While watching “The Colbert Report” last night, I was greeted by an unexpected surprise. Mr. Colbert did an entire show on me! I grabbed a couple of the choice moments and compiled them into a quick clip for your viewing pleasure. Enjoy…

I never thought my last name would be used for anything more than a crappy joke. (i.e. “Everyone likes Brent cuz he’s a real … fungi”) But apparently, Mr. Colbert just can’t get enough of me. Do you blame him? I guess I was wrong. Now Stephen, I have been wrong before, but only once, my friend, and I was sleeping at the time so it doesn’t even really count.

Thank you sir for the kind words, I’m a HUGE fan of your “little show” as well.

If you haven’t fallen love with webclips for your iPhone yet, this little hack might just push you over the edge (well, maybe not but it’s something anyway). I’ll bet you were wondering if there was a way to put a icon on your home screen that quick dials a number for you. Well, look no further! Your answer is right here and it just might save your life! Here’s a quick tutorial on how to put a speed dial icon on your (v. 1.1.3) iPhone. [Continued]

I stumbled across a cool little tip over at SilverMac yesterday and I found it to be a great opportunity to try out on my first screencast here on iBAM. Hopefully this works and who knows, maybe (if you didn’t know about it already) you’ll find the tip useful too! We’ll see…

Ok… So, I got quite a lot of pressure today to open a CafePress Store after posting Cadie’s onesie pics. So, I took my sheets of iron-on’s and the art I had made for the iBAM Tees and uploaded the whole sha-bang to CP for anyone to posses. That said, if you want one of Cadie’s onesies, a semi-spendy front only printed tee or a pretty cool mug, swing by and do your worst. I’ll try to add more stuff as I think of it (or as you suggest it). All proceeds will go to help out here at iBAM. Just remember that if you buy something, please send me a link to a pic of you and/or your iBAM swag. I really geek out over that stuff! Rock on!

Our pal James comes back with another “Ask iBAM” question for the masses. This time it’s about web design Mac apps. This should be a good hearty conversation starter. There’s a ton of apps out there and everyone has their fav’s. What’s your weapon of choice? Here’s James’ question:

Got another question for you and the iBAM readers. As I sent in earlier I am preparing to make the switch to a mac with a new 24″ iMac. I was mainly waiting for MacWorld just in case anything minor was announced for the iMac. I am a freelance web designer and developer right now and have been browsing apps for the Mac for what I do. I’m wanting to get the opinions of your readers on which ones would be the best to get. I’m not used to anything special as now I use Notepad++ for all coding and FileZilla for ftp. Some of the apps I’m currently looking at include CSSEdit, Transmit, Coda and YummyFTP. What are your opinions on these? Would Coda be the best route with the its editor and transmit or does CSSEdit have an advantage? Basically looking for the word of fellow web designers on what you like about each or prefer between them. I also used to do freelance video editing in the past but time hasn’t allowed me to in awhile but plan to get back into it. What apps are recommended or what apps do you guys use? Or is Final Cut the best/only choice? Thanks for the help. [Continued]
