Just came across another annoying bug with the iPod touch and the latest firmware, 1.1.2. If you have two albums by two different artists named the same thing, eg ‘Greatest Hits’ - when you flip to view the track listings you see the tracks from the other artist even if you navigate via Music > Artists to select the first album.
Come on Apple, these bugs are simple queries that can’t be hard to fix!
Way back when Microsoft lost the battle with Eolas (2006) about active content we’ve had to endure the annoying ‘Click To Activate’ prompt around our flash apps/movies - fortunately tools like SWFobject have provided us better ways to load Flash and degrade gracefully but as Microsoft have now settled with Eolas then it looks like the ‘click to activate’ prompt will be a thing of the past with an upcoming refresh of Internet Explorer.

EDIT: From the IEBlog - Additionally this change will be made part of the next pre-release versions of Windows Vista SP1 and Windows XP SP3. After giving people enough time to prepare for this change, we’ll roll this behavior into the IE Cumulative Update in April 2008, and all customers who install the update will get the change.
It won’t be a regular thing like Andy J but this one caused a lot of laughter in the office so I thought I’d share it here…so here goes.
I have 2 dogs & I was buying a large bag of Winalot in Tesco and was standing in the queue at the till. A woman behind me asked if I had a dog.
On impulse, I told her that no, I was starting The Winalot Diet again, although I probably shouldn’t because I’d ended up in the hospital last time. However, not before I’d lost 50 pounds and then awakened in an intensive care ward with tubes coming out of most of my orifices and IVs in both arms.
I told her that it was essentially a perfect diet and the way that it works is to load your trouser pockets with Winalot nuggets and simply eat one or two every time you feel hungry. The food is nutritionally complete so I was going to try it again.
I have to mention here that practically everyone in the queue was by now enthralled with my story, particularly a guy who was behind her.
Horrified, she asked if I’d ended up in the hospital in that condition because I had been poisoned. I told her no, it was because I’d been sitting in the road licking my balls and a car hit me.
I thought one guy was going to have a heart attack he was laughing so hard as he staggered out the door.
Stupid cow……….why else would I buy dog food??
