Core Animation + Photoshop/GIMP

So, I was thinking about the GIMP on leopard, and I thought about Core Animation and Core Animation being a layer-based animation system. What came to me was a very brilliant thought: Core Animation acellerated image editing. If I were designing this system I would use Core Graphics (specifically Core Image) to implement the layers. I find this interesting because one could then implement something like Cover Flow for the layers. The way I thought of it a user would press a button and then the layers would rearrange themselves into something like Cover Flow. I might do some mock-ups later, but for now it is just an idea.

Amazing things you can do with an iPhone and a Bluetooth Mac

Just because the iPhone does not have any bluetooth services enabled does not mean that you cannot do anything fun with bluetooth and your Mac! I downloaded a program called proximity to enable locking my computer when my iPhone moves out of bluetooth range. To accomplish this I followed the directions here to make applescripts that lock and unlock your screen.

Now I can officially say that my iPhone and my Mac get separation anxiety.
