TUAW looks back at Stevenotes past

by Kelly Guimont (Aug 28th, 2011)

As Apple watchers, TUAW staffers tend to congregate in San Francisco each January for Macworld Expo. Until recently, the central event of each Expo was the Stevenote. Since TUAW bloggers have covered our fair share, I've collected some memories of Macworld Expo's Keynote Speeches. We'll start ...

There's a bit of a celebration/commiseration hangover here in the US of A today, with the exact taste depending on your point of view. As always, the fine duo behind the Joy of Tech comic have distilled the Internet's mood down to a four-panel screenful of truth. Regardless of your political ...

Joy of Tech and iPhone accessories

by Dave Caolo (Feb 5th, 2007)

The folks at Joy of Tech posted a funny one recently that makes predictions about the forthcoming iPhone accessory industry. They suggest cramming one inside an old Newton case, among others. You laugh, but I bet it happens. If you're the first person to wedge your iPhone into the case of an old ...

How to buy Vista, Joy of Tech style

by Michael Rose (Jan 27th, 2007)

We don't link to Joy of Tech that often, because if we did we'd end up doing it pretty much every day (cue Carly Simon... Noooobody doooes it bettah...). When the readers start giving us the heads-up that Nitrozac and Snaggy have produced something especially trenchant and wry, though, we are bound ...

Joy of Tech on the new Apple ads

by Scott McNulty (May 4th, 2006)

The Joy of Tech has a tiny tweak to the Get a Mac ads that they would like to see. I won't ruin the punchline, but I have to agree with them. That would get me to buy a few more Macs (they come in six packs, right?). Thanks, Douglas. ...

Jumping Steve iTunes plugin
