Trivia: The text on the TextEdit icon

I think I read this awhile ago on MacRumors. Anyways, I thought it's a pretty interesting trivia to past along.

Turns out that if you enlarge the icon of TextEdit on your Mac, you will find the narration text to the famous Think Different commercial.

A magical iPhone stand

I picked up this mobile phone stand at a Disney Store in Japan. Basically it has this anti-slippery surface that secures the phone. It's like magic. And best of all, it's about the same size as the iPhone. Only time will tell how long the surface can hold my iPhone. Pics below:

The stand itself.

Look, Mickey is holding my iPhone!

And one more shot of the iPhone on the stand. Magical, isn't it?

Turn your iPhone into a DSLR

Being tied up with work. Hopefully I can get some more posts up on a regular basis.

Anyways, here's something cool to share. The Japanese company Gizmon has two lens that you can attach to your iPhone. One is the fish-eye (about 40-50 USD), and the other is the wide & macro (about 20-30 USD).

The wide & macro lens is actually two lens attached together. When two lens are together, it is wide angle. Take off the wide angle lens attachment, it becomes macro.

The lens are mounted with a magnet to a mount that you tape to your iPhone. If you don't want to tape directly, you can always tape the mount to an external case.

Pair these together with some camera apps, and you can do some fun photography with your iPhone.
