   Nancy Leamy may not have her own personal website. But her house does. A vacation property, it has a lot of character and even more competition. Faced with so many properties on the market, Leamy hoped a top-drawer realtor would help spark interest, but she wound up generating more leads herself. With iWeb. Disappointed at the way the realtor’s listing presented her vacation home, Leamy fired up iWeb and iPhoto and went to town “It was very intuitive,” she says. “Once I started, I just kept going.” Two hours later, Leamy’s house had its own website. “I really liked how easy it was to publish using .Mac. I didn’t have to do anything but pull down a menu that said Publish to .Mac.”1 1. Available to customers age 13 and older, the .Mac service requires an annual membership fee and Internet access. Terms and conditions apply.   Podcast Pick. Show of hands. Who’d like to hear a good story? Then you’ll want to subscribe to Patrick E. McLean’s “The Seanachai.” Episode after satisfying episode, the podcast delivers a truly enjoyable storytelling experience. If it’s true that no one reads anymore, it’s probably because they’re all listening to “The Seanachai.”

For director David Fincher, making a movie is an exploration. A
discovery. And Final Cut Studio plays a lead role in that revelatory
process.
“We’ve shot the setups, we have the coverage, we have the pieces that we feel we need” to create a project like the upcoming feature film “Zodiac,” he explains. “And now we need to kind of sift through it and find the humanity of it.” Using such built-in tools as multicam, he can “put all the screens up and go ‘oh, he’s great here and he’s great here, so let’s cut from these two.’ It’s just a really fast way to work.” “What this kind of toolset allows you to do is to experiment,” he says. “It makes me go, ‘okay, I’m telling the story I want to tell.’ And that’s a great world for making movies.”  
With episodes from more than 100 TV shows to choose from, your
programming options continue to expand on the iTunes Music Store.
For example, the recent arrival of compelling programming from NBC News adds “CNBC Specials,” “Tom Brokaw Reports,” “Meet the Presidents,” “Dateline NBC: Crime & Punishment,” and numerous other special news programs and documentaries. 
They complement nicely the hit primetime series that
CBS has just made available to its new iTunes audience. These
include “Survivor,” everyone’s favorite reality series; “Numb3rs,”
the hit new crime series that’s adding to the network’s popularity;
and a fine collection of crime-scene dramas, including “CSI: New
York,” “CSI: Miami,” “NCIS,” and the hugely popular “CSI: Crime Scene Investigation.”
Got a favorite TV show? You can probably find it on iTunes.  
“Learning iLife,” explains Michael Rubin, author of the recently
published “Apple Training Series: iLife ’06,” “really means learning
to live digitally.” So Rubin has us practice our new digital
lifestyles by assuming the roles of a parent, student, and
small-business owner undertaking a variety of projects using iLife
’06.
Through 14 lessons, we learn how to create custom music CDs; publish bound portfolio books filled with digital product photos; produce instructional and time-lapse videos; create “radio show” podcasts; design and publish a website filled with photos, video, blogs, and podcasts, and many more similar projects. The companion DVD provides all the needed project files, and Rubin’s easy-to-read narrative takes us step-by-step through instructional material on iTunes, iPhoto, iMovie, GarageBand, and iWeb. Available now, “Apple Training Series: iLife ’06” costs just $34.95.
 
But while some of the computers you manage may be in the same room,
the rest could be way over there. In another building. Another part
of town. Even in another time zone. So when it comes time to conduct
a company-wide software update, how do you make certain that each
and every system is up to date?
By using Apple Remote Desktop 3, of course. With just a few mouse clicks, you can delegate the update to a Task Server, scheduling it to take place at the most appropriate time. And don’t worry if some systems aren’t available at the designated hour. Remote Desktop simply delays the update until they come online. Like to see how easy it is to take advantage of the new Task Server in Apple Remote Desktop 3?1 1. A Task Server requires a separate license of Apple Remote Desktop 3 Unlimited Managed Systems.

Cohen, or any of the other musicians, athletes, or movie stars that
Preston has placed in the crosshairs of his viewfinder during his 30-year career as one of
the leading celebrity photographers of his day. A truly high-caliber
shooter, his work has graced the covers of People, TIME, Newsweek,
and Rolling Stone, and now he has a new, favorite weapon.
Aperture. On an impossibly tight deadline for People, Preston rushed off to photograph the newly silver-medaled Sasha Cohen in her Turin hotel room. "It was amazing," he enthused about the experience. "The entire process—from the time I met up with Sasha to using Aperture to download, edit, correct, and transmit the images to getting the email that we'd met the deadline—took just two and a half hours." |
