Michael Briney
(1956-2008) Co-Founder

Michael was an invaluable resource to the Mac community and a friend to those around him. Throughout his career, he worked with some of the best and brightest in the creative industry, including the sharpest minds at Disney.

Michael had opinions (some polarizing) on a number of issues, but was always respectful and everything he touched was handled with professionalism. He was a tremendous resource and gave endlessly to those around him. Sadly, Michael lost a hard fought battle with cancer earlier this year. It was a huge loss to this group and to me, personally and professionally. Rest in peace, my friend.

Twitter Site Updated

Asides

You may be stumbled onto the Twitter site tonight and thought to yourself, “hrm.. something feels different”. And you’d be right.
The guys at Twitter are starting to roll out a series of updates. According to Twitter, this round is purely cosmetic.. and will support some future (not so trivial) updates.
I like the new look. [...]

Mac Software iPhone

Cultured Code, who is already off to a great start with their GTD desktop application Things, has released their highly anticipated iPhone version.
You can use either of these apps on their own, but if you have a Mac and an iPhone, your life is about to get a lot simpler.. or at least more organized.

    Ars Technica has long been one of the most comprehensive and respected sources for Mac news/analysis.

    Daring Fireball when John Gruber has something to say, most of the Mac world stops and listens.. attentively. No joke.

    AFP548 Mac OS X Server administration. Not the most lickable site, but their forums are a freaking gold mine.

    Make Mac Work administration and implementation of Mac systems in corporate environments. Superb content.

    Engadget has tech news and reviews for probably every freaking electronic product you've ever heard of.

    Lynda.com online, self-paced video training for pretty much everything (459 courses, 30K videos)

    iLounge is the most significant iPod and iPhone (and accessory) site there is. Dizzying number of reviews..

    Paul Stamatiou a wealth of comprehensive and thoughtful Mac commentary. Very smart kid.. keep your eye on him.

    Tech Crunch a bit sensationalist.. but still have their finger on the pulse of the tech industry
