I assume most of you know about Flickr, the awesome, and free (unless you go pro) photo-sharing service. But it isn’t only for sharing your photos with your friends and family, it is also a great image search engine. Many photos on it are under Creative Commons, and the quality of image you get is much higher than on a place like Google. There have been... [weiterlesen]

Apple has long used the security of its software as a selling point. While Windows machines are often plagued with viruses, spyware, malware, any number of bad things, Apple users generally go about their days with little or no security protection, because little to none is ever needed. However, starting with Snow Leopard, the company is apparently packaging anti-malware tools into its operating system.

Apple also wrote that no discussion... [weiterlesen]

A recent study by the market research group NPD showed that digital music purchases continued their steady rise to market dominance during the first half of 2009.  While that fact in and of itself isn’t all that surprising, what share of the overall music market iTunes now makes up is enough to knock the socks off even the most passionate Apple devotee: 25%. That’s not 25% of... [weiterlesen]

Earlier today, a listing appeared on the Apple Online store that no one expected. A product was posted claiming to be a Box Set bundle of iLife ‘09, iWork ‘09, and the clincher—the as-yet-unreleased operating system Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard. While this was simply the result of a glitch in the store, and not actually the release of the product—which, consequently, was removed as soon as the error was... [weiterlesen]

What makes a great app? Is it the features? The price? The interface? The answer, of course, is all of these. But even when put together, these aspects don’t always add up to be the ideal piece of software. There’s another part that isn’t always available, but when it is, it catapults an app within range of perfection. This final piece of an app is the user’s connection with the developers. I have received comments on both of my recent software... [weiterlesen]
