Want a Gmail account, just ask, I'll send you an invite.

It seems as though there was something up with iTune 5, that Apple have released an update to iTunes. The update is available from http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/ . It seems as though Apple is NOT being explicit on what has changed between versions 5 and 5.0.1.

City Centre Bus service to be axed to make way for the Trams

According to the Evening News - End of the line for bus routes once trams start to run in city . Bus companies are going to have to cut the bus services to the city centre. If the right routes get cut then it won't be a bad thing as the current probem with the city centre is that there are far too many buses there. So many they are holding each other up! If this goes ahead I just hope that the buses that get taken off from the city centre will be put on to the routes avoiding the city centre!

Yahoo Mail

Unfortunately the new Yahoo Mail service that makes webmail feel like your at you desktop is only available to those who have a @yahoo.com address. See Yahoo's Beta Signup page.

It's a real shame I only have a @yahoo.co.uk address, I was looking forward to trying it out.

Quicktime 7

It seems as though the release of Quicktime 7 for Windows has been overshaddowed by the releases of the iPhone, iPod Nano and iTunes 5.

iPod Nano out, iTunes 5 out as well!

Apple have just released a new iPod, the iPod Nano.

It seems to be simply a larger shuffle with a colour display.

There also seems to be a new version of iTunes too according to the page of about the iPod Nano.

The new iTunes features a new interface similar to Apple's Mail in Tiger.

Other features include:

• Streamlined Search
• Album Groups, similar to calendar groups
• Smart Shuffle
• Parental Controls
• Sync with Outlook
• Sync with Motorola Phone.
