Christmas is just around the corner and I’m pretty sure everybody has a person in his life who, to some degree, is a wine lover.

Hinckley Cellars created a pretty neat product helping enjoying this hobby: “The Wine Label Saver”.

The tool peels wine labels from bottles so they can be saved in an accompanying leather journal. It is made entirely of stainless steel with a leather blade cover and comes in a wooden keepsake box.

Prices from $64 to $98, the later one with an italian leather wine journal.

Check out the video below or order directly from Hinckley Cellars.

Happens all the time, you have a shoot but no image stabilizer. No problem, just go and grab a chicken…

It’s so funny!

iPhone OS 2.2 und die Rechtschreibkorrektur

21.11.2008 · Leave a Comment

Man glaubt es kaum, aber mit dem heute erschienenen Update auf Version 2.2 des iPhone OS hat Apple nicht nur die Möglichkeit eingebaut die Rechtschreibkorrektur abzuschalten, nein, sie wurde sogar anscheinend komplett überarbeitet!

Und siehe da: Es funktioniert! Ich kann endlich Texte schreiben in denen Worte wie “Freund” vorkommen und muss nicht einen bescheuerten Vorschlag wie “Freünd” ablehnen.

Toll ist auch das nun meine Mails wieder empfangen werden auch wenn das Gerät im Standby ist….

“Danke” Apple ;-)

Apple releases Aperture 2.1.2

21.10.2008 · Leave a Comment

Apple released a minor new version of Aperture 2 today.

Improvements:

“Printing of commercial products through Aperture has been improved. Apple has released Aperture 2.1.2, which “improves the printing quality of books, cards and calendars ordered through the Aperture printing service.”

I downloaded it this morning and none of the annoying errors from the previous version are gone (namely the bug where Aperture doesn’t start when you have a vault-backup on a mounted network-volume).

Get it via Software Update or download it here.

Remove all copies of a file from a time-machine backup

16.10.2008 · Leave a Comment

It’s nice to have time-machine as it works flawlessly most of the time. It’s also very nice to go back in time to a specific version of a file.

But sometimes you need to get rid of ALL copies of a file for different reasons.

Here’s how:

1. Startup time machine by either hitting the icon in your dock or clicking the time machine icon in your menubar and then selecting “Start time machine”.

2. Navigate to the folder/file you want to delete and select it.

3. Click the “gears-icon” in the toolbar and select “Delete All Backups”

That’s it. If you wanna play safe, do a free space wipe of your time-machine volume to ensure all evidence is gone ;-)
