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.

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.

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.
