What's Really Next for Apple in Television
october 2011 by dsankey
Siri as the new remote. The big problem though is that big content and the cable/sat providers still control the industry. If Apple is seen as a threat, big content can stop licensing the shows, and cable providers can make non-bundled internet accounts prohibitively expensive. But perhaps Apple is planning on buying all the studios and starting its own ISP with all that cash.

september 2011 by dsankey
"An iPad-only steampunk adventure game published by Bungie and developed by Harebrained Schemes, a games company founded by Jordan Weisman, whose past work game players might be familiar with—BattleTech, Shadowrun, and Crimson Skies." Wow, I really haven't been paying enough attention to Bungie news these days. Must get this. (<a href="http://funkaoshi.com">via</a>)

CrumblePop on the new FCP. BTW I've spent about a half hour playing around with FCP X, and so far I think it's a good thing. The new timeline is a real timesaver. Much less fuss about codecs. Still getting my head around the new bin display though.

Aperture #1 Grossing Product on App Store
january 2011 by dsankey
Apple dropped the price on Aperture from $200 to $80. The linked article is a little partisan, but it is indeed an interesting development. One thought though - if the Mac App Store lacks upgrade pricing (like the iOS store), it would mean it will cost another $80 to update to the next version.
