Wow. Apple released the iPod shuffle in multiple colors today. I still love my little silver shuffle, though, I can’t lie… these colors are mesmerizing. Add to that, the fact you get the new headphones with these… Man… I love the color switcher they built into the site to play off the different colors.
Will we see an orange iPod nano soon? Or a RED iPod shuffle?
Use Twitter and own a Mac? Twitterific from the IconFactory is just what the doctor ordered!
Twitterrific is a fun little application that lets you both read and publish posts or “tweets” to the Twitter community website. The application’s user interface is clean, concise and designed to take up a minimum of real estate on your Mac’s desktop.
Now if only someone would port this over to the PC-side of life…
John Gruber had a lot of interesting stuff to note aboot yesterday’s Apple Special Event:
- The new iPods do not support FireWire. Not just no FireWire cables in the box; no FireWire, period. Such is the price of smaller and thinner, I suppose.
- Highest capacity iPod is still 60 GB. There certainly exists a market of people who want larger capacity iPods (I know at least four people personally who can’t fit their entire libraries on a 60 GB drive … and I don’t have many friends), but I don’t think Apple sees this as a significant selling point. Thinner and lighter seems to be what Apple thinks will sell … and judging by the Nano’s popularity, they’re almost certainly right.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I own a Dell. I also own 2 iPods, a PowerMac G4 and a PowerBook G4. I love Macs. Apple just relaunched their Switch site. It’s very cool. Check it out, why don’t ya?
