I believe you already noticed the twitter updates on the sidebar. Yes, I am attending WWDC 2009 this week. It is a great conference and I believe you’ve already got the news from it too.
Just a day before I came here, I’ve launched a website for this event:
http://wwdc2009.com
Here’s how it works:
- I create a new twitter account @2009wwdc
- I use this account to follow all the people who attend this conference, not the one who just talk about this
- I’ll follow people who will tweet the important things, especially the kind of people who don’t care NDA that much.
- Server will automatic pick up who I follow and collect all their tweets and stats
- Tweets are searchable on the site
- Will archive the site couple of weeks after the conference ends
If you want to know more about WWDC 2009, it is the site you should go.
Enjoy!

Just bought my ticket for WWDC 2009!

Today is the last day for early bird price (Saving $300). I got it in Canada for CAD $1699. Really not cheap.
Funny story, I thought I can buy it cheaper in US store, but it turns out even worse. The final price will have tax be added onto original price USD $1295, which will be USD $1414 in total. And USD $1414 is about CAD $1728 as of today.
Look forward to it!

Groups: Drag & Drop Contacts Management
Groups takes contacts group management to a totally different level. With a highly innovative user interface, you get to manage your contacts the iPhone way; drag them, drop them or trash them. As they say, “Drag & Drop is worth a thousand operations”… or something like that!
It is the most good looking app I’ve found on App Store so far. It makes the build-in ‘Contacts’ looks like a piece of …..

Half a year after Leopard has been released, we finally get an official Java SE 6 from Apple today!
Java for Mac OS X 10.5 Update 1 adds support for Java SE 6

Thanks Apple! Anyway…
As you can see from the description:
This update does not replace the existing installation of J2SE 5.0 or change the default version of Java.
So if you want to make Java SE 6 your default version of Java, there is one thing you need to do:
sudo ln….. OK, no command line this time.
Here is the right way to do:
- Launch /Applications/Utilities/Java/Java\ Preferences.app
- Drag “Java SE 6 (64-bit)” to the top of the “Java Application runtime Setting”
- Save

You could change Java Applet Runtime Version to J2SE 6 too, but please make sure you know you really need it.
Enjoy!

RubyGems just updated to version 1.1.0. Couple of the major changes are “Index updates are much faster now” and “only updates from a latest index by default”. So, time to update.
As Leopard already has Ruby and RubyGems preinstalled (Thanks, Apple!). So the default update way:
$ sudo gem update –system
will NOT work well.
Here is what you should do on Leopard 10.5.2:
$ sudo gem install rubygems-update
$ sudo update_rubygems
Enjoy!
