  Should I reinstall OSX?

  Hold down option to select a boot drive. Or 'C' to boot from optical drive, I think it stood for 'CD' back in the day when DVD drives weren't common yet...

  Does it only crash when you plug in your phone, or when you do other things too? Another thing to check is your RAM.

   Reinstalls are pretty simple, but it just takes some time. So it's nice to know for sure it will fix the problem before you do it.

  Best Feed Reader for Mac

  NewsFire is great (shareware), Vienna is very nice freeware reader.

  I like RSS apps better, the interfaces are better and can allow for command-key shortcuts, etc.

  The behavior of clicking on a RSS link in browser and having your RSS automatically pick it up is a function of your browser actually. With Firefox, I have NewsFire selected to open up with RSS links.

  Browser Extension

  I would love to see the Firefox extension available again. I guess the app probably does the same thing and more, but installing a FF plugin seems less intrusive.

   I literally just joined the beta so am right now still figuring out what tangler is/does. I think a FF plugin encourages people to use tangler alongside their web surfing. On another topic someone mentioned linking digg and tangler together. But you don't have to link anything, if someone simply reads a digg page and can also use tangler with other people on the page or whatever.

  iPhone

  Thanks for the clip, some nice details.

  1. Keynote audience will cheer for absolutely anything Jobs says- "It scrolls". (wild applause)

  2. I wonder if Bill Gates or other big time CEO's also love the Red Hot Chili Peppers

  3. I will never pay for a ringtone. Making them for my RAZR in iTunes is a piece of cake, I imagine the same will be true for iPhone.
