Well, it’s been a hohum kind of day. I don’t really want to talk about it, but I’m not really feeling it right now. Also, the Apple Keynote at MacWorld really left me wanting. There was nothing big at all. I will say the iPhoto/iMovie changes sound nice and I’m pre-ordering the new iLife suite as a result, but the new 17″ MacBook Pro…meh and the iTunes Music Store going DRM free…slightly less meh.
UPDATE: iLife ’09 preordered. Yes, this one does excite me the more I think about it.
Cool new features:
- iPhoto
- Face detection/tagging
- Geotagging
- Place/Person organization
- Facebook & Flickr uploading
- iMovie
- Precision editing (about time this was brought back from the old iMovie and hopefully it actually works)
- Themes
- Travel Maps
- Garage Band
- Artist Lessons (Yes, this may be gimmicky, but heck I wouldn’t mind being taught by Sarah McLachlan, Norah Jones, or Ben Folds to play their songs)
NOTE: My opinions are mine and mine alone…
