New .Mac SDK exposed
C.K. mentioned that Apple is releasing a new SDK (software development kit for those of you who aren't all up in the software biz) in July which will focus on collaboration.Gus Mueller, the man behind Flying Meat software, spills the beans from a WWDC session featuring the new .Mac SDK and what he saw was very, very cool. Here is a little taste from his blog, 'Computer "A" opened up an application, with 6 picture wells in it. Computer "B" did the same thing, and dropped an image in one of the wells. A couple of seconds later, that same image showed up in computer A's application. Computer A dropped another image in a different well, and that picture showed up on person B's computer.'
The most exciting feature of the new SDK is that those of us who aren't .Mac subscribers can enjoy in the collaborative goodness (though you will need to be a .Mac user to 'host' one of these sessions).

Until I see firm evidence - or worthwhile use - I'll stick to Sub-Ether-Edit / .Mac bashing... hey I'm just about to put another $100 (69) on the table for another year of @mac.com - if I get a friend to pay the 100 in the US can he forward me the key... I'd only have to pay him 54. A tiny saving - but I'd make me feel better about paying for this utter rip-off of a 'service'. It does little more than hangging my My mac, showing me the fun side of the beach-ball of death... Bring back iTools!
