So, today I have a bunch of random links that I haven't had time to blog recently (nice icon, huh?).
First, what is Apple gonna tell us about next Wednesday? The hype and rumour mill is busy as usual, but the general consensus of speculation seems to be that we're gonna hear about the iTunes phone from Motorola. I'm an optimist so I'm hoping for something bigger. The invite to the event certainly seems to indicate something revolutionary anyway.......
There are also apparently some .Mac updates imminent that will include new features, and OS X 10.4.3 will shortly be on it's way to developers and will include a whole shedload of minor fixes and updates. Who knows? - maybe the .Mac updates and the event on Wednesday will prove to be not entirely unconnected?
Next, I'm just about to check out Digital Life TV, as it's presented by Patrick Norton of TWiT fame, and episode 2 features Kevin Rose also.
Also, I found Partition Logic recently, which is a free alternative to Partition Magic. I haven't tried it, use at your own risk etc., but it's about frickin' time! - there have been GNU/Linux tools to do this kind of thing for ages, but they've always required a geek to operate them. This will hopefully make life easier for the more average user, and people can stop shelling out £40 for a piece of software that they'll probably only ever use twice.
Finally, and all in a big splurge of links, lifehacker seems to be a blog of interesting tech tips, DTV is an Open Source Internet TV platform and application for the Mac that I will be looking into further when I have some time, and protopage is a very interesting-looking project to allow for a personalised homepage on the net (although I'm getting on very well with my personalised google homepage at the moment).
