A podcast about all things Macintosh. For Mac geeks, by Mac geeks. Episode 153. – Wearable computing has been around as a concept for a while, but recently with Google Glass and the rumored Apple iWatch there has been more talk that wearable computing is the next step in computing evolution. Is it? The hardware seems ready, but are we? Is Apple? Ken Ray (Mac OS Ken & Mission Log) joins me to talk about wearable computing and where we see Apple taking part (or not) in the next stage of consumer technology.

A podcast about all things Macintosh. For Mac geeks, by Mac geeks. Episode 152. – I’ve had Pages on my iPad (and iPhone) since Apple released it and I use it on occasion for limited things. As we transition more and more into Tim Cook’s “post-PC” era I see myself doing more and more things on my iPad, but so far I think I’ve not taken full advantage of iWork on the iPad. A big reason why is that I haven’t taken the time to fully understand the tools within the new touch interface paradigm. With this episode I hope to remedy that a bit.

In case you missed it, Panic Software released a cool iPad app this week called Status Board. It’s an app that let’s you have various “panels” that can aggregate information for display on your iPad or out to a TV via HDMI ($9.99 in app purchase) or Airplay. The app comes with various panels like a clock, weather, calendar, email, Twitter, and RSS. These have settings and views you can select and you can resize and place them to customize your Status Board. The app also has three panels, Graph, Table, and Do-It-Yourself that can be customized with your own data. You can add data via CSV files or JSON and build view with HTML, CSS, and Javascript. All very cool and very extensible.
I played around with making my own Status Board panel and in just a little bit of time was able to build a panel to show Apple’s current stock price. Panic even provides a nice little sample in the form of a How Many People are in Space Right Now panel, which is what I based mine on (just view source ;) ). When you’re done there is even a URL you can build up to share your panel with other Status Board users. If you’d like my $AAPL Stock Panel just click this link from an iPad with the Status Board app installed:
