RickrollDB: never get rickroll'd again

Have you ever clicked what appears to be an awesome link and received a rendition of Rick Astley’s hit single, “Never Gonna Give You Up” instead? You, sir, have been rickrolled.

Don’t know what I’m talking about? Click here:

Presenting the #1 weapon in the war on rickrolls: the Rickroll Database

• install Firefox and the AdBlock Plus extension, which blocks ads, but not rickrolls
• subscribe to the Rickroll blacklist
• no more rickrolls for you my friend

There’s also simple user vetting of the roll-itude of blacklisted URLs; confirm or dispute entries for mad props & fame

Filemarks: save files to your iPhone

Got a shiny new iPhone and frustrated by how difficult Apple makes it to put high-res photos, PDFs, and other files on it? Download Filemark Maker, a tiny app that makes it easy to generate bookmarks with the data stored inside (known as DataURLs).

Drop a file on the app, bookmark the generated link, sync with your iPhone, and enjoy offline files, like subway maps and eBooks.

Hacked together at Jelly this week in conjunction with Josh and Dave from Insanely Great Tees (which are, in fact, pretty insanely great)
