Interesting to see how these websites have changed over the past ten years and not always for the better.

This is an embarrassing bug but undoubtedly will get fixed very quickly.

I’ve always lusted after an iPad Pro. This video makes me lust after one even more.

I bet it was a lot of fun for the Apple employees to hang out with The Stanley Cup, even if some of them had to have an explanation of what it was.

Apple financial results for Q1 2019 to be announced tomorrow may get very interesting.

I really like Luminar. It can be very easy to use for beginners and is visually more interesting than Lightroom. Whether it’s more suitable for “average consumers” than pros is something that can be argued. Let’s just say, it’s not going to replace Lightroom for me.

It’s ridiculous how many different streaming services there are. This article will just increase the insanity. There are several services here I’ve never even heard of.

“Conventional wisdom” says labour costs are the primary reason why more manufacturing isn’t done in the US. But the issues preventing it are wide and varied as this article shows.

You young whippersnappers will now have to watch as us old farts exclaim, “I loved RAM Doubler!” It was freaking magic.

I gotta say, I was enthralled by this. It’s been playing out, one tweet at a time, on Twitter over the past 24+ hours. Great story. I hope there’s a sequel.

I played and loved high school football. I am so grateful my 13-year old isn’t interested in sports in general, let alone football. I honestly don’t know if I’d let him play the game.

This is a good, fair ruling that helps a grieving family recover precious memories. It’s also a good reminder to include this kind of stuff in a “digital will” or, at least, be sure others have access to this kind of personal information.

Personally, I have no problem calling Google Glass a complete flop. Maybe it was ahead of its time but the time it was ahead of is one I’m not going to be happy about when it does, inevitably, come.

This is great news for information junkies like myself.

We tend to avoid or be unintentionally ignorant of how our technological world affects our natural world. Lithium is a great example of something we all need but have little idea of how we need it or how it affects the planet.

Dave and I talk a lot about the Macintosh and what it was like in the early days for developers. I also talk to Dave about what it was like to write books about programming on the Mac back in the day.

It will be interesting to see if and/or how much Apple bounces back from all of the bad news of late last year.

This actually happened to me as well. Luckily, I noticed it before the call actually went through.

Apple also posted some behind the scenes and making of videos.

Frenemies working together to, hopefully, the benefit of their users.

Most of us wouldn’t be caught by this but it’s a good opportunity to remind less techy friends and family to not download files or click on random pop-ups.

I want to know what made this guy think he wasn’t going to get another ticket when he tossed the first one out the window?

Some of these are brutally funny and NSFW.

Obviously, it’s not quite this easy to use Apple Pay Cash but it’s getting there.

I’ve known about the “nation” of Sealand for years and it always seems like an eccentric, odd little thing some rich guy did. The real story is much weirder and deeper.

The gadget guy in me loves Apple Pay and wishes I could use it more. My wife thinks it’s black magic and is deeply suspicious of it.

I rarely need to leave my car at the airport but if I did, I’d use this in a heartbeat.

Gibsons, on The Sunshine Coast, is where I live. The first three breweries in this video – Persephone (where my wife and I had our first date), The 101 and Gibsons Tapworks – are all within walking distance of our home. It really is a spectacular and naturally beautiful place. If you’re ever in the area for a visit, let me know – the first round is on me.

I happily watched the eclipse on a chilly Sunday evening over a fire with my wife and sons. It was a lot of fun but we didn’t see the meteoroid strike. We were too busy trying to stay warm.

Keep in mind that, like many contests like this, Apple won’t necessarily pay you if your submission is accepted as a contest winner. That being said, it can’t hurt to tag your photos to enter the contest.
