Modern Nerd: Solved: Gmail, iPad, iPhone, and multiple from addresses

One caveat has been that Mail on the iPhone and iPad won’t let…
Steve Jobs at D8
Apple CEO Steve Jobs’ appearance at D: All Things Digital last night is the talk of everywhere today.
The first videos captured during last nights discussions are available now, and here are some of the highlights for your delectation and delight. (Sorry the clips are in Flash, blame All Things Digital).
1. On Gizmodo and the iPhone theft
Jobs is quite upset about the whole thing and unwilling to “let it slide”, he feels the website tried to “extort” Apple.
2. Jobs on Flash and other obsolete tech
Notice he comes out to the sound of ‘Got to Get you into my Life’ by The Beatles…
3. Jobs on Google and the origins of the iPad
Guess what — Apple was working on the iPad when it invented a touch interface Jobs immediately thought should be used in a phone, so the iPhone was born.
4. Jobs on AT&T
They had faith in us, Jobs says, as AT&T raise rates. Nice onE AT&T.
5. Jobs on TV
Way it is the industry needs to change for technological solutions to really make a difference, Jobs explains. ((Next step, changes the industry, no doubt).
6. Jobs on Google and Android
So he woke up one morning and his friendly fellow board member, Eric Schmidt of Google, had become his competitor. Fortunately it hasn’t affected Steve’s sex life. We wonder what he’s planning…
7. Jobs explains the iAds restrictions
Jobs did make a point of saying that he will allow other ad networks besides Apple’s own iAds platform on his iPads and iPhones. And he said that he would allow outside advertisers to track their ads’ performance.
Jobs also notes Flurry’s big mistake — to gather and then publish data which showed the company was testing iPad prototypes…
9gag:
It’s okay to doubt yourself, it’s okay to feel down; just never give up.

Beautiful. If there’s one song that’s been providing a quick headtrip away from all the maelstrom of the last week, it’s the soulful, spacious rolling bass of ‘CMYK’ by James Blake. Taken from the EP of the same name released at the end of the month on R&S Records, it features samples from Kelis’ ‘Caught Out There’ and Aalyiah’s ‘Are You That Somebody?’. Watch out for this chap big time.
