The evening star
I was having a conversation with a friend of mine, who referenced a tweet I sent last night as I was preparing to go to sleep, and went off on a tangent describing in more detail what the tweet was talking about. I liked how it came out so much that I thought I’d [...]

Microsoft Office, or the lack thereof
Today I removed Microsoft Office from my MacBook Pro. I realized that iWork ‘08 can handle most of what Office can do and that it can now convert and open Office documents with ease. Pages can read .doc’s. Numbers can read Excel spreadsheets. I don’t know for sure if Keynote [...]

iPhoto 7. Events are pretty awesome. So much easier to organize photos. And [...]
