2011
Farewell 2011, you were an awesome year. I got lots accomplished, lost a whole bunch of weight, ran a little over 500 miles and got a start on a project that I look forward to building in 2012 and beyond. Here’s some lessons I learned this year:
- Rails is awesome. I will definitely spend more time in 2012 to learn it a bit more.
- Perfection makes a huge difference.
- Losing weight isn’t really as hard as people make it seem. Don’t eat as much and exercise more. Simple equation.
- How to really, really focus on things.
- Lose another 10 pounds (I really, really want to see what I’ll look like @ 150. Even if I don’t keep it.)
- Gain some muscle
- Climb a mountain
- Launch all my pending iPhone apps
-
How to: Use ARC with libraries that don’t support ARC
-
How to: Hide Newsstand folder in iOS5
-
Hide apps in Launchpad
Hide individual apps or whole folders in Launchpad with this free to use, yet awesome preference pane.

Safari Omnibar
Even though I love Chrome, the only reason I really use it over Safari is because of the Omnibar; being able to type a search in the address bar just makes sense. While browsing Github today, I found a plugin that allows for the Safari address bar to behave somewhat like Chrome’s Omnibar. It allows you to make searches just like Chrome, but it won’t let you search specific websites - at least not yet.
It’s still totally awesome and makes Safari that much better. Download it, run the installer and restart Safari. It even hides the search box!
