I’ve been waxing poetic on my Twitterstream about my Apple TV’s new lease on life, thanks to the Boxee Beta and a few related hacks. A few friends have asked what exactly I did, so I thought I’d put the process together here.
I’m a Boxee beta tester, but you too should be able to get [...]
About a month ago I posted about having trouble with Boxee after I upgraded to the latest rolled out version. I was unable to play files that it had played before with ease–it kept crashing the software and rebooting my Apple TV.

It was a long wait, [...]
After almost two full days with the new iPhone 3.0 software, there are a handful of things that stand out for me as clearly AWESOME…things I wish had been a part of the iPhone OS since the beginning (or at least the introduction of the iPhone 3G).
