Cool article from November about Buck O'Neill, a trailblazing black baseball player.

A competing app to AirPhones, with the advantage of Rogue Amoeba's Mac developer heritage and cred.

Interesting application. I think I may check this out. Basically lets you use an iPhone as a receiver that turns any headphones into wireless headphones for music from your computer.

Some photos showing that the corporate fans either didn't buy the $$$ Yankees tickets, or they aren't showing up to use their tickets. I'd be interested ot hear what Borders has to say after his trip to the new Stadium.

An essay on Twitter.

Another cool Wired story.

Nice overview of some of the methods out there for finding new tunes.
