Free Google Phone Calls
This just popped up when I logged into gmail:
US and Canada are free to call, and the international rates are relatively low, but limited to Mexico, France and the UK outside of the US and Canada.
Hi. My name is Alex Wiltschko.
This is my internet log.

New app
Made a website for an app I've been tinkering with off-and-on through the summer.

Pretty pop-up notifications for the iPhone
While working on an update to Backtrack, I found I needed some non-interactive pop-up windows, just to let the user know what the heck is going on sometimes.
So, I whipped a little something up. You can download the source at Github.
After you add two source files, and two images to your app, getting a notification up is simple as:
AWNotification *notification = [[AWNotification alloc] initWithNotificationStyle:AWNotificationStyleRoundedRect];
notification.message = @"Let's do this...";
[notification show];
And tearing it down later is just as easy:
[notification hideWithSuccessMessage:@"We did it!"];
[notification release];
