Although I prefer Lightroom (as many of you may know), Aperture is a subpar, secondary alternative available from Apple.

by Adam Fisher-Cox on Dec 19, 2007 at 09:37 PM

If you have Leopard and haven’t tried out at the very least iChat’s built in screen sharing capabilities, I’m wondering why not? It is, for lack of a better word, awesome. I’ve seen and done screen sharing before, but iChat makes it so easy- and pretty darn fast even at… Continue Reading »

Breaking: VOIP working on iPod Touch
