1Password for iPhone & iPad not Syncing

If you have 1Password 3 for iPhone or iPad and have been using DropBox to sync with your Macs, your logins, credit cards and profiles haven't been syncing recently.

Assembling the Eggbot – Lab548 Weekly 28

It takes less than an hour to put it together with great online instructions. We wondered: What could we possibly use it for? Does it even work? Once we hooked it up to an iMac we found the truth — It's awesome! You need X11 or, for Mac OS X 10.8, [...]
