Here’s some of the stuff I found interesting today.

Appleinsider has an article about Apple improving MobileMe syncing in 10.5.6. There isn’t much detail but I’m sure anyone who uses MobileMe will appreciate the touch.

Engadget HD has one of their typical flame baiting articles asking which is better as a Media Centre: A PS3 or an XBOX360 ? What’s interesting about the article is the comments. Normally the hysteria of xbox fans would put the worst mac fanboy to shame, but the conversation is surprisingly even handed. Personally I haven’t turned my xbox 360 on in months. I think the PS3 is a far superior product. The fact that Microsoft sees fit to charge you for their online service and then push ads for it onto the console’s desktop to me is a bloody disgrace.

Incidentally, speaking of the Playstation, LittleBigPlanet, really is the best game I have ever played. I’ll try and put together a review soon, but if you have a PS3 you have to get this game.

An interesting blog post describing how best to set up a Drobo for time machine backups. There are some more suggestions (and in my opinion better solutions) in the comments.

Lego looses it’s trademark battle to protect the copyright on it’s iconic brick. I don’t know how the Judge came to this conclusion. I hope Lego continues to fight on this.

I suppose this had to happen sometime.
