Circus ponies, podcasting, and more macworld

I've got more Macworld expo highlights for you, including my thoughts on how podcasting fits into the Macworld zeitgeist. There's also an interview with Elizabeth from Circus Ponies, makers of Notebook software.

A special guest appearance

Deb Shadovitz and I intended to record a short wrapup of Macworld Expo for Victor Cajiao, host of the Typical Mac User podcast. We talked for an hour and figured Victor would edit us into a short segment. Instead, he posted the conversation as a special show on his feed. Check it out for thoughts on the keynote, and a few obscure show highlights. (Can there be an obscure highlight? Hmm.)

Gogle's logo is in braille today

Big f ing deal!

For a more cogent and family-friendly response, I refer you to this post from Jeff Bishop. He's absolutely right.

"Today is Louis Braille’s birthday and in celebration of that fact Google has made their logo done up in Braille characters. OK Google, nice, but why don’t you actually do something useful like fix your visual verification issues for blind computer users, now that would be a nice gift. Don’t worry, it won’t happen. I am afraid it is going to take court action to get Google to move. I sincerely hope I am wrong."
