The Rejection of Podcaster »

It's very sad to see Apple turning the App Store into this procrustean system, in which developers, after having working hard and long on their applications, can't even have it pushed out to users and let them decide whether it's worth using or not.

Meet the Peek »

David Pogue:
Feature-listers judge a product by one criterion: how many features it has, no matter how clunky the design... Elegance-appreciators, on the other hand, prefer something that does less, but does it better... Make way for another elegant one-trick pony: a pocket-size doodad called the Peek, which sends and receives e-mail.

Multiple Item Editing in iTunes 8

One of the features that really makes me a happier human being in iTunes 8 is the inclusion of a much-needed revision to the Multiple Item Information box which now allows all those item attributes to be edited that were added over the course of iTunes 7.0 through 7.7, but which never made it into the Multiple Item box. See screenshots here and here.

On the other hand though, I've found this odd bug in iTunes 8: if I close the iTunes window, switch to another app using Cmd+Tab and switch back using Cmd+Tab, instead of nothingness, I see a big white square. Oh well…
