It’s impossible to simply “ReTweet” witty things your bros post on Facebook, but you can repost links, videos, photos and events easily. You can send them as a message or just repost them to your profile. My next post will explain how to tag peeps in Facebook so you can credit them, but for now here’s how to share that video of Buzz Aldrin punching some dude.

I was talking to the king of techies yesterday and in a moment of transparency admitted he didn’t know how to get rid of Facebook invites without rejecting peeps.

There’s a tiny link below the “Yes/No/Maybe,” options that says “Remove from my Events.” If you don’t know what I’m talking about or are having trouble locating the link here’s a video.

Top Ten Must Have Jailbreak Apps For The iPhone

by Tim Cox on October 16, 2009

I just published a list of Jailbreak apps that should convince anyone that their iPhone can do better. You can find the same list in my Must Have iPhone Apps list, but in the Cult of Mac article I give a healthy description of the app plus a couple of screenshots.

Use your iPhone from your desktop! There are tons of creative uses for this app, including accessing your iPhone when you’re just too lazy to get up and get it.

I use my iPhone as a desk calendar and then make calls through my bluetooth headset so I don’t have to direct my attention away from my work. I’m just kidding I don’t do that. That would be pathetic, but it’s possible with Veency.

Amazon.com_-Kindle-Wireless-Reading-Device-6_-Display-U.S.-International-Wireless-Latest-Generation_-Kindle-Store-1

I didn’t think it was possible to have a mobile device with 3G and not have to pay a subscription fee. But apparently Amazon is a big enough conglomerate to make things happen both in the US and Internationally.

Also the price isn’t too gouge-y.

You can pick up the US version for $259 and the US and international wireless Kindle for $279. You can also go big with the Kindle DX with US Wireless (no clue why no international access) for $489. You can also use Kindle on your iPhone which is one of my must-have iPhone apps.

Please Don’t Put Your iPhone in a Case

August 26, 2009

When I first went to pick up my iPhone 3G, I was scared. I know what my hands are capable of: Horrible, unthinkable acts of clumsiness. I’ve hurt myself. I’ve hurt others. I’ve even hurt my kitties. So why would I want to put this salvific piece of tech gold into harms way? I need [...]
