In this episode I show you how to:

1. Utilize Data Detectors in Apple Mail (for Address Book Entries)
2. Activate Data Detectors in iChat via the Command Line
3. Run shell scripts via Quicksilver

Here we go!

To utilize data detectors all you need to do is run your mouse cursor over any phone number, address, email, date, or time and a dotted rectangular outline will appear with a drop down arrow. Simply click on the drop down arrow and you will be presented with options such as:

• Create New Contact
• Add to Existing Contact
• Create New iCal Event
• etc. etc.

To enable this functionality in iChat you must run the following shell script:

defaults write com.apple.iChat EnableDataDetectors 1

You can do this several ways:

1. In Terminal : Open Terminal (Applications/Utilities/Terminal.app) and type the command followed by ⌅ (Enter)
2. Launch Quicksilver (⌃spacebar) enter text entry mode (.) and then type in the command. Once completed hit ⇥(tab) and then type R-U-N. Select Run this command in shell and hit enter. Presto chango you are ready to go!

If you are anything like me, one of the most annoying features, or lack of features, in the iPhone is the fact that there is no copy and paste. This is a great little mockup of how copy and paste might work on the iPhone. Knowing Apple they will come up with something else, lets just hope it is sooner than later.

The Sage just got married and I am going on my Honeymoon. Why is this relavent? Well, this means that there will not be a podcast for a couple of weeks. Enjoy your summer!

I am often asked why I prefer Safari to Firefox, Omniweb, or any of the other wonderful browsers for OS X. The answer is easy for me. Safari is one, if not the only, web browser that has color management. It kills me when I spend hours on a graphic only to find that it looks completely different than I had intended when rendered by every browser accept Safari.

There are many features that I love about Safari. There are also many that are lacking. But, when all is said and done there is nothing more valuable than color management.

Wow what a way to kick off CS3. It appears that Adobe is having some technical difficulties. The Sage thinks they should try using the cinema display and see if that will work! So far CS3 looks awesome, if only we could continue with the presentation.
