Jon Abrams' Blog - iOS “Open in Chrome” Bookmarklet: iOS “Open in Chrome” Bookmarklet
Today Google released Chrome for iOS (for free).

Already it’s pretty clear that it’s a much better browser than iOS’s default Safari browser. Unfortunately, even if you want to use Chrome, clicking a link in any other iOS app will launch Safari.

My current workaround is this bit of javascript that will launch the current page in Chrome. Just copy and paste it into a bookmark in Safari, then if you ever find yourself in Safari, but would rather be in Chrome, tap the bookmark and voila! You’re now in Chrome but on the same page!

javascript:location.href="googlechrome" location.href.substring(4);

Install instructions:

Copy the bit of code up there.
Bookmark this page.
Open the Safari bookmarks, click “edit”, and edit the new bookmark.
Rename it to “Open in Chrome” or something like that.
Delete the URL that’s there and paste in the above code.

miniLock — File encryption software that does more with less

miniLock — File encryption software that does more with less: miniLock makes encrypting files and sharing them with friends easy. It's a modern standard for file encryption.
Easy to use
miniLock uses your email and secret passphrase to generate a miniLock ID. miniLock IDs are small and easy to share online — anyone can use your ID to encrypt files to you, and you can encrypt files to friends using their miniLock IDs.

Modern
Enter your miniLock passphrase on any computer, and you'll get access to your miniLock ID. No key storage or management — just a single passphrase to access your miniLock identity anywhere. miniLock uses modern cryptographic primitives to accomplish this securely.

Proven cryptography
miniLock is audited, peer-reviewed software. It's developed by experts, using proven cryptographic standards and under the scrutiny of the open source cryptography community.
