Apple released 2.0.2 firmware for the iPhone a couple of days ago with cryptic release notes indicating “bug fixes.” By yesterday afternoon, however, it seemed the company may be playing whack-a-mole with some issues, including widely …

I wanted to create a text note that I could save on my iPhone home screen that contained my contact details in case my iPhone was lost and whoever found it was honest enough to try and return it to me. I wanted this note to be accessible regardless of Internet access, and I didn’t want to muck up my wallpaper with this info.

This isn’t a fool-proof method to make sure that whoever finds your phone knows who it belongs to, but it is better than nothing. All you do is create a webpage with your “if found” details, making sure that the page can be viewed offline, and saving the page as a bookmark on your home screen.

The fish shell is a modern command-line shell that aims to be more discoverable and less beholden to tradition than other shells like bash and csh.

Unfortunately, this shell does not ship with Mac OS X, so you’ll need to do some work to install it.

First, download and install MacPorts. This will provide a Terminal command, port, that you can run to download packages. If you prefer a nice GUI for this, though, I recommend downloading and installing Porticus as well.

If you’re using plain old port, type port install fish at the command line. If you’re using Porticus (or another MacPorts GUI), search for “fish” in “All Packages” and click the Install toolb…
