Jailbroken!
So! I took the plunge and jailbroke my iPhone 3GS last night. I have to admit that I was nervous about jailbreaking, even though I had jailbroken both my old iPhones (2G & 3G). Regardless, the process was extremely easy and went quickly and smoothly.
I was most concerned about the speed of the device after it was jailbroken. All around, I have to say, I’m very pleasantly surprised! Its still fast. Winterboard (the iPhone theming app for jailbroken iPhones) now has a setting to only load on the springboard, so it won’t slow down any apps. This makes a huge difference and the phone feels just as snappy as ever.
So far this is my most positive experience with a jailbroken phone. I just love it.
Nuvola 1.2
This is just a quick update to my Nuvola theme for Bluebird. The main difference is that it shows relative time instead of the regular time (such as ‘3 minutes ago’). When you mouse-over a tweet, the time disappears and reply/dm/permalink/retweet buttons appear. Its kind of fun!
Thanks to Na Wong & Alex Sancho for help with getting the relative time back!

Nuvola 1.1 for Bluebird 1.1
I’ve updated Nuvola. Please see the update here.
I’ve made a quick update to Nuvola for the new version of Bluebird . It is a bit different, now when your mouse hovers over a tweet, buttons for replies, direct messages, and re-tweeting will appear in the upper right-hand corner. ;)

Nuvola!
I’ve updated Nuvola. Please see the update here.
I’ve updated my Bluebird theme that I released last week. Although it looks very similar, it was pretty much completely redone. I have renamed it Nuvola, which means “cloud” in Italian. I figure it fits since it is white, blue and gray. ;)
When you double-click anywhere in a tweet, buttons will slide down for replying, direct messaging, and re-tweeting. It also now features relative time, and when you click the time of the tweet, it will take you to the tweet’s permalink in your browser. Lastly, the background colors have been refined for readability. You can see the new features in action here.
Thank you to Na (for relative time & avatar mask) and to Laurent (for his amazing themes!). :D

Bluebird!
I’ve updated Nuvola. Please see the update here.
So a early beta of the great little Mac OSX twitter application, Bluebird was released yesterday! I have been testing it for the past few weeks, and its just a fantastic little app.
I quickly whipped up a mod of one of the bluebird themes for fun, you can see a preview of it above… and you can download my Bluebird theme here. :)
[For anyone who downloaded it off of my twitter, little changes include: better spacing overall and better-looking direct messages.]

The Stripes Theme
So, late last night (early this morning) I released my Stripes Typo theme into the wild, which you can learn more about and download right here.
Basically it looks just like my site with a few exceptions: the header is customizable (for your blog’s title and subtitle), and looses the top menu and the bathtub sidebar image.
Photoshop CS2 is so slow for me that I now just hate using it. I think that when I have some free time I’m going to have to find my CS box and reinstall Photoshop CS just to keep my sanity.
I swear I have other things to talk about, I’m just way too tired to think, but too awake to take a nap. Oooh well.
