It’s so far, so good for me with Leopard. I’ve done two clean installs - one to create a new Leopard development machine, the other because I had to repartition my laptop - and both have gone smoothly, as you would expect.
I did an Archive and Install upgrade of my Aperture drive, mostly to save […]
If you want to read my take on Leopard, you’ll have to go over to my, er, ‘other’ blog. It’s called the Guardian technology section.
This isn’t a permanent thing, just a one off.
With Leopard’s release imminent, I think we should take a moment to reflect on Mac OS X Tiger. In my opinion, Tiger has been an outstanding foundation for the growth of the Mac platform that we have seen over its lifetime. The fact that the six month delay to Leopard was met with more […]
I visited Edinburgh Castle with my friend Neil yesterday. It was really great - I hadn’t appreciated how much there was to see in there.
There are at least three army museums, the crown jewels of Scotland and the Stone of Destiny. The Royal Apartments are the part of the castle in which James I was […]
We Mac developers all love to program. We love to design, build and create cool stuff for you. We like to hear what you think and try to make you even happier next time. That’s what being a Mac developer is all about and we do that partly because we love to. We also do […]
You bet I’m excited about the iPhone SDK. It’s clear (as it has been all along to those of us with seeds) that the platform for building iPhone apps was going to be Leopard. As John Gruber points out, the iPhone has LayerKit - which you know as Leopard’s Core Animation. Tiger was […]
Just in case I have any interested readers, I’m auctioning my 7TB Xserve RAID on eBay. Auction ends tomorrow.
I’ll even drive it to your house, if you live on the UK mainland. Send me any questions via ebay.
I don’t really think my photography could be said to have a particular ’style’. The very thought seems hopelessly pretentious. Still, I was looking through my Aperture library a while ago and noticed that the number of images I’ve shot with my EF-S 10-22mm lens is dramatically higher than I would have expected for such […]
I started to read Strobist, then I bought a flash. Then I had to find something to shoot with flash. Turns out that babies are awesomely cute subjects for this kind of thing, and I happened to have one handy.

I shot this with an umbrella - first time I’ve done that - but not […]
There has been a lot of talk on various blogs about new photographers’ next steps. Most comments surround the (many) virtues of the Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II lens. John Gruber, Dan Benjamin and James Duncan Davidson kicked it off on an episode of The Talk Show. Recently, Bill Bumgarner chimed in about […]
