big ups to Josh for letting me be a part of the team.
great article by John Gruber over at Daring Fireball:
“Put another way, the obvious structure for a post-Jobs Apple is simply Apple as we know it, without Steve Jobs.”
i think he’s totally en pointe with regard to Apple’s CEO situation. if you’re at all interested in the future of technology, i highly recommend reading this article.
also in the news this week (here’s another DF link, sourced from The BBC) is the insane amount of cash Apple has on hand:
“Apple’s most recent financial results put its reserves at $76.4bn”
many have speculated what Apple might use this cash for, but most suggestions involve laughably small portions of this immense amount of corporate wealth. stock holders have wondered why they aren’t seeing any of it.
my theory combines these two articles.
just a reminder that i occasionally review film-related apps for macgasm.net. macgasm’s readership has really shot up over the last few months as more and more people recognize it as a site with great writing about Apple news, products, and apps. and they still let me write for them anyway.
here’s a permalink to all my articles if you want to bookmark them.
also, @macgasm tweets new posts, and i try to retweet my reviews and articles, but don’t always.
a better headline might be “Movie Magic Scheduling iPad app escapes.” this app is more like proof of concept than really usable on set. good thing it’s $30. we can do better than this. someone can do better than this.
read my in-depth, slightly scathing review over at macgasm. included in my review of the app is a look at software for the film industry (and other professional industries) as a whole.
let’s go, bananaman. you better get on the stick.
just posted one of the longest articles I’ve ever written over at macgasm. while you’re waiting on info about the new Final Cut to trickle in this week, give it a read and let me know your thoughts.
big thanks to Joshua Schnell, editor-in-chief of macgasm.net for giving my article a spot in front of his readers.
Ben Brooks recently shared his iOS homescreens along with some of his readers’, so i thought i’d join the nerdfest.
