Pretty interesting post from Photoshop's senior product manager about the betas of CS4 apps, which I'm just starting to kick the tires of, multiple-document-interface (single-window) apps, and whether or not they're Mac-like.

Speaking of Andy Baio, this isn't as nice as the mobile version of Upcoming on Leaflets, but if you want to get a quick look at movies, concerts, and gallery showings currently going on in and around Los Angeles, try LA Weekly Go Mobile, my skunkworks repackaging of LA Weekly's listings.
