Ever had that moment where someone asks you how to connect a Mac to a TV? It's not the simple answer you hope. There's about 8 different adapters which may or may not be needed, as well as several cables, all depending on what sort of Mac and what sort of TV you want to connect them to.

To keep my keen PHP skills in use, I made a little web app to produce a list of what you need. Try it out here - http://theducks.org/tvconnect

I has an iPod.

To promote the University at WWDC, I've managed to score a 30Gb Video iPod to take away. Flying Qantas doesn't thrill me with anticipation. Their in-flight entertainment sucked a fair bit last I flew international with them. I wanted a Video iPod to help me pass the time, but I didn't want to buy one, so I talked to some people, and hey presto, two of the ones for the student iPod project appeared for me and my co-worker Mark to take with us.

Mmm shiny.
