Karen Anderson has many passions, one of which is the subject of blogging. In the first of a series of conversations on the subject, Karen helps us understand where we’re going by learning about where we’ve been in the world of blogging. Didn’t know blogging had a history? It does, from an origin in a surprising form of offline communication to what Karen calls the “Golden Age” and “Dark Days” of blogging, to the rise of microblogging. Along the way, sources of content, the crossing of swords with traditional media and more all contribute to our understanding of this popular and evolving form of online expression. Look for more conversations with Karen on this subject in future editions of MacVoices.

MacVoices #13137: Ted Landau on Apple TV, Apple Televisions and a Possible Turning Point in Apple’s Operating Systems
Ted Landau talks about the benefits of multiple Apple TVs (and why he now has one on every screen in his home), whether an Apple television makes sense, and how we all consume our video entertainment. Ted then takes aim at the next version of iOS and discusses what effect the absence of Scott Forstall will have on the direction of the iOS interface, why this could be a turning point in the iOS, and why he thinks this version will signal Apple’s intentions on the merging (or not) of the two operating systems.
