Super slick explanation and interactive tutorial of the SVG file format.
I just learned about this utility. It's super cool and I bet I could do something useful with it that makes my life marginally better.

Very interesting techincal article on what design decisions mean that Android cannot be as smooth as iOS.
Apple's CEO Steve Jobs on why Adobe's Flash is not allowed to run on iPhone, iPod, nor iPad. Nothing new here, but interesting to read directly from the source.
I wrote a little Automator Script, really nothing special, to dismiss the Core Location dialog automatically when you run Will Entriken's CoreLocationCLI tool. I wrote this as part of my efforts to find a stolen MacBook. He now posted it on the product page. Cool!
