WWDC 2012 Keynote Video Available

Apple has pos­ted a stream­ing video of the key­note event that took place a few hours ago on its Worldwide Developers Conference at Moscone Center, San Francisco. Apple is get­ting faster in this video posts. Lots of stuff announced at the key­note. Not time for everything, so the Mac Pro was silently updated on Apple’s offi­cial product page.

WWDC 2012 — the pre-show

In a few hours, the Apple key­note will kick-start a week tailored for developers work­ing on Apple’s plat­forms. It will be the first WWDC key­note after Steve Jobs’ passing.

OS X Lion: Absolutely Nothing

My thoughts on the WWDC announce­ments have been post­poned quite often due to other affairs, and, while writ­ing had star­ted, they never made it to the blog. Since OS X Lion is rumoured to be released this week, here’s another chance to present my take on Lion as shown at the WWDC Keynote. This art­icle doesn’t try to […]

A Long Keynote?

Earlier in the year, Apple had “hin­ted” that there would be no hard­ware announce­ments on WWDC. Two main sub­jects were on the table — Mac OS X Lion and iOS 5 — but today Apple offi­cially added a third one. The rumored iCloud ser­vice is indeed going to be presen­ted to com­mon mor­tals next week. It’s inter­est­ing that […]

For US res­id­ents this is some­thing fairly new, but for res­id­ents in European coun­tries, Japan, Korea and oth­ers this is no nov­elty since video calls have been around for quite a few years (if I recall cor­rectly… about 10 years?). Let me share a bit of info related […]

iPhone 4 Interface showcase

iLounge pos­ted a 7 min. video show­ing the inter­face of sev­eral iPhone 4 fea­tures. One can get a good sense of what to expect in terms of speed and respons­ive­ness of the device when mul­ti­task­ing, open­ing folders, explor­ing pho­tos, watch­ing video and nav­ig­at­ing through other apps/options. It sure seems to be one speedy gadget.
