Slim Down for Summer with That's Fit

Talkcast reminder, 10 pm ET tonight

Last week's talkcast featured host Mike Schramm, Robert and Steve shooting the breeze on the latest Mac news including a back-to-school review and notes from the Carlsbad, CA store opening; listen in with the widget below or download in iTunes or via RSS.

Join us later tonight, August 24 at 10 pm ET for this week's show, hosted by Mike R. and featuring everyone's best efforts at a Jerry Seinfeld impression. If you call in and can beat the panel's Seinfeld voices (or, for that matter, do a passable George or Kramer) you'll win the people's ovation and fame forever.

You can join the conversation on TalkShoe by using the shiny browser-only client; you can also use the classic TalkShoe Pro Java client that we all know and love. For the web UI, just click the "TalkShoe Web" button on our profile page at 10 pm Sunday. You can also listen in on the Talkshoe page or call in on regular phone or VOIP lines: dial (724) 444-7444 and enter our talkcast ID, 45077. Hear ya soon!

Reminder: Talkcast tonight, 10 pm ET

Last week's talkcast featured the hosting debut of Robert Palmer along with contributions from me, Dave Caolo and Mike Rose (and some Skype drop-off moments) over the course of the hour. Download the show directly or from Talkshoe, or pick it up on iTunes.

Join us again tonight for host Mike Schramm and panelists Robert P. and yours truly as we cover the week's top stories -- and we might even find time for some trivia and giveaways! We'll also be talking back-to-school with our picks for hardware and software for students.

Talkcast Reminder: 10 p.m. ET tonight

Be so kind, one and all, as to join us tonight at 10 p.m. Eastern time (7 p.m. Pacific), when I have the privelege of joining Christina Warren, Michael Rose, Steven Sande, and hundreds more of our closest friends for our happy-yet-disorderly discussion about the week's most interesting events in the Mac universe.

If all goes to plan, we'll be talking about the new iPhone 2.0.1 firmware, the rise and fall of I Am Rich, the App Store's apparent schizophrenia when it comes to adding new apps, Microsoft Silverlight, and the surprisingly pretty awesome start to the Olympics. And to top it all off, Woz got married! How 'bout that?

If you haven't listened to last week's (excellent, if I do say so myself) first-anniversary talkcast, feel absolutely free to download it straight from Talkshoe, or subscribe to the TalkShoe feed in iTunes.

For instructions on how to listen, follow me across the jump.

Reminder, TUAW Talkcast 1st anniversary show at 10pm ET

If you haven't tuned in yet for last week's talkcast, go check it out -- it features Scott's farewell announcement and our cranky assessment of MobileMe's first weeks. Download direct, or subscribe to the TalkShoe feed in iTunes.

Join us again tonight (Sunday 8/3) for our next live show, 10 pm ET as usual. Since this is the first anniversary of our little podcasting experiment (the kickoff show was back on 8/2/2007), we'll be looking back at the past year of Apple news and casting our Predict-O-Matics forward into the fall. We'll also be digging into the Ghost of Trivia Past bag for some trivia giveaways, all quite vintage (Mac OS 9 games! A broken iPod Mini! A copy of iMovie 3 Solutions by Erica Sadun, which we can probably get autographed for you! A pile of Zip disks -- with a drive!) but delivered with love.

Talkcast is back Sunday 10pm ET with special guest Ged Maheux

So to kick the new week off right, we've got a special guest for you: Gedeon Maheux from the Icon Factory will join us to talk about Twitterrific mobile and we will also get his thoughts on the iPhone 3G. We will also be talking about MobileMe and iPhone applications. In addition, we will be taking your questions, so be sure to join us tonight at 10 p.m. ET on Talkshoe.

You can also catch up on the past few weeks' worth of shows (including our show last week) from Talkshoe, play them from the Flash player in the continuation of this post, if you like, or pick them up on iTunes.

Talkcast reminder: 10 p.m. ET tonight!

Our own Christina Warren will be helming the Starship Chitchat tonight, with a review of this week's top Mac topics! Tonight, we'll be talking about the slow (and unsteady) transition to Mobile Me, and the Mac OS X 10.5.4 update. And hey, did you hear there was some new product coming? I think it's this coming week. I can't remember what it is, though.

Feel free also to catch up on past shows by visiting our page at Talkshoe.

Listen live, tonight at 10 eastern! Follow the jump for details on how to join tonight's call.

Reminder, talkcast tonight at 10 pm ET

As Cory just noted, it's the iPhone's first birthday today, and we've got a present for you: the Sunday night talkcast, hosted this week by Christina and featuring our memories and good wishes for the 1-year-old gamechanger, along with our anticipations for the launch of the App Store in two weeks. Also on tap for tonight: our Apple-themed recommendations for celebrating the 4th of July (make your Mac Classic into a barbecue grill!).

You can also catch up on the past few weeks' worth of shows (including our audience-free show last week, where Robert, Cory and I soldiered on while TalkShoe had a hiccup fit) from Talkshoe, play them from the Flash player in the continuation of this post, if you like, or pick them up on iTunes.

Found Footage: Apple WWDC Keynote in 60 seconds



Here at TUAW HQ we find ourselves watching Mahalo Daily almost everyday. Mahalo has this new thing they do with conferences and special broadcasts where they trim down the video to 60 seconds. So for the folks that don't wish to sit through the almost 2 hour WWDC keynote can just watch a 60 second clip that shows the main points of the keynote.

Thanks, Conrad!

Talkcast tonight at 10 pm ET, last chance for WWDC best guesses

Last week's talkcast included some great WWDC preview discussion with developers Kai Cherry and Todd Ditchendorf along with an expanded panel. Apologies for the scratchy audio (we had to use the Talkshoe low-bandwidth recording instead of the local Skype copy). Download the show from Talkshoe, play it from the Flash player in the continuation of this post, if you like, or pick it up on iTunes.

Join us again later tonight, Sunday June 8 at 10 pm ET for more WWDC conversation -- let us know what you want to hear about and which developers you want us to interview, and our man on the ground in San Francisco will try to track them down. Time and personnel permitting, we'll be back on the air Monday night with another show; keep an eye on the TalkShoe page and our Twitter feed for scheduling.

Talkcast reminder: WWDC preview, 10 pm ET tonight

Last week's talkcast was a valedictory to our trans-Atlantic comrade, Nik Fletcher, who has ended his tenure with TUAW but remains active over at Download Squad. Download the show from Talkshoe, play it from the Flash player in the continuation of this post, if you like, or pick it up on iTunes.

Join us again later tonight, Sunday June 1 at 10 pm ET for our WWDC preview show. We'll be talking to developers (hint -- developers, if you want to talk about your products to Mac users, c'mon down!) and giving away the trivia prizes we neglected to hand out last week.

Talkcast Sunday night, special early start at 9 pm ET: Farewell Nik

Last week's talkcast was a very full house and a very long show, as we delved into the reasons why we mourn the 12" PowerBook G4 and which Apple TV ad shows Mac users in the worst possible light (hint: it stars Milo Ventimiglia, from Heroes). Download the show from Talkshoe, play it from the Flash player in the continuation of this post, if you like, or pick it up on iTunes.

Join us again Sunday night, May 25 at a special early time -- 9 pm ET, 6 pm PT. This week (really this time!) we say farewell to our colleague across the pond, Nik Fletcher. Bring your own beer and your favorite Nik stories and come hear why he's moving on (it's exciting!). We'll even be doing some Niktrivia and giving away some collectors' items (a MessagePad 2000 manual and a copy of the Internet Yellow Pages circa 1996).

Talkcast reminder: the PRE-"Farewell, Nik Fletcher" show

Last week's talkcast was a great introduction to two out of our three new faces here, as Steve Sande and Robert Palmer joined Christina and me for a full hour's chat (along with special guest Liana Lehua from Girls Gone Geek). Download the show from Talkshoe, play it from the Flash player in the continuation of this post, if you like, or pick it up on iTunes.

Join us again Sunday night, May 18 at 10 pm ET for our next weekly installment. We'll have the usual cast of characters covering the news of the week, so don't miss it.

NEXT week [assuming I learn to read a calendar!] we say farewell to our colleague across the pond, Nik Fletcher... he's moving on to greener pastures, and he's staying up late one last time to chat about his favorite moments with TUAW. Please make sure to have a pint of bitters and a hanky at the ready.

Reminder, talkcast at 10 pm ET Sunday night

Last week's talkcast was a lively evening's chat, as Dave, Erica and I diverted from Mac geekery into Trekker nerd bingo (yes, that's not a $6 cab ride away, so no big surprise). Download the show from Talkshoe, play it from the Flash player in the continuation of this post, if you like, or pick it up on iTunes.

Tonight we'll be welcoming at least a couple of our newest team members to the Sunday night festivities, along with your veteran favorites, so do drop by and join us for all the fun at 10pm ET / 7 pm PT. Bring your Mac and iPod/iPhone questions along (no, we don't know when the 3G phone is shipping -- yes, we will be talking about the availability constraints) and we'll do our best to tackle them live on the show.

Itching to learn Esperanto?

Hot for Hindi? Up for learning Uyghur? Wild about Welsh? LifeClever tipped us off to the fact that there are 926 free language training podcasts currently available in the iTunes Store. A quick glance at the available podcasts shows that you can learn 39 languages from Arabic to Yiddish with the help of your iPod or iPhone.

To find this treasure trove of linguistic goodness, launch iTunes, pop into the iTunes Store, click on the Browse link, and navigate to Podcasts > Education > Language Courses.

What am I going to learn on my summer vacation? I'm waffling between Sexy Spanish and Latinum. This is a great way to get your kids to learn a language and keep them occupied during that long, hot road trip to Wally World this summer.

Thanks, Tipster Chanpory!

Reminder: Talkcast tonight at 10 PM EDT

Well, it's Sunday, and as always TUAW will be starting the week off with our weekly live talkcast, thanks to the cool guys at TalkShoe. Michael Rose is on the road, but may still have a chance to call in and chat. I'll be taking over hosting duties for the night; we'll be taking calls and discussing the big Apple news (and Apple rumors) of the week. We'll also be giving away some schwag and software in what may possibly be our first "Movie Based Mac Trivia Challenge."

Once again, you can join the conversation on TalkShoe by using the shiny new browser-only client; you can also use the classic TalkShoe Pro Java client that we all know and love.
