icons und Bedienung erinnern an das Apple-Produkt. Hier haben die Google-Entwickler starke Anleihen genommen. “Ich denke, das iPhone ist ein tolles Gerät mit einem großartigen Browser, das in vielerlei Hinsicht unser Ziel verfolgt: Das Internet auf mobile Geräte bringen”, sagte Vic Gundotra, Googles oberster Ingenieur, in seiner Ansprache. Er wünsche sich, dass jedes Smartphone so gut funktioniere, wie das iPhone."

Google Earth Blog: iPhone Earth - Coolest Things I saw at Where 2.0 2008:
Last week at the 2008 Where 2.0, there were a number of interesting technologies being shown in the exhibit hall. One of the most interesting exhibits I saw was by a Boulder, Colorado company called earthscape. They showed a number of interesting things (see below), but what really impressed me was when their CEO Tom Churchill pulled out his iPhone to show me how they're working on a 3D Earth application for the iPhone. Check out this video I made as he demonstrated it to me"

Is Facebook the Future of Search? - TIME
Baking a tarte tatin seemed an ambitious task for a newbie cook, but with the inclement weather outside and an orchard's worth of ripe fruit and other requisite ingredients in the pantry, I decided to tempt fate. But, as is typical with my ventures in the kitchen, things quickly got out of hand. I was about to Google the solution to my cooking dilemma, until a response to a status update on my Facebook profile — which read "Bill is cooking tarte tatin" — pre-empted that move and caused a dramatic paradigm shift in my view of the Internet's utility.
