We posted the video yesterday but this article has some great detail about its creation along with a “making of” video and links to other Apple holiday spots from the past.

I saw this tweet a couple of days ago and didn’t make the connection. This morning, as I finally realized what was going on, I literally laughed out loud! Now I have to follow Mr John Lewis on Twitter. You've … Continued

This story is unlikely to change anyone’s mind about shopping on Amazon but, like all the other stories about working conditions at an Amazon warehouse we’ve seen over the years, it shows how hard the job is.

While this video is long and may be of interest only to video editing folks, I found the look into his process fascinating, leaving aside how powerful the combination of the iPad Pro and LumaFusion were. He also includes the link to the final edit.

What a lovely little video. I am surprised that they didn’t use an iPad though.

Like Tim Cook, Ive speaks gently and eloquently. I really enjoy listening to both men speak – for different reasons.

We talked about this on the Your Mac Life show three weeks ago but, as Moren rightly points out, this has been a feature for years. SO why are people only just now “discovering” it?

Fun, high energy spot.

I want to give a quick shout out to the free Windowed MacOS app – It’s a “browser” that lets you view, upload and manage your Instagram accounts from the desktop. I use the Instagram app when I’m on my phone but, when I’m on the desktop, Windowed works great.

I wonder how much of this is Cook simply being pragmatic?

I love this response to the latest “bendgate” fake controversy.

There are some fascinating photos, in both good and bad ways, in this collection.

This is a really interesting dissection of a show and album many of us may have heard as kids. I met Mr Cash briefly when I lived in Nashville, TN and, even though it was in a very mundane setting, I couldn’t have been more excited and he couldn’t have been more generous and kind.

Dave and I discuss the iPad Pro magnets, Stan Lee, and Amazon’s, or any companies social responsibility, when moving into a new town.

I’ve already got my calendar set to remind me.

It has finally dropped – this year’s John Lewis & Partners Christmas ad. Typically sappy but a lovely tribute and message.

Typically long-winded (and annoyingly repetitive) piece from AppleInsider but it is a good antidote to the “APPLE DOOMED!” stories coming out because of the recent stock slump.

He has passed but the things he helped create will outlast us all and give joy to millions for generations.

Popular Mechanics: In 2017, according to an annual report from music-industry research company Buzzangle, cassette sales in the U.S. rose 136 percent, even more than vinyl, which was the only other format in the beleaguered music industry that was still … Continued

This is a great point. I’ve gotten lucky with many shots but I’ve never gotten lucky with night shots. They require planning well ahead of time.

I have no dog in this hunt but I find it really interesting. Amazon is just playing the game the politicians have set up for them. And, if past is prologue, there will be no long-term damage to them over this.

I’ve been following this weirdly fascinating story for years. I loved the idea that an international measurement was represented in reality by one example of it deep in a lab vault in France. I’ll be a little sad when it gets replaced.

Absolutely amazing work. Even more impressive when you think about the time, experience, effort, and just plain luck required to get this incredible footage.

I don’t think this trend is reversible. Should it be? Is it time for the album to die?

I get why Apple feels they need to do this but I think, without a better, fuller explanation of their reasoning behind doing it (something we are unlikely to see/hear), they are on the wrong side of this issue. If they’re not careful, they may find themselves in legal hot water because of it.

Stan Lee brought a great deal of joy into the world.

The look of the Incredibles is very specific – seemingly familiar but not really.

I understand that many people aren’t happy about the decision but they feel it is the best decision for Flickr/SmugMug going forward.

Always interesting to see how tech is replacing some of this old school stuff.
