+We was robbed! Don't get me wrong, the iPhone is a [pretty spectacular device][1] and I'm glad it was announced now so I can start saving for the next six months, but this is a software blog and frankly we're a bit miffed -- we got nothing.
+Phone Schmone. Where's the Leopard previews? Release dates? Amazing additional features Jobs promised at the WWDC? Can a million rumors about retiring the Aqua interface really be wrong? *We just don't know*. 
+What about ILife '07? ITunes? IWork? Rumor has it that some Steveo's presentation used some Keynote features that aren't available to us mortals using the '05 version. It seems reasonable to assume that an iWork '07 must therefore exist, but nary a peep from the big man.
+Then of course there was my dream of an Aperture update shot to hell. Something about a spreadsheet app as well. Okay let's be honest I don't care about a spreadsheet app, but still the disappointment is palpable over here at Monkey Bites.
+We take some measure of consolation in remembering [this quote][2] (brought to our attention again by [Steven Johnson][3]) from Palm CEO Ed Colligan. When asked about the iPhone, Colligan: 
+>laughed off the idea that any company -- including the wildly popular Apple Computer -- could easily win customers in the finicky smart-phone sector. We've learned and struggled for a few years here figuring out how to make a decent phone," he said. <b>"PC guys are not going to just figure this out. They're not going to just walk in."</b>
+(emphasis mine)
+In the immortal words of Ace Venture: RRREHEHEALLY!

+One of the great charms of Django is the amount of work it does for you. It's literally possible to build complex applications that mirror the features of say, WordPress, in little more than a hundred lines of code.
+How the heck does Django do it? Well one of the great tools that Django puts at your disposal is something called generic views. Views are simply python functions that get called whenever a browsers requests a page. 
+There's a myriad of ways to storing and retrieve data in a web application, but date-based structures are pretty common. For instance, the url of this page contains something like '.../2007/01/...' which is a date-based archive.
+Rather than requiring that you write your own code every time you build a site that uses date based archives, the designers of Django included some generic views to handle common cases. In this case, were this site powered by Django, which regrettably it is not, but were it, we could pass the date from the url to django in one easy like of code:
+	(r'(?P<year>\d{4})/(?P<month>[a-z]{3})/$', 'django.views.generic.date_based.archive_month', data_dict),
+	
+Okay maybe it looks confusing, but it's really not. The first part is just a regular expression that captures the url and passes it to the generic view <code>archive_month</code>. The last bit is a python dictionary which would tell Django what data model to use for this page.
+Another common task web applications perform is displaying a list of content and to this end there is Django generic view for lists.
+Which brings us to today's tutorial. Generic views are great, but what if they don't exactly fit your application? Well, it's pretty easy to extend generic views and James Bennet [has a great tutorial on his blog The B-list][1] that runs through the basics extending, tweaking and otherwise making generic views do what you want.
+Mr. Bennet also has a number of other very useful and easy to follow django tutorials, try [digging through the rest of his Django archives][2].

+It's not all that sexy and it probably doesn't have a booth at MacWorld, but today's featured Mac software is a gem nonetheless. [Service Scrubber][1] is a donation-ware app from Peter Maurer (who also makes Butler the application launcher) that lets you regain control of the services menu.
+I used to ignore the services menu, that menu of universally accessible command shortcuts, because it's cluttered up with junk most of us never use. I'm sure there are people who use the ChineseTextConverter, but for my daily work it just gets in the way. Ditto for RealPlayer, Speech and many others.
+Service Scrubber is a simple app that lets you enable, disable and reorganize services and assign keyboard shortcuts. That's it. Remember: do one thing and do it well.
+The process is simple, as outlined on the Service Scrubber site:
+*	Select a service provider (i.e., an application or a service package) to edit its services only.
+*	Click on a checkbox to enable/disable the corresponding service(s).
+*	Click on an [i] button to edit a service's features.
+*	Click on a [left arrow] button to revert a service provider to its original state.
+*	Once you're done tweaking your services, click the [Save] button to save your changes. Be prepared to authenticate as an administrator.
+Service Scrubber is free, though if you like it you could always consider donating.
