From the award-winning documentary, “Playing For Change: Peace Through Music”, comes the first of many “songs around the world” being released independently. Featured is a cover of the Ben E. King classic by musicians around the world adding their part to the song as it travelled the globe.

This cover of Stand By Me was recorded by completely unknown artists in a street virtual studio all around the world. The producers took the mix from all through Europe, Africa, and South America, adding new tracks with multiple instruments and vocals that were assembled in the final version you are seeing in this video. All done with a simple laptop and some microphones.

While using Windows if you try to close a document after making some changes to it the dialog box that appears shows a error message of this kind:

You’ve to read the whole message to be able to answer. Seems normal, right?

Now notice the same kind of Dialog Box in Mac OS X:

So, what’s the difference?

The answer is the use of verbs in labels (‘Save, Don’t Save’ instead of ‘Yes, No’). You wouldn’t even need to read the message to understand what the options are and which action to perform. All the information that a user needs to be able to make a decision is contained in the button labels .

It’s just like to listen to 4th Voicemail you’ve to go to all 3 of them above it. Apple eliminated that pain by introducing Visual Voicemail. So why not try something with arranging the apps.

I thought it would be helpful if somehow Apple implements Spaces in iPhone, just like it did in Leopard.

Here’s a mockup of how it’ll look like… please read through and click ‘Next >’ to proceed further.

The Icon is designed to show a connected Windows Machine and the screen of which displays a version of the famous “Blue Screen of Death”.

I just loved the Apple’s subtle humor…

If you’re a PC, you may be unfamiliar with The Dock, the bar of icons that sits at the bottom or side of a Mac and provides easy access to Apple applications. But don’t count on it becoming a standard on the PC.

Nearly nine years after filing for a patent on the Dock in OS X, it’s finally been awarded to Apple. Steve Jobs is listed as one of its three inventors. Besides the general idea of a userbar with “a plurality of item representations” that consolidates features like “launching and managing running applications,” the patent focuses particularly on the Dock’s magnification feature that makes icons bigger as you sweep by them with a cursor.
