John Resig uses this

Not seen the website or concept before but i really like it. Its a very good way of opening people up to new apps and whatnot. I'd like to see more tech celebrities on that site.

I too wish it was easier to write on the iPad, and that multi-tasking was an actual possibility.

I thought the most interesting part was his wish list at the end.

"I wish my MacBook had built-in 3G capabilities, I wish it was easier to type on my iPad, I wish Chrome was a better browser, I wish SABnzbd+ was smart enough to not re-download files, I wish my iPhone was faster, I wish I didn’t need a dongle to do a presentation with my MacBook, I wish Boxee didn’t crash so much, I wish my car accepted audio input, I wish Dropbox could backup my Google Docs and Mail."

Pretty good, but:

"I wish Chrome was a better browser"

John can you elaborate on this?

No, just like saying you like µTorrent doesn't implicate you for piracy.

"I wish my car accepted audio input."

I just used a Grom adapter to add bluetooth to my 1999 daily driver. It doesn't have whizzy features like voice dialing and A2DP audio quality is not excellent but, for podcasts, pop music, and phone calls, it's great.

Very interesting, I'll have to check into that! I use a Griffin FM transmitter right now, works OK, but has frequent problems with competing radio stations.
