I’ve been very frustrated trying to disable Acrobat’s Outlook plugin (toolbars, additional menu) and since google found no solution I’m posting what worked for me.
- Find the location of your PDFMOutlook.dll library. This will be presumably “C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 9.0\PDFMaker\Mail\Outlook\”.
- Unregister the DLL from the system–run the following command:
regsvr32 /u "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 9.0\
PDFMaker\Mail\Outlook\PDFMOutlook.dll"
- Rename the file to “PDFMOutlook.dll.old” for instance
- Restart your now clean Outlook.

Adobe Media Encoder has a preset for YouTube which encodes to the typical and should I say traditional 320 x 240 pixels. YouTube has since moved into the “HD” category (no, nothing like Vimeo just yet) and supports a bit higher quality uploads. Uploads are limited to 10 minutes, file size limit is not set. H.264 MP4 is a good codec format to use (x.264 will do), but others are just as well supported.
And now for the promised ideal dimensions (as of today) and according to my testing:
640 x 360 px
Keywords: resolution, size, pixels, dimensions, width, height, youtube, upload, optimal, ideal, encode, encoded, best, how-to, how to, hd, 720, 720p
Gmail reserves some words e.g. “voicemail”, which cannot be used to name users’ custom labels. They actually may internally use these labels to indentify such emails, because searching for “label:voicemail” will, in fact, list all emails that contain a voicemail.
Keywords: voicemail, gmail, tags, label, labels, reserved, allowed, name, naming, search, searching, attachment

Just thought I’d share my accidental finding out of a few image dimensions in my E61 (haven’t found any information on this on the net, yet). Notice that all image thumbnails in the cache found in the device use either 54×54 or 47×40 pixels.

Surely I’m a big fan of iTunes and was among the first to support it by purchases. As an audiophile I’m not buying everything there, since it does use compression after all and it does have DRM applied.
Check out Linn Records. They offer lossless and DRM free music. I’ll be returning there frequently it seems.

Multi-billion dollar company creates their ‘blackberry killer’, Nokia E61 business phone/PDA hybrid. It builds upon decades of EPOC/Symbian OS development and probably many millions of R&D on this particular model. Yet the phone started collecting dust particles under the screen in merely a week’s time of business (carrying in the suite pocket) use. Infuriating!
E61 is a potential bear in today’s fast expanding mobile market. Calling a product of this potential ‘E61′ throws me off the chair for a start. How about calling iPod something like “Apple Xi-M145″?
Nokia is not your backyard garage, where a group of geeks are hacking for fun. It’s rather a mammoth with over 60,000 employees reaching EUR 9 813 million in net sales just in the last quarter (EUR 1 140 million net profit). There have to be a few dollars left to create a dust-resistant screen?!?
–end of rant–
Nokia’s vision, Nokia as a company.

Mmmm… Anyone willing to sponsor a new “powermac”?

Unpleasant when under time pressure and deadlines hours away one has to deal with messages like this one.
Otherwise, InDesign is just lovely!

Staying competitive in design with just 1GB of RAM on board, and a 32MB graphics card can get difficult at times.

Kona always had a special place in my heart. Cr-Mo is no longer used, but what the heck. Joe Murray is with Voodoo I hear. Below are some specs of the Cinder Cone, my favorite ever!
