My name is Alex Ristevski, I’m a designer & animator. In my spare time I’m making a short film, it’s no big deal.Tumblr (3.0; @alexristevski)http://ristevski.me/<p>I just discovered you can use <a href="http://www.facebook.com/sitetour/chat.php">iChat to Facebook chat</a>. Here’s how you set it up: </p> <ol> <li>Add a new <i>Jabber</i> account.</li> <li>The <i>Account Name</i> should be your Facebook username followed by @chat.facebook.com</li> <li>Enter your Facebook password.</li> <li>Under <i>Server Options</i>, enter chat.facebook.com for the <i>Server</i> and 5222 for the <i>Port</i>.</li> </ol> That’s it. This is by far the best way I’ve used Facebook chat.http://ristevski.me/post/852545680http://ristevski.me/post/852545680Fri, 23 Jul 2010 21:37:00 -0700<img src="http://28.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_l60xlarwoP1qzaz62o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>My new iPhone wallpaper.

I feel retarded using a mouse. But sometimes when I’ve got nothing better to do, Ill use one.</p> <p>I’ve gotten used to Apple’s <strike>Mighty Mouse</strike>, I mean the <a href="http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB112LL/B">Apple Mouse</a>, it’s a good wired mouse, except for that dumb nipple. People who don’t like the feel of Apple’s mouses are holding them wrong.</p> <p>The <a href="http://www.apple.com/magicmouse/">Magic Mouse</a> is better, way better. Apple likes to make their old products look like crap.</p> <p><strong>What makes the Magic Mouse great is:</strong></p> <ol> <li>The seamless multi-touch top surface.</li> <li>Momentum scrolling is amazing, other mouses have scroll wheels?</li> <li>It’s simple. Who wants a million buttons on a mouse anyway, that’s what the keyboard is for.</li> </ol> <p>The only thing I don’t like is, it has batteries, because it’s wireless. Who wants batteries right? and Bluetooth is always a bit lame.</p> <p>Other things: Yes it physically clicks. The 2 finger swipe is a bit awkward at first, I haven’t used it much though.</p> <p>That’s all.</p>http://ristevski.me/post/232457101http://ristevski.me/post/232457101Tue, 03 Nov 2009 18:55:00 -0800<object width="400" height="325"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/IBgsLmDcL78&rel=0&egm=0&showinfo=0&fs=1"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/IBgsLmDcL78&rel=0&egm=0&showinfo=0&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="400" height="325" allowFullScreen="true" wmode="transparent"></embed></object><br/><br/><p>I could go for some Sin City “Breakfast Tacos” right about now.
