 In This Episode:

I am back from my warm vacation on the beach where I was greeted back home by nearly a foot of snow. I am going away in the end of March to Colorado (where it is very snowy), so this was a test of sorts to see if we can actually produce outside. I first start off with the news that iPhone users are using Google Search 50 times more than any other handset on the mobile market. It is rumored that all the searches crippled Google’s servers. Apple cut the price of the 1GB iPod Shuffle from $79 to only $49 and they also introduced a 2GB iPod Shuffle that will sell for $69 later this month. We go inside for the Apple TV Review! There is nothing to hate about it, except one thing: typing is terrible! You have to move around buttons on the remote, and if you are going to be using the AppleTV as you main “computer” for purchasing music and videos, you are going to want Bluetooth support for a keyboard! 

 

Mac News Weekly Website Problems (Again)

Friday, February 22nd, 2008

We have been experiencing some major problems with the website this morning. Last night, I was messing around with some of the code and accidently uploading something wrong to the FTP client. I had to delete the entire website and then install WordPress again. Everything is working fine now, but some things may be different than what you are used to. Mac News Weekly is going to be launching a “beta” flash-streaming service of our episodes. I have done some research and I decided that we are going to go with Virb. A few Mac News Weekly viewers have been asking for this for a while (mainly because of episode sizes), and we are finally going to go along with it. Stay tuned for an announcement in the coming days. Thank you for your cooperation, and if you want to see something or have any  tips for the website, email me at max@macnewsweekly.com - Thanks!
