Daring Fireball

Friday, February 29, 2008 - 05:18 PM

Ever since I did the ol' switcheroo to Apple a few years back, I've really been enjoying John Gruber's info-licious blog, Daring Fireball.

In addition to being an immensely nice guy (John and I spoke on a panel together at the "South by Southwest" conference a few years back), John is the master at finding useful and interesting Apple tidbits that no one else does. And then he adds a really insightful, funny commentary on top, like a whip cream of awesomeness.

If you're a Mac lover, check out John's work over at Daring Fireball.

Sheldonista Stacey G. sent me a really nice e-mail from Facebook headquarters, this morning. Today's Sheldon strip is already up at Facebook...next to some hallway artwork:
