TUAW's Daily iPhone App: Tumblr

by Mike Schramm (Jul 8th, 2011)

Tumblr is, of course, the blogging platform that's taken off lately, featuring an easy way to quickly post a lot of different kinds of media, as well as share it across friends and networks. Tumblr's iPhone app has been serviceable since it came out, but it hasn't always been the best option ...

Amazon deal could affect Apple's publishing efforts

by Mike Schramm (Nov 9th, 2010)

Amazon has just backed down a bit on its newspaper publishing program for the Kindle service, and it's possible that it happened as a result of pressure from Apple itself. Amazon has announced a new plan for newspapers and their content that would give them a full 70% royalty split, a deal very ...

National Geographic TV app a disappointment

by Mel Martin (Apr 13th, 2010)

I love National Geographic Magazine. I love their HD cable channel. I really dislike the free app they have released today for the iPhone. The app is designed to let you know what the cable channel is airing, and you can certainly browse the schedule. But there is no search option, so finding ...

'iGuide' another rumored tablet/service name from Apple

by Mike Schramm (Dec 29th, 2009)

"iSlate" isn't the only less-than-exciting name that Apple may be considering for their rumored upcoming tablet release. MacRumors has uncovered another possible trademarked name for the new device: iGuide. They found what appears to be a shell company created by Apple a while back (December 2007, ...

Regator provides news aggregation for the more blog-minded

by Sang Tang (Aug 19th, 2009)

Catching up on the happenings around the blogosphere is a difficult task. Luckily, I happened to stumble upon John Burke's Download Squad piece on the release of Regator [iTunes link]. So, if you'd like to get caught up on the latest news, insights and commentary on Rod Blagojevich around the ...

A huge collection of Apple TV resources

by David Chartier (Aug 14th, 2007)

Poor Apple TV - the iPhone has been outshining the handy little media hub, and Jobs arguably might not have helped matters by calling it a hobby (though, personally, that makes me optimistic for its future). Fortunately, last100 has compiled a very, very thorough list of Apple TV resources that ...

The future of Fake Steve

by Mike Schramm (Aug 7th, 2007)

Man, I head out for a few days (I've been away at BlizzCon, reporting for our online gaming cousin WoW Insider), and Fake Steve got burnt. Not by us, of course-- we made a promise to not care about the identity of Fake Steve, and we still don't. But we're not the only site on the Internet, and the ...

On the trail of Fake Steve Jobs

by Mike Schramm (Jul 13th, 2007)

Everybody's favorite anonymous Mac commentator might be a little closer to becoming not-so-anonymous. If you checked out Fake Steve Jobs's site yesterday, you might have seen a short post about a marginally funny iPhone Haiku site. I've still got the post in my Google Reader, as you can see in the ...

by David Chartier (Jun 28th, 2007)

Since Adriaan Tijsseling makes one of the Mac's best blogging clients, it only makes sense that he also has a slick RSS newsreader called endo that we honestly don't stay on top of as much as we should.With features like a custom Growl-like alert window which allows you to read snippets of feed ...

Rogue Amoeba offers teaser and sign-up to test new mystery app

by David Chartier (Feb 26th, 2007)

Oh Paul Kafasis, you clever Rogue Amoeba. What with your two-punch post of a teaser and sign-up offer for a new mystery app dubbed "AHT." What could this new app from the makers of Audio Hijack, Fission, Nicecast and Airfoil be? Is AHT simply a code name, or an acronym? Will AHT complement Rogue ...

Develop a WordPress theme on your Mac

by Scott McNulty (Dec 26th, 2006)

I'm going to tell you a secret, that I hope we can keep between us: I am a big fan of blogs and blogging. I love to write and I love to read, so blogging is a natural extension of that (and I hope my level of enjoyment makes its way into my posts here). WordPress is the hottest blogging tool out ...

Cocoa Blogs, by Scott Stevenson

by David Chartier (Dec 12th, 2006)

I have to admit right up front that I'm not as familiar with the Mac dev community as I'd like to be. I don't know a lick about developing, and I get a bit intimidated as I know it's one of those trades that has a completely different set of constraints and connotations to manage; there's nothing ...

On Apple, blogging and policies

by David Chartier (Oct 30th, 2006)

For some time now, Apple's hush-hush policy on public communication has been the focus of much debate. The discussion escalated, however, with the debut of the Masked Blogger, an Apple employee blogging under the radar (or directly in the middle of it, depending on your perspective). Today, John ...

by David Chartier (Sep 25th, 2006)

The Omni Group has hinted at new products and teased us with a handy tool and toy. While 3rd party solutions have existed to turn their OmniOutliner Pro into a mean, lean Getting Things Done machine, the Omni Group has finally spilled the quintessential bean in a recent blog post and confirmed that ...
