This is the tip of a global iceberg. More bad news will come.

Take a look at some of these live cam shots of Italian tourist hotspots. The Roman Colosseum, the Piazza San Marco in Venice, Florence’s Piazza della Signoria, the Trevi Fountain. Tourist locations that are normally packed, even in late winter, are almost empty. This summer may well become known as “The Summer without Tourists.”

As a motorcyclist, this is an event we would say had a “very high pucker factor”! The rider filming was going more than 96mph when he saw the oncoming bikes. The oncoming bikes were likely at that speed or higher. All were very lucky to get through it alive.

They have browser plugins for Chrome and Safari. I’m going to give it a try for a while.

Last week, the county recommended this step. Things have gotten so much worse so fast, they feel the need now to actually ban the activities. While WWDC isn’t technically affected by this three-week ban, it may have a chilling effect on those wanting to attend.

More sleazy companies doing more sleazy things.

This might be the most ambitious “shot on iPhone” video ever undertaken.

I love stories of these kinds of shots. They often include the skill of the photographer, great timing and not just a little bit of luck.

I like a good hockey fight as much as any other red-blooded Canadian but this was mayhem.

As the article explains, solving our traffic congestion issues by building more roads won’t work. We’ve got to find ways to get cars off the road, not make it easier/better for them.

The tracker keeps up with developments and announcements from Amazon, Microsoft, Foxconn, Facebook, Google, Samsung, and Apple.

Delightfully nerdy story.

One of the big issues with the “advice” of “just stay home,” is that many people, especially in retail, can’t afford to. This is a big gesture on Apple’s part and shows a lot of trust in their employees.

I love Scott’s video channel. When I drank bottled water years ago, I always chose Dasani. I knew it was just tap water but didn’t care. I didn’t know it wasn’t available in Britain.

I won’t be surprised if these cancellations spread to other areas or last into April and May.

This is an updated support article from Apple but I’ve always used Clorox Wipes on my water-resistant iPhones.

This site will get shut down in 3….2….1….

It’s only a matter of time before FIDO happens but it won’t be a quick or easy fix.

Really interesting article, whether you want to run a restaurant or not.

While reports of its death are greatly exaggerated, RSS isn’t a particularly popular piece of tech. But NetNewsWire is well done and well thought out. If you need a full-featured RSS reader on the Mac or your iOS device, you won’t find a better one than NetNewsWire.

I’m not really much of a “where there’s smoke, there’s fire” kind of guy so I ignore most of the rumours but this switch seems inevitable.

This will be the same story for other smartphone vendors as well as just about any sector that relies on China for sales.

Good news for Mac laptop users.

This program is very specific to these iPads only but if you’re affected, Apple has you covered.

Things are going to get worse before they get better. This all but ensures Apple will cancel WWDC. It’s just a matter of time before they make the announcement.

And check out Apple’s home page today.

IMO, Neil deGrasse Tyson is the very definition of the word “annoying.”

The SXSW organizers should have made this decision on their own and not been “forced” into it by city officials. Your move, Apple.

There will come a day when automakers will stop making insane supercars but today is not that day.

Coronavirus is affecting people around the world, but what does it mean for WWDC? Dave and I also talk about the possible affects on iPhone production, as well as switching Apple Music to other countries.
