It’s gotta be tough being a chat program for the Mac. Sure, Adium kicks ass and there are a few others too, but iChat is already built into the OS. Most people just log in there and away they go. No fancy sign up name, no special e-mail account, just good to go from the…
Yesterday Apple released a security update for iLife ’08 called iLife Support 8.3.1. The update reportedly improves the stability of the suite, and updates a number of other minor issues. This is only for user who are still using Tiger. To update all you’ll need to do is check System Preferences under the Apple logo…
There is lots and lots of talk about this piece in the New York Times yesterday, and it came up as the topic of conversation between myself and my father. A brief word about dad: He’s a Microsoft-certified programmer who owns his own company and has used Windows products since day 1. That said, he…
Almost two years ago, I purchased a TomTom GPS unit for my car and it turned out to be one of the best decisions I ever made. I was getting ready to go on a business trip to Claremore, Oklahoma (ever been there? No? Don’t.), and I knew that without some kind of help, I…
We’ve got another rumor going here, and this one is a doozy. The folks at Boy Genius Report tend to have their rumors straight, and this time, they’ve got Apple news. I’ll let them explain the good stuff. One of our reliable Apple sources has just filled us in on some of the company’s iTunes…
Thanks to a link from LifeHacker, I checked out Home and Away yesterday evening. This freeware application automatically mounts network volumes, launches applications, and opens files based on what network you’re connected to. That’s a pretty awesome feature for those of you that carry your Macbooks around with you everywhere you go. For example, let’s…
Today HP announced its competitor to the iPad called the TouchPad. While the TouchPad will give Android tablets a run for their money, I can’t help but notice where HP got its design inspiration.
The next generation of Macs, particularly the MacBook and iMac are set to receive the newest line of Intel CPUs and chipsets dubbed Sandybridge. The new CPU architecture would bring increased power efficiency and faster clock speeds to any Macs that utilize Intel’s Core i5 and i7 CPUs. Intel’s recall of Sandybridge parts could delays…
Although I’ve never been diagnosed with it, I think I may be a little bit ADD. There are many times throughout the day that I’ll want to do something, but then I’ll get distracted by one thing or another. It’s pretty frustrating, frankly, and leads me to working many a late night trying to finish…
One of my greatest childhood frustrations was the Etch a Sketch. No matter how hard I tried, I never was able to create a cool design or picture with the thing, and it drove me nuts. Eventually, I hucked it across the room in frustration and stormed off. Inevitably, a week or so later I’d…
Oh, Sharper Image, how I love thee. I remember when I was just barely old enough to drive, how I’d take the car down to the Biltmore fashion center just to see those new gadgets that you had on the shelves. “Ooh, an electric razor with foam dispenser! If only I could shave!” I would…
The film Wall-E opened this weekend, and is filled with Easter Eggs from Pixar and related companies, like Apple.
