Cool OSX Terminal Trick

Just found out via TUAW that you can run a quick command in the Terminal to create a banner-style printout saying whatever you want.  Rarely useful, but still pretty cool!

Today, I love Apple!

So, normally I only sync my iPod when there’s a new podcast I want to throw on there. But today, as I was getting ready, I started listening to TWiT. By the time I went to go meet Jenn for lunch, I wasn’t finished, so I synced it onto my iPod to finish listening. So maybe this shouldn’t be exciting, but it sync’ed over to the iPod the place where I was in the podcast. When I went to pick up the TWiT episode and listen to it, after having carefully noted where in the audio I needed to scroll to pick up where I’d left off, the iPod was already there. It knew where I was in the podcast from my computer.

Simple thing, perfectly obvious, but until today I never knew this was part of the package. Yet another plus on the “little things” for Apple!
