In Episode 77 of The Maccessibility Round Table Podcast, our knights discuss: iTunes home sharing, the iPad air 2, Audio Hijack 3, and the end of TUAW. Knights on this episode: Josh De Lioncourt Darcy Burnard Eric Troup John Panarese Shelly Brisbin The Round Table is sponsored in part by Draconis Entertainment, developers of high quality audio games for Mac, iOS, and Windows.

After recapping the Super Bowl, Ryan and Carlos discuss Nintendo’s YouTube Partner Program, the convergence of mobile and desktop operating systems, Apple stylus rumors, the stagnant state of Apple TV, more Apple Watch expectations, Outlook on iOS, AOL closing TUAW, and Radioshack filing for bankruptcy.

Welcome to the future! Where you can scan your own books page by page thanks to Amazon (http://www.engadget.com/2015/02/03/rip-and-mix-is-fine-but-dont-burn-books/). The future sadly will not include Radio Shack, which may be selling its stores to Sprint (http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2015-02-02/radioshack-is-said-to-discuss-liquidation-as-part-of-sprint-deal) or Amazon (http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2015-02-03/amazon-said-to-mull-buying-radioshack-stores-in-retail-expansion) or both. Dan doesn't mind because You-do-it Electronics is still around (http://youdoitelectronics.com). And, truly alas, TUAW will not be around in the future (http://www.tuaw.com/2015/02/03/so-long-and-thanks-for-all-the-fish/) and neither will Joystiq (http://www.joystiq.com/2015/02/03/there-is-no-end/). No sign, however that Daring Fireball is about to go under (http://daringfireball.net). Individually run sites have the benefit of being able to make their own advertising decisions (http://sixcolors.com/post/2014/12/no-other-gatekeeper-but-me/). It's not hard to imagine that AOL might mess up a decision or two as it's still big in the dialup Internet business (http://consumerist.com/2013/08/08/believe-it-or-not-2-58-million-people-still-pay-for-aol-service/). If you miss TUAW, you can find most of them soon at Apple World Today (http://appleworld.today). Apple itself, meanwhile, is rumored to be building a data center in that no-longer-used sapphire manufacturing facility (http://blogs.wsj.com/digits/2015/02/02/apple-to-build-data-command-center-in-arizona/). Lex is happy there's a way to make your iOS device's screen even darker (https://medium.com/@searls/how-to-make-your-iphone-dimmer-than-dim-d20fd3bbbb66). He's weird that way.

Jim and Shawn talk about Super Bowl ads, TUAW, music creation and good bourbon!

Mit Gast Tobias Günther diskutieren wir die Grundlagen von Git, warum Versionskontrolle für jedes Projekt lohnend ist, warum Tower der beste Mac Git-Client ist und hauen dabei ein Haufen Zeug per Gewinnspiel raus. Link zum Bild: Blick ins Cockpit Als Pilot braucht man eines ganz bestimmt: Einen Tower der einem sagt was Sache ist. Deshalb haben wir diese Woche den fournova Chef Tobias Günther zu Gast. Als fournova CEO führt er nämlich einen Tower. Dieser ist zwar nicht für Flugzeuge gedacht, sondern für Git, zeitgleich nutzt er im Cockpit eigentlich nix außer man sitzt am Steuer eines Macs. Im Großen und ganzen passt das also super und deshalb ist Tobias unser Gast und Git-Guru, der zu eben diesem Thema gerne Rede und Antwort steht. Eine Warnung vorab… Patrick’s Tonbandaufnahme ist beim Winken aus dem Fenster gefallen und wurde direkt von der Turbine angesaugt und zerschreddert. Das heißt: 3x mal super Qualität + einmal der Bordanlagenmitschnitt für euch. Denkt euch eine Bestrafung für ihn aus und postet diese. Des weiteren verbürgt sich das komplette Team dafür, dass sowas nie wieder passiert, sollte dem doch irgendwann so ein so regnet es Gratisflüge nach Mallorca im Odenwald als Entschädigung für euch. Das schönste gleich vorab: Heute werden gnadenlos die Goodies rausgehauen, gleich 3 Gewinne werden von Der Ubercast verlost! Lieber Fluggast, wenn dir das Gehörte gefällt oder dir Sorgenfalten auf die edle Stirn fabriziert, dann haben wir etwas für dich: iTunes Bewertungen. Überbleibsel – Overcast unter Feuer Das Follow-up fängt gut an, denn nach einer zweiwöchigen Overcast Testphase müssen wohl einige der Piloten ihre Meinung kund tun. Die Nörgelfraktion wird angeführt von Andreas, der sein Trilliarden an Podcastfeeds nicht gescheit per OPML-Datei importiert bekommen hat. Als altgedienter Podcaster hat er dann in den sauren Apfel gebissen und manuell mal einen Feed hinzugefügt. Kurz um, die Menüführung und auch das Abspielen hat ihm überhaupt nicht gefallen. De facto konnte sich Andreas auch nicht dazu durchringen, die Extrafeatures der App für bare Münze zu erwerben oder Overcast auch nur länger als ein paar Tage zu nutzen. Der Retter in der schillernden Rüstung naht, mit dem Mikrofon als Schwerte in seiner Faust gereckt, stürzt sich aber sogleich auf den bösen bayrischen Drachen und lässt folgendes verlauten. Sven F. aus S.: Ehrlich? Also ich hab’ mich da wohl, muss ich sagen, wirklich mit angefreundet. Hab’ auch den Button gedrückt - 4,99 für die In-App-Purchases. Ja, … und hör da eben jetzt ganz fleißig. Sven Fechner Gast Tobias ist vorbildlich, er verplempert seine Zeit nicht mit Podcasts. Wenn er das tut, dann hört er n-a-t-ü-r-l-i-c-h Der Übercast; und das ganz genussvoll mit der Pilotenmütze aus unserem Fanshop auf dem Kopf… ach ja, … und ein paar Sachen von 5by5. Dazu reicht ihm dann auch Apples Podcast App. Gewohnheitstier Patrick mosert immer noch wie letzte Woche darüber das er Pocket Casts Grid Ansicht stark vermisst. Im Gegensatz zu Andreas hat er aller Wahrscheinlichkeit nach weniger Podcasts im Abo, denn bei im ging der Import reibungslos. Hinzu kommt aber, dass er wie sein Co-Pilot die UI nicht sehr schlüssig findet und das navigieren in dieser ihm doch recht schwer fällt. Als wenig Intuitiv empfindet er zum Beispiel auch die Menüleiste ganz oben (Settings, Downloads, Playlists, Hinzügen). Was aber der Hit ist, sei die Smart Speed Funktion, welche die Sprechpausen kürzt und somit Zeit spart beim Anhören ohne wie eine Jauchefarm zu klingen. Deshalb, und alleine deshalb, nutzt Patrick seitdem Overcast als seinen Podcast-Player (Pssst, Patrick. Pocket Casts arbeitet auch schon an einer Alternative). Smart-Boost interessiert ihn nicht, wobei das Feature wohl nach Olli aus England (Freund von Andreas) ganz praktisch sein soll, da das Zeug was Olli sich durch die Ohren zieht wohl nicht ganz astrein mit Stahlmantel um’s Micro produziert ist. Halten wir fest: Tobias ist zufrieden mit der Apple App; Sven war noch Jungfrau, da er bisher nur ge-Appel-podcasthört hat ((Anmerkung der Redaktion: Bitte noch einmal den Link zum Fanshop klicken an dieser Stelle)); Andreas ist “not amused” und Patrick wird zum hören gezwungen dank eines Alleinstellungsmerkmals. So, falls ihr uns als Leitwolf was Podcastapp-Empfehlungen angeht angesehen habt, der euch jetzt die Absolution zum Geld rausfeuern gibt, weit gefehlt. Ich verweise an dieser Stelle mal auf einen Auszug aus unserer “Über Über” Seite: »Ehrlich gesagt weiß Der Übercast das alles auch nicht so genau, was Andreas, Patrick und Sven allerdings kein bisschen davon abhält diese Themen zu diskutieren.« Nichtsdestotrotz ist Overcast ein sehr solider und populärer Podcast-Client mit mehreren Features die es so nirgendwo anders im Moment gibt. Besonders das hören (und syncen der Position) über die Webapp gefällt Patrick noch sehr gut, da es in seinen Hörflow passt (und er sich das nun sparen kann), Smart Speed und Voice Boost sind ebenso nützlich und die Entdecker- & Empfehlungsfunktion (brought to you by Twitter) ist schlichtweg Klasse. Marco Arment ist zudem ein fleißiges Bienlein und hat wohl mittlerweile auch den OPML-Import für solche Horter wie Andreas gefixt. Als fairer und sympathischer Typ hat er auch die besten Podcast-Clients für iOS in seiner App aufgelistet, falls einem nach dem Gratisdownload die App so wirklich rein gar nicht zusagt. Wir ziehen auf jeden Fall den Hut. Überschallneuigkeiten Die Macbook Air Sticker Ad löst Gefühlsausbrüche bei Sven aus und er hört den Soundtrack nun wohl jeden Morgen auf dem Weg zur Arbeit. Deshalb will er auch gleich wissen, wer Sticker auf seinem MacBook hat. Gast Tobias ist nackt unterwegs… was uns die Sprache verschlägt und voll in ein Luftloch steuern lässt: Link zum Bild: Fotomontage zum Thema “Tobias sein MacBook ist nackt… also ohne Sticker”. Die einzigen Sticker die Patrick für sein Ex-MacBook gesammelt hat befanden sich in einem Evernote-Notebook. Die Idee an sich fand er nicht verkehrt, wollte aber alles komplett bedeckt haben und bis er genügend Material angesammelt hatte, war sein MacBook schon verkauft. Andreas glänzt mit dieser Kombination: Link zum Bild: Ganz rechts das bitte. … was im Klartext heißt: Ableton Live, Reason, Apfeltalk, Producer’s Conference (Reason), Weiss nicht (Traktor von NI?), Pustefix, GitHub, NSBrief, Reason Channel Strip. Alle Sticker aus der Werbung findet ihr in diesem Sammelpost von TUAW. Die meisten der gezeigten Sticker und Decals findet ihr auf Etsy kostengünstig. Viele davon sind auch in Deutschland erhältlich. Und wer noch wirklich gute, geile, gemeine Stickerempfehlungen hat schickt die Bitte an flugdeck@derubercast.com oder zwitschert die uns direkt ins Ohr. Wer es noch nicht mitbekommen hat, die Yosemite Public Beta ist gestartet. Wer uns auf Twitter folgt hat vielleicht mitbekommen, dass Andreas und Patrick ab und zu schuldbewusst über Probleme fluchen. Im großen und ganzen läuft der Karren aber schon recht gescheit. Sven empfiehlt nochmals allen Neugierigen vorher ein Backup zu machen oder Yosemite von einer Zweitpartition aus zu booten. Andreas führt auch geradewegs noch einmal eine große Leidklage an: Zum Zeitpunkt unserer Aufnahme ist Audio Hijack Pro noch nicht kompatibel mit OS 10.10. Hier ist jedoch ein erneuter Blick hinter die Kulissen nötig, um diese Sendung komplett zu (ent)würdigen. Patrick betrauert das natürlich genauso, kurz nach der letzten Sendung hat er upgedatet und ein paar Tage später nachgeschaut, ob sich bei Rogue Amoeba was getan hat in Punkto Kompatibilität. Geistesabwesend wie die zwei Bruchpiloten sind, hat aber keiner von Ihnen gecheckt, dass 3-4 Tage vor dem Aufnahmetermin ein entsprechendes Update zur Verfügung stand. Beide nehmen mit QuickTime auf und den Rest vom Lied kennt ihr. Patricks Aufnahme crasht und ist unwiederbringlich verloren (normal gibt’s da ein paar Tricks… aber in einer Beta gelten nun einmal andere Regel. Unwiderruflich!). Also be aware of betas! … oder schneidet wie obiges leidgeplagte Opfer einen halben Tag lang eine Backupspur die “eh nix klingt” und versucht es euren Hörer als Bordanlage unterzujubeln. (Anmerkung der Redaktion: Sorry du, passiert nüscht widahr). Und ja… Audio Hijack ist so steil, dass das damit nicht passiert wäre (da es die Spur live, direkt blank und ohne Präser auf die Platte schreibt – also keine Angst vor nächster Woche, Sven). Podcaster? Audio Hijack Pro kaufen! Im Zeichen dieser Sendung soll ebenfalls nicht unerwähnt bleiben, dass Tower bereits jetzt schon Yosemite kompatibel ist. Mehr news, news, news: Shawn Blancs multimediales Buch “Delight is in the Details” ist in einer neuen Version verfügbar und zwei Exemplare werden bei uns verlost. Mehr dazu gegen Ende dieses Artikels. Together, der beliebte lokale Evernote Ersatz ist nun auch für iOS verfügbar. Es soll zwar noch ein wenig Probleme geben mit dem iCloud-Sync, aber Entwickler Steve Harris setzt alles daran, dass es bald richtig flüssig läuft und hat schon 2 Updates seit der Aufnahme rausgeprügelt. Patrick nutzt die App schon seit geraumer Zeit auf seinem Mac - Weshalb alles folgende eine reine Mac Sicht der Dinge ist - und das Together Archiv befindet sich in seiner Dropbox. Der Aufgabenbereich von Together umfasst bei ihm lediglich die Themen Design und Inspiration – es wird also nicht als all-in basket benutzt. Das beste Feature, die Tag-Bundle-Gruppen, verschweigt er in gewohnter Manier, aber… Show Notes Lesen wissen mehr. Also, ihr legt zum Beispiel fest, dass alles was im Ordner “Webseiten Inspiration” gleichzeitig mit vier Tags (website, inspiration, webdesign, ubercast) versehen werden soll. Beim nächsten Start von Together wird alles automatisch getaggt. Klar… geht auch mit Hazel, aber Together kanns’ halt auch und man muss kein Genie sein um die Funktion zu nutzen. Dateien in solche Buckets schieben geht auch ganz leicht, denn Together kommt mit einer Desktoperweiterung (ein “Shelf”). Bewegt ihr die Maus an den Bildschirmrand, könnt ihr dort in den Ordner eurer Wahl die Datei oder den Link ablegen. Beide Versionen sind 50% günstiger für einen Monat (also bis ca. zum 23.08.2014) – Tags syncen sich von Device zu Device: App Store 17,99 € iTunes App Store 8,99 € (ohne Gewähr, wie in der Show besprochen nutzt unser Pilot nur die Direktversion der Mac App) FiftyThree, die Macher von Papers und dem Pencil haben nun eine SDK zu ihrem Stylus nachgeliefert auf das in Zukunft Drittanbieter auf die erweiterten Funktionen zugreifen können. Git Tobias gibt uns eine kleine Einführung in Git und schafft auch gleich das große Missverständnis aus der Welt dem Neueinsteiger gerne auf den Leim gehen: Git ≠ GitHub. Letzteres ist nur ein Ort an dem eure Git Repositories lagern und dort von allen Teammitgliedern genutzt und weiterverteilt werden können. Git an sich ist ein modernes, dezentrales Versionskontrollsystem, welches sowohl lokal im kleinen Rahmen genutzt werden kann, aber auch von Riesenprojekte wie jQuery, Ruby on Rails, etc. verwenden Git. Tobias nennt uns seine Beweggründe, warum er Git als zukunftssicher ansieht und was ihn begeistert im Vergleich zu den Alternativen. Es wird schnell klar das fournova Missionare sind was Git angeht. Auf ihrer Webseite findet man kostenloses Material für Einsteiger und Fortgeschrittene, unter anderem Lernvideos, eine Online Lernplattform und ein Ebook. Was ist Git? Eine kurze Übersicht Patrick fasst die Basics zusammen in seinem Lieblingsformat, einer Liste: History/Verlauf-Tracking und Sicherung = Nichts geht verloren Schnappschüsse von momentanen Dateien zu ausgewähltem Zeitpunkt. Ein Sammlung and Dateien und deren Verlauf wird gespeichert in einem Repository. Distributionsbeispiel/Teamworking Zentrales (online) Haupt-Repository Lokale Repositories 1, 2 und 3 der drei Teammitglieder Erstellen von Branches/Zweige, z.B. Webseite neue Navigation oder auch nur Textänderungen in der “Über uns” Seite. Zusammenführen von Änderungen wieder zurück ins Hauptrepository. Commandline oder GUI Hier wird es wieder interessant, denn Tobias ist der Kommandozeile, also “dem Terminal” gar nicht so zugetan wie man vielleicht annehmen mag. fournova wollte Git einsetzen in einer Zeit, wo es noch keine grafisches Userinterface für Git gab. Schon früh wünschte er sich eine simpel zu bedienende Lösung mit grafischer Benutzeroberfläche, um die Kraft die Git innehält per Maus und mit übersichtlicherer Informationsdarstellung zu bewältigen. Das war der Stein des Anstoßes und wenig später wurde Tower geboren. Tobias gewährt Einblicke hinter die Kulissen seiner Softwareschmiede und der geneigte Hörer bekommt am eigenen Ohr zu spüren was so alles geölt werden muss, dass ein Unternehmen in der Softwarebranche reibungslos läuft. Wie lerne ich das? Die wichtigsten und schönsten Git-Befehle gibt euch Andreas mit auf den Weg. Patrick rät dazu am Anfang möglichst klein anzufangen und nur die Git Basics zu lernen. Also in der Kommandozeile mal ein Repository erstellen, lernen wie man einen commit macht, klont, etc. Ja nicht mehr. Nur kleine Babyschritte. Am besten indem man dies in ein eigenes kleines Projekt einbindet und dort alle wichtigen Änderungen per commit festhält. Das wichtigste ist, dass man keine Angst vor Fehlern haben muss, da so gut wie nie etwas gelöscht wird von Git. Alle diese kleinen Weisheiten und mehr findet ihr auch auf SixRevisions. Dort wartet ein kleiner und feiner Artikel von Tobias in welchem er 7 Tipps für Einsteiger aufzählt. Dort bringt er auch das Konzept an sich näher und zeigt auf was es zu verstehen gibt um durchzustarten. Patrick hat quasi nach dieser Anleitung angefangen Git zu lernen und ist dann nach einem längeren Client-Vergleich in der Tat bei Tobias seinem Produkt, Tower, gelandet. Denn mit dieser GUI konnte er dann auch problematischere Dinge lösen, wie zum Beispiel das wiederherstellen eines bestimmten Stückchen Codes aus einer alter Revision. Wofür brauche ich das? Halten wir die Erkenntnisse aus allem Vorangegangen fest, merken wir, Gits Versionskontrolle zu nutzen kann einfacher sein als man zunächst denkt. Mann muss nur daran denken es zu nutzen. Wenn man das verinnerlicht hat, dann kann man eine weite Bandbreite an Möglichkeiten ausschöpfen, ob man nun einen Aufsatz schreibt, ein Buch, seine kleine Webseite zusammenschustert oder große Webprojekte zusammen mit einem Team meistern will.

Davy Buntinx, @dirtyjos op Twitter, of via zijn website. Onderwerpen We beginnen met Harold die de IFA in Berlijn heeft bezocht. De IFA is de grootste consumenten electronica beurs in Europa. Dit jaar was er heel veel 3D, en veel iPad concurrenten. De Samsung Galaxy Tab bijvoorbeeld. We kunnen natuurlijk niet over de nieuwe Apple gadgets heen, die vorige week woensdag aangekondigd zijn. Zoals de Apple TV (maar weer niet in ons land), en veel nieuwe iPods.  (Macrumors, TUAW.com) Facebook geeft "liked" berichten weer in zoekresultaten. (All Facebook) Mag je nu wel of niet tegenlijk twitteren en TV kijken via je superdeluxe HD televisie met internet? De omroepen lijken de remmende factor te zijn  (dutchcowboys, ETSI, hBBtv) Nieuwsflitsen Op Amazon stond voor even iLife 11 te bestellen. (amazon.com - via google cache) Google news maakt afspraken met AP over de verspreiding van hun nieuws. (villamedia) Er zouden meer games in het onderwijs gebruikt moeten worden, aldus Pascal de Smet. (edublogs.be) Youtube start de reclame van het jaar campagne, nominaties zijn gestart. (YouTube) Tips Cindy heeft twee tips die beide met wijn en wijndrinken te maken hebben: wij drinken wijn, een groepsblog over wijn en CellarTracker, software om je wijn te beheren. Stefaan haakt hierop in met Vinoteka, een mac applicatie voor het beheer van je wijn voorraad en wijn kelder. Marco wil beter tijdmanagement en de applicatie Pomodoro Desktop helpt hem hierbij. Davy vind Secrets for iPad (iTunes link) een fijne app als naslag over het gebruik van de iPad, met veel nuttige tips. NASA heeft ondertussen ook haar applicatie vernieuwd en er is nu een NASA HD app voor de iPad. Harold stuurt ons naar AppleHome, een website gericht op domotica, maar met aandacht voor Apple producten. Jan gaat naar de Open Monumenten Dag, die aanstaande zondag (12 september) is. Niet tech genoeg? Daar vergist menigeen zich in. Er zijn schaalmodellen van de Antwerpse havens, en bijvoorbeeld 3D tekenen. Feedback Het Tech45-team apprecieert alle feedback die ingestuurd wordt.

Tim is joined by Steve Sande from TUAW to discuss the new products Apple released this week, including the new iMac, Mac Pro, Battery Charger, and Magic Trackpad. Did you know that you can now order an iMac with two hard drives installed? Steve also discusses his new "Taking Your iPad to the Max" book.

It's that season again - tons of new cameras and gear to discuss. We'll get into some of the latest and greatest, and tell you how to take better pictures on sunny days with the equipment you have now. But first, a bit of catch up - on our last show, I mentioned an online back service that will mail you a hard drive with your data, saving you weeks of downloading your data should you crash yours. I couldn't remember the name, but have since looked it up - it's BackBlaze. $5/month or $50/year for unlimited storage. If you ever need to get your backed up data on physical media, it'll cost you $89 for a DVD's worth of data (?) or a more reasonable $189 for a USB hard drive with your files. Both prices include shipping and handling. The hard drive seems like a great value to me. Our listener and guest-Tweeter Landya McCafferty kicked butt again, winning the Photowalk Contest for her city for the second year in a row! Go Landya. Of course, her city is Placenta, Wisconcin, and she's the only resident with a camera. Kidding! Not only did she win, but her photo was featured on Scott Kelby's blog. You'll also see some great examples of both naturalistic and surrealistic HDR shots. If one LCD on a camera is good, two must be better, right? The people at Samsung hope so. Maybe it will convince you to buy a TL220  or TL225.The names certainly won't. Back to basics with the Canon S90. Great sensor, clicky controls and manual settings. I want this camera, but I agree with Michael that the G11 offers more functionality, but its not pocket-friendly. Shoot a lot? Toshiba's announced the World's Largest SD Card - 64 big fat gigabytes of goodness. Although wouldn't it have been funnier if they meant an SD card that was like 12 feet or something? They should save that announcement for April Fools Day. Oh wait - the card uses the new "SDXC" format which won't work in your current camera anyway. Turns out, the joke really was on us.The iPhone is the second most popular camera on Flickr and Camera Genuis makes it better. Maybe. You can read a review on TUAW here. The user reviews are mixed, but for 99 cents, you can afford to find out for yourself. SmugMug is our favorite site for sharing and - should you chose to accept this assignment - selling your photos. SmugMug has two fantastic offers just for our listeners: 50% off your SmugMug service at any level (enter code "Flickr" at checkout). This is a fantastic discount and you should take advantage of it in time to share your holiday photos!A free camera strap to any listener of Digital Photography Life: This one is just crazy. A high-quality camera strap that replaces the neck-slicing piece of canvas that your camera's manufacturer condescended to include with your DSLR. Get your freebie here.

Die heutige Folge ist (wieder einmal) geprägt von Spekulationen und es kann sich schon morgen alles klären und wir stellen fest, dass es alles nur heiße Luft war. Genau so kann es aber die Wahrheit sein und der Aha-Effekt wird in einigen Wochen nicht mehr so groß sein. So ist das Leben. Apple möchte laut TUAW und AppleInsider ein Special-Event Ende Februar veranstalten, wahrscheinlich nach dem 21ten und somit eher am 26ten. Ich nenne einfach einen Dienstag am Ende des Monats und schon bin ich im Recht. Danke AppleInsider. Der Retail Store in München ist jedenfalls ausgemachte Sache, es bleibt nur noch auf das Eröffnungsdatum zu warten. Unabhängige Marktforscher sehen jetzt jedenfalls schon Retail Stores von Apple in deutschen Großstädten wie Berlin, Frankfurt, Köln, Hamburg. Wollen wir nur hoffen, dass dies nicht nur am erhöhten Drogenkonsum liegt. Der beliebteste Browser von eingefleischten Apple-Fanboys Safari wird vielleicht schneller. Wenn Seth Weintraub Recht hat, sogar um ganze 2,5x. Ein wenig mehr CPU-Leistung frisst er dadurch auch, angeblich ist dies aber insignifikant. Außer Safari habe ich heute noch Photonic im Angebot, das im Vergleich zu bisherigen Flickr Tools hauptsächlich schicker aussieht. Das ganze ist noch Beta und daher ein wenig instabil. Die Software soll wohl 20 USD kosten und irgendwann erscheinen. Wer sich mit Flickr beschäftigt (und das tun sicherlich viele der kreativen Mac-User), sollte sich das Tool mal anschauen. Den Podcast kann man als Feed abonnieren, oder aber in iTunes abrufen. Über Anregungen, Kommentare, Kritik und alles andere würde ich mich sehr freuen (z.B. in iTunes, als E-Mail oder als direkten Kommentar zu diesem Beitrag). Macinme Daily #21 Download
