QuadCamera iPhone App
(22 January 2009) - The fourth in the "ToyCamera" series of iPhone apps developed by Takayuki Fukatsu, QuadCamera uses the device's camera to create multiple images taken moments apart from each other. Similar to the normal iPhone camera, the user sees a single image on the screen, but QuadCamera takes a handful of shots spaced by adjustable time intervals. You can also choose between four and eight serial...

iMac Transport Bag
(01 August 2008) - A friend of mine lugs his iMac all over his house, treating it more like a laptop than a desktop computer. With components and working parts concealed within the screen, it's actually not a bad way to go. But the German company Reinda recently created an iMac Transport Bag, making transport all the more easy and safe. We've seen more than our fair share...

Apple TV v2
(13 February 2008) - Adding a few capabilities that help realize its full potential, the newly-launched version of Apple's computer-to-TV entertainment software is a massive improvement over the original. The biggest plus for aesthetes like us is the 1080p output which means you can stream HD movies, TV shows and podcasts (including featured titles like CHV!) with little more than a click in iTunes (TV and movies will...

AirMail
(17 January 2008) - Sometimes the obvious choice is the best choice, which is why we love the new manila envelope-based AirMail sleeve designed for the new MacBook Air by our favorite quick thinkers, Jona Bechtolt and Claire L. Evans. Yep, someone already did it.We were hoping that the Airs would ship in an actual manila envelope, but the AirMail lends functionality by handmaking the case out of...

Macworld 2008
(15 January 2008) - Those of you as obsessed as we are (read: setting up our laptops at the lunch table) already know today's Macworld news—the overall theme of which seemed to be wireless capabilties—but for the rest of you Steve Jobs today announced several new slick Mac products, the most impressive being "the world's thinnest notebook," the MacBook Air (pictured above) and the all-new Time Capsule (pictured...

Eight Favorite iPhone Applications
(07 November 2007) - While Apple will not condone installing third-party applications on an iPhone, we're totally game. The process for doing this has gotten easier and easier, but is still not for the faint-of-heart. And with their recent announcement that there will be official support for third-party Applications in February, it's not too long to wait if you're risk-adverse. For the impatient, we culled our favorites. Once...

Apple x Starbucks: Local Content and Services
(06 September 2007) - More exciting than the new iPods and less frustrating than the iPhone price reduction was the partnership Apple and Starbucks announced yesterday. Buying Starbucks brand music from my iPod / iPhone while waiting for a Cappuccino is nice, but what's inspiring is how the device becomes integrated with the experience in that moment—I want to know what song is playing in the shop so...

Internet TV Alternatives
(23 July 2007) - Apple TV snagged much of the fortune and fame as a stylish, no-fuss way to transfer web content to your television screen. (How very Apple.) For all of the sleek box's plug-and-play appeal, several new products showing up in the market offer different interfaces, capabilities and special features for all people—tech-savvy and not. The following are a few ways to make converting online content...

iPhone Review and Wish List
(09 July 2007) - Having designed the touch-based user interface that has been on Motorola's 'A' series of multimedia phones in China since 2004, my critique of the iPhone comes from a unique, and overly educated perspective. It's not Apple's vision for the iPhone that I find admirable—there isn't much about it that's truly new—it's their ability to execute. After spending the last ten days with my iPhone...

Jed's Other Poem Video
(28 June 2007) - With the dawn of the future just days away (yeah, I'm talking about the iPhone), I couldn't have discovered this interesting lo-fi music video at a more perfect time. Programmed entirely in Applesoft II on a vintage 1979 Apple ][+ with 48K of RAM (pictured above), the music video for Grandaddy's song "Jed's Other Poem (Beautiful Ground)" is a beautifully mesmerizing experiment that reveals...

Mac OS X Leopard
(11 June 2007) - At Apple's Worldwide Developer's Conference today, Steve Jobs showed off several new features in Leopard, the forthcoming release of Mac OS X, including a new, clean look for the desktop and Finder. Taking its design cues from recent versions of iTunes, Leopard is focused on keeping files on your Mac neat and accessible.

Symbol Caddy and Corporate Ipsum Widgets
(14 May 2007) - Brian Haslanger is a designer who has created two handy freeware widgets for Apple's OSX. Corporate Ipsum creates placeholder text according to your length and paragraph specs. Symbol Caddy is a widget I use all the time when writing posts—a click on a symbol or letter copies the HTML code to your clipboard, making quick work of posting symbols, accents, em dashes, etc. ...

Shalgo iBook Cover
(14 February 2007) - From the frontlines of the Pool tradeshow, Shalgo's harlequin patterned iBook cover brings the kind of playfulness that the LA-based company is becoming known for to Apple's own Zen aesthetic of renown. According to our informant, the outfit is made of vinyl stickers. Thanks Ted! ...

Apple TV
(09 January 2007) - Overshadowed a bit by the iPhone's debut (and though it was already announced last September), Apple TV ($299) is a device that holds its own in the growing shift to (finally) get the internet out of the confines of the PC.

iPhone
(09 January 2007) - The big news from Apple today of course is the hotly-anticipated iPhone that combines a widescreen iPod, a GSM phone and internet connectivity into one device—Steve Jobs calls it, "a revolution of the first order." With over 200 patents on features like a multi-touch user interface and a sensor that automatically switches between landscape and portrait mode, he just might be right. Here are...

Nike x Apple = Nike Plus
(23 May 2006) - Mark Parker and Steve Jobs, CEOs of Nike and Apple, announced the first collaboration between the two companies. Eighteen months in the making, Nike Plus is the first of many (we hope) products from these two much-admired consumer product brands. And while this is a great first step, the big story is what other products the two will introduce over time. Nike Plus is...

Thomas Pink Commuter Tie
(22 February 2006) - Don't imagine we're going crazy for neckwear or anything, after posting about skull ties only a few days ago - but this needs to be seen, if only because it's an outrageous example of getting on the iPod bandwagon. Created by British shirt-maker, Thomas Pink it's officially called the "commuter tie" and has a pocket sewn on the reverse to hold an iPod Nano....

MacBook Pro Packaging
(22 February 2006) - MacBook Pro deliveries started happening in the last few days—I got mine yesterday. In between data migration and device lust, I couldn't help but admire the packaging. Some have noted how slim and minimal the box is, while others have appreciated the streamlined set of accessories and documents. I was most impressed with the protective materials that safely suspended the MacBook. With clear reference...

Multi-touch User Interface
(14 February 2006) - Abut 10 days ago Apple filed a patent for a touch screen user interface that could respond to more than one touch point at a time. Ever since then, the web has been a buzz with excitement and fantasy about what that means for upcoming Apple products. The most common speculations, fueled by other patents filed around the same time, are a full screen...

Apple Mighty Mouse
(02 August 2005) - Aside from a mobile phone, there isn't anything I've waited longer for Apple to make. The Mighty Mouse is a programmable 5 button mouse with a scroll ball instead of a scroll wheel. The ball allows for vertical and horizontal scrolling as well as clicking. The shell design is clean and distinctively Apple, with its cleanliness afforded by the fact that the left and...

Mini Mate
(26 April 2005) - The Mac Mini has such great potential to be a home media hub, but the hard drive options it ships with are not very well suited to such use. Apparently upgrading to a higher capacity internal drive isn't much of an option either because they'll run too hot and cause too many problems-- not to mention the innards of this thing are even complex...

NIN + Garageband
(18 April 2005) - Whether you're a Trent Reznor fan or not, this is a pretty damn inventive way to release a single. We now know Trent Reznor is a Macintosh user, because he has released a single as a GarageBand file, for personal remixing. This is a promotion for the Nine Inch Nails upcoming release "With Teeth", which will be available May 3rd. "'What I'm giving you...
