A few weeks ago, Reader's Digest contacted me, wanting to use one of my photographs for their June/July issue in association with an article they were doing about affordable art resources on the internet.
Hmm...let's see...most widely read magazine in the world...translated in 19 languages...global readership of more than 100 million...
"Uh, sure, I guess you can use my photograph..." :-)
Here's another picture of my series on readers who take advantage of the nice weather to read outside everywhere. /
Voici une autre photo de ma série sur les lecteurs/lectrices qui profitent de la belle température pour lire dehors un peu partout.
A more complete photo of all the prototypes of my TinyTap interactive readers in print form. They look really good if I may say so myself.
Again no real photo, I guess we'll have to wait for my yearly Rhodes pilgrimage for those.
1. Finder. The icon is from a set of icons from Indiana Jones 4 courtesy of iconfactory.com/freeware/icon
2. Safari. Replacement icon from www.interfacelift.com
3. Google Reader desktop app created with Fluid: fluidapp.com/
4. Things. The best, task, list and project management. I am syncing it with Things for iPhone. www.culturedcode.com/
5. Stickies. Replacement icon from iconfactory.com/freeware/icon
6. Mark/Space Notebook. Syncs via Missing Sync for iPhone with Fliq Notes for iPhone. Contains notes and information that I carry around that goes back to my Palm times, even pre-Tréo.
7. Evernote - Industry standard notes application. Text, voice, pics, PDFs. All this synced between Macs, PCs, iPods, iPhones, you don't even need to install the application, a browser plugin or email submission will do.
8. Splash ID. Passwords, logs and other sensitive or plain personal information. I am a happy returning customer from my Palm devices. I even migrated my database from those times.
9. Whether you write a personal journal or a blog, or even a novel, this jewel from Mariner Software will be a perfect tool for you.
10. Before Apple realised what a huge mistake it was to leave out a voice note taking software from the standard iPhone apps, the best software around was iTalk. I am still using it. This is the desktop counterpart to the iPhone application, from which I have the paid edition (I like "my" developers well fed, driving nice cars and happy).
11. Delicious Library 2. Take your book or DVD, game, tool, toy or even clothes, bring up the code-bar to your iSight camera and... boom - it has been scanned and entered in your electronic inventory. A tool with an amazing usability, unlike most other software that claims doing the same.
12. DocumentsToGo for iPhone. Yet another software that has been delivering mobile computing users amazing quality for a while. Have been using this since almost 8 years. Not one paragraph has budged in formatting, not one character has changed when transferring documents back and forth and editing.
13. Mark/Space Call Log. Part of the Missing Sync for iPhone
14. Mark/Space SMS Log from the Missing Syng for iPhone
15. Missing Syng for iPhone
16. Screenflick. Screencasting software for quick and dirty movies. Great value and perfect quality. No integrated movie editor.
17. Screenflow. I could write a mile-long eulogy to the glory of this software. Screencasting at its best. Integrated movie editor. Flexible, easy to use.
18. Last.fm
19. Skype
20. My Documents, Downloads and Trash. The first and the last have icons from the same set as the finder icon.
My friend Dan uses the employee entrance with an automatic door and card reader access. Before the card reader was installed, he could roll up to the post and hit the foot switch with his foot rest for the door to open. Now, a card reader was installed (see the black box posted below the hand switch). His employee ID card has a microchip in it. When he rolls near the card reader, the card reader reads his card and sends the signal to the door to open.
This system was installed after Dan's advocacy for accessibility. It's not hard to do, and not expensive - just takes the willingness to look at new ideas.
10:50 a.m., Journey Social, Lancaster. I asked permission. He is reading the poet Derek Walcott's book of essays, 'What the Twilight Says'.

I got my inspiration from those two alpha cards, which are Studio Calico ads, really, I just got the reading photo developed and thought of these cards, and the page was born.
1:20 p.m., Storey Institute, Lancaster. Karen Jo was serving as docent for the show 'Lancashire Electric' by 'Imitating the Dog', greeting visitors and talking to them about the installation. Meanwhile she was reading 'Just Kids' by Patti Smith. She is interested in Patti Smith's work and in that period, New York in the 1970s, and she also likes the look and feel of the book. She says she likes books now that are attractive and well-designed in themselves, things she will want to keep and and not just pass on to the charity shop when she has read them.

Every reader is born in the lap of their mothers
I am throwing a book baby shower this weekend and so I have been busy gathering things.
This book was mine as little girl. I actually remember it.
A Riot of Quiet is the title. It is a cherished treasure.
I hope for the mommy to be she will spend many hours with her little one in her lap reading and treasuring moments.
2:30 p.m. Portland International Airport. Nick is waiting for the flight to Seattle and reading Alexander Solzheniitsyn's The Gulag Archipelago.
