Keyword Manager for iPhoto

by David Chartier (Nov 20th, 2006)

For as long as I can remember, Ken Ferry's Keyword Assistant has been the only iPhoto plugin (at least, AFAIK) for adding some real power and, dare I say, "tagging" to iPhoto's keyword system. Now there's a new kid on the block by the name of Keyword Manager, and it definitely brings some ...

iTunes song tagging redux

by David Chartier (Sep 30th, 2006)

We reported a method for tagging iTunes tracks and creating on-the-fly playlists way back in January. However, it involved using Quicksilver and a couple of home-grown scripts, but we can dig it if some of y'all aren't down with a tool as broad-reaching as Quicksilver.

Taco HTML v1.7.2 is Universal

by David Chartier (Jun 9th, 2006)

If Dreamweaver is a bit overkill for some web work on your desk, Taco HTML might just be the editor for you.
