Tiger eats Longhorn?

April 26, 2005/

On Friday, Apple is shipping the new version of Mac OS X “Tiger“.  Bill Gates this week “unveiled” (like it was a secret) their next version of Windows dubbed “Longhorn“.

Clearly concerned about the inherent security of a Unix-based operating system (OS), great graphics, a better client experience and Spotlight shipping in an OS roughly a year and a half before search even close to Spotlight debuts in Longhorn, Microsoft may not be nervous but undoubtedly ensuring they’re viewed as the technology leader…not Apple.

Is it just me…or is the timing of this amusing to you too?

Connecting the Dots Podcast

Podcasting hit the mainstream in July of 2005 when Apple added podcast show support within iTunes. I'd seen this coming so started podcasting in May of 2005 and kept going until August of 2007. Unfortunately was never 'discovered' by national broadcasters, but made a delightfully large number of connections with people all over the world because of these shows. Click here to view the archive of my podcast posts.
