A Brand New Interstate
TL;DR: Sign up for the new Interstate BETA at http://interstateapp.com/beta/.
After months of radio silence from us here at Interstate, we’re very happy to finally announce the BETA of a brand new Interstate.
We decided to build a brand new Interstate simply because the product which we have today is very different to what it was when we first launched. The first release of Interstate was a...

Neil deGrasse Tyson's iPhone Story
I was watching the interview with Neil deGrasse Tyson on On The Verge where he was asked about his life as a meme and his wishes for NASA. However the interview then moved onto gadgets and Tyson is a particular fan of Apple products and says his MacBook Pro is a part of him, not just a computer. He then told the story of how he first bought the iPhone, I’ve tried to transcribe it as best...

I'm a Steve Jobs fanboy...
As many of you know today (March 7th) they announced the 3rd generation iPad with a couple of hardware updates and some sleek new applications. Nothing that impressed me but I’ve not been impressed nor expected to be impressed since the original iPad. As a product the iPad is a sidekick to my iPhone and Mac. It only comes into its own when I have an 11 hour flight ahead of me.
What I...

Keeping Windows In Position Across Displays On Mac
For a while now I’ve had the problem of rearranging my application windows whenever I connected or disconnected my MacBook to a display. I first had it with my 15” MacBook Pro to a 24” Cinema Display back in 2010 and now have run into the same problem after getting a 13” MacBook Air and the 27” Cinema Display.
For a while I just used window snapping or arranging...

Jesse Morris
I’ll be damned! It turns out there was a street performer in San Francisco who went by the name of Jesse Morris. I’m someone who respects the street performer, if I hear a tune I like I will most definitely drop in a dollar or two. Few have ever made me stand and watch however it seems as though Jesse Morris would have.
Unfortunately though I’ll never get the chance to watch him...

Telling Scum They're Scum
I had a rather odd situation when I was visiting family and friends at the end of July. Every year my hometown, Dufftown, throws the Dufftown Highland Games which usually culminates with various pipe bands playing in the centre of the town. I was there as usual watching my two cousins who are part of the band, drum past.
I had to search through the crowd to find my parents who were speaking to a...

Blackening, an Odd Tradition
By now most of you will know I’m Scottish, if you didn’t already know then you know now. As a Scot I’m accustomed to our rather strange but fun-loving traditions. I’ll tell you about one which seems to have gone unnoticed in the wider world and maybe for good reason; Blackening.
Don’t worry, it’s not a racial tradition as much as it sounds like it (for once)....
