It has all happened to us before, negative comments. Most of these nasty comments happen on places where the less formal audience meet, people who don’t have the intention of actually enjoying your show. Geoff Smith (RingtoneFeeder and musician) created this song (along with Jonathan Davis as the cinematographer) to all let us know its no big deal.
I hope you pass this along to your friends.
This song is part of Geoff’s new album availible here.
We are back a few days early this week with a new Mac News Weekly. I am going on a road-trip all over the southern United States for two weeks. I will be blogging my experience at blog.macnewsweekly.com.
Last week we reported that Steve Jobs may be having health problems. This week, Steve actually conacted Joe Nocera over at the New York Times to let him know what’s up with is well-being.
The websites 9to5 Mac and Computerworld are reporting that they have a source inside Apple working on the new Macbooks. Among other things, it will be much thinner.
Rapper and producer Dr. Dre has released new headphones made by Monster. They look amazing!
Adobe releases a 64-bit version of Lightroom for Mac.
After about a month of iPhone and MobileMe goodness, we are finally back with news!
I start off with discussing Apple’s 3rd quarter results. Nearly 2.5 million Macs 717,000 iPhones, and 11 million iPods were shipped in this quarter alone.
900 apps are available for download in the App Store, and nearly 25 million have been downloaded so far. Also, 1 million 3G iPhone were in the first weekend of sales.
Sometime during the results, CFO Peter Oppenhimer stated that Apple will come out with a new-product shortly with “technologies and features that others can’t match”.
This is an episode that didn’t turn out exactly the way that I expected. The lighting was bad in some parts, and voice-overs don’t always fit, but it is an overall good episode.
MobileMe was launched last week, but not after a rocky start. They were supposed to launch on the early morning of July, 9th, but for some most users, it didn’t even work for at least 24 hours after that!
If you try to explain MobileMe to someone, you would probably end up saying something along the lines of “Exchange for the rest of us”. But what does that really mean? It means that your digital life is kept up to sync so you don’t have to sync.
In today’s episode, I explain how I use MobileMe to make my life easier. Feel free to elaborate in the comments.
