My thanks to Orbicule for sponsoring this week’s DF RSS feed to promote Undercover, their amazing theft-recovery software for the Mac. If your Mac is stolen or lost, Undercover transmits the machine’s location, screenshots, and iSight pictures to the owner. They report an 86 percent recovery rate, and have a slew of recovery stories from happy Undercover users.

Undercover is available for $49 (no yearly fees), with discounts for households and students. Check out the screencasts on the Orbicule website to see how it works. And, a mobile version of Undercover for iPhone and iPad is available as well.

The Vanderbilt Republic Is Recruiting a CTO ★

My friends at the Vanderbilt Republic:

You know coding languages we haven’t heard of and have already recognized the potential we see in tomorrow’s content delivery systems. You bring serious experience to the table, you’ll never be done learning, and you will immediately know how to improve all our existing frameworks. You know that design is more than just a coat of paint.

This is a great opportunity to create beautiful, high-profile work.
