Settling Back Down
#Things are finally beginning to settle down here.
Power On Software has acquired Now up to Date/Now Contact . This is good news. These products were very popular with both myself and my family and friends. They had been languishing(the products not my family) under Qualcomm's ownership.
I've been reading Iconocast for a couple of years now, but I have never gone back to the site to look through old issues. This page of archives is great.
I went to see American Pie over the weekend. While it's not for the prudish or faint of heart, this movie was excellent. I would compare it to a combination of Porky's and Stand by Me . The gags were funny and I thought the writing stood up to any of the classic comedies that I love so much. The cast, most of whom are relatively unknown, gave great performances.
Looks like Apple and Swatch are cross promoting Internet Time and the iMac.
The Register is reporting that they will also be making a co-branded Internet timepiece .
Dave Winer asks What is a WebLog? I don't care. Why do we have to define things?
Macintouch reports that a preview version of MacAMP 1.0 will be available July 17.
This Salon story seems relevant to me.
