(Originally titled “Piss and Moan: Stuff that Annoys me”)

This was intended to be a blog post. I decided to make it a page so I can keep adding stuff on to it and removing things as they get fixed.

Delicious Library: Announcing that DL2 (that adds tasty social functionality) would ship at the same time as Leopard. 3 months after Leopard shipped, there isn’t even a public beta.

Audible: Allows you to build wishlists…that you can’t share! More on this in a future post (hint: they blame the problem on Loomia).

Flickr: Does not have a customizable hosted version. I want photos.ericabaker.com to be a Flickr powered gallery. Also, Flickr, let me choose how I want my photos to be displayed. I’d prefer my photos to be displayed with white borders on a black background.

Everybody and their mom: Using PDF’s when HTML could present the same information more accessibly. Cut that out please, PDF’s are not meant for web presentation.

iTunes: When I plug my iPod into my computer, how about telling me how much battery juice it has?

JetBlue: I love you, I really do. However, the lack of power on your planes is annoying. Please get some planes built for long haul/cross country flights that have power outlets in some seats.

Twitter: Downtime much? Please also let me get my tracking updates in ways other than the standard notification procedures. Even better, let me manage my tracked items in my settings.

That’s all for now. Should I think of more stuff in the future, I’ll add it here.
