As I have in years past, last week I attended SXSW down in Austin, Texas, catching the last portion of the film festival, as well as all of Interactive and Music. I wrote some of this up for us over at The Mac Observer and iObserver, and also included mentions in our Mac Geek Gab [...]

You can read it over at TMO (where there are some *great* comments) and/or watch it in my interview with TheDigitalLifestyle.tv. Or, you know, right here below.

I had what I consider to be quite a fantastic idea for solving a lot of the complaints about the iPhone OS’s lack of multitasking support for third-party apps. I wrote about it over at TMO, so you can see it there. Enjoy!

Just posted an article about my lightning experiences and lessons learned over at TMO that *should* have gone live a year ago, but got lost in the system. Thankfully a conversation sparked up this weekend on the Macworld Forums about Chris Breen’s related power experiences, and it sent me to seek out this old article [...]

Skype for the iPhone came out last night, and I spent a little time with it, and wrote a lot about it. Don’t worry, I’ve been using Skype regularly for years, so most of what I wrote is actually real stuff I didn’t make up! The article’s posted over at iPodObserver today, and even includes [...]

On a few recent Mac Geek Gab episodes I’ve mentioned my current backup strategy and more than a few listeners have asked me to document this somewhere. I figured this blog was as good a place as any. Starting in 1995 and up until February when Apple’s Time Capsule came out, I was a died-in-the-wool [...]

For years I’ve complained that the only time I think to blog something is when I’m away from my computer and, hence, nothing gets blogged. My blog frequency certainly supports that. Now that WordPress for the iPhone is out, perhaps that will change and you’ll hear more from me here, as well. Time will tell.

The audio and slide-video from the “Running Your Mac Lean, Clean, and Mean” session I did at Macworld Expo 2008 is now freely available online.

As most readers know, last week I attended the South by Southwest conference for the first time. I caught the last bits of the film festival, and then was there for both Interactive and Music. I reported on this over at The Mac Observer and iPodObserver.com throughout the week, as follows: Twitterized Attendees Shape The [...]
