NIN in the studio? New material soon?

Wednesday, February 10th, 2010

Reznor has just posted some new interesting photos on ninentitled “?”

Last time this happened it was the release of The Slip which was offered as a free download and later purchased digipak.

Sounds like the Halo volumes are back?

Here’s a neat and free trick. Logictech have created an app for iPhone that allows you to control your pointer all over the screen, just like a trackpad.

It allows basic multi-gester too, such as scroll – no three finger flipping.

Fix PDF in Safari

Monday, February 1st, 2010

If you’ve just installed Adobe CS3/4 you may be wondering why your Safari on OS X can’t display PDFs anymore.

It’s because Adobe mucked up the plugin which tells Safari to choose an application to view the PDF files.

To fix the problem go to:
/Library/Internet Plug-ins/

and delete the file:
AdobePDFViewer.plugin

Restart Safari and you will be looking at PDFs in a snap.
