For episode seven of the Finer Things Podcast, John and I were joined by our first guest ever, Jamie Young of AppAdvice, to discuss some of the more intricate and far-reaching details of iOS 7. There are some relatively unexplored things much larger than a "redesign" happening in this major upgrade to Apple's most significant OS, so we wanted to traverse that undiscovered country. Finer Things Podcast #7 clocks in at a hair over 37 minutes, and it was a really fun show to record. Thanks again to Jamie for joining us.
For the Finer Things podcast episode 6, John and I talked about the ins and outs of trying to get wireless phone and data service while traveling the globe.
John and I discuss this morning's news of Apple releasing Logic Pro X, the first time it's released an entirely new, separate app from a previous offering in the Mac App Store, how Adobe's new cloud-based pro apps approach differs, and what Apple's move could mean for App Store developers who want to make sustainable, lasting apps. Also, Farmville. You can grab the new episode from iTunes and our direct feed below. Also, if you have a minute, please do rate or review the show in iTunes, it really does help! Thanks for listening.
For a hair over 20 minutes, John and I discussed what I refer to as "Newsreaders 2.0"—this new generation of tools rising like a phoenix from Google Reader's soon-t0-be ashes. We get into why there seems to be so much interest again in a post-social-media world and what's different this time around.
In episode 3 of the Finer Things in... podcast, John Morrison and I delved into game consoles—the major releases coming this fall, the transition the industry is fighting tooth and nail, how things will get better, and why we might someday soon be able to actually visit the Mushroom Kingdom.
For the second Finer Things In episode, John Morrison and I discuss some of the finer details of OS X 10.9 Mavericks and iOS 7, what they mean to each other and Apple's future. We went a couple minutes over our typical 20 minute limit, but I think you'll agree it was worth it.
Chicago Sun-Times laid off its entire staff of professional photographers. We discuss why and what it means for both readers and the changing world of "professional" photojournalism.
