The Road to Macworld takes a turn into the business district as we talk with Ty Jacobs of Fourth Frame Technologies, the makers of SG Project 2, which brings project management to the iPad.

Ty also talks about his decision to exhibit SG Project 2 at Macworld, and what his goals are for the show.

MacVoices #1109: The Road to Macworld – Featured Artist Jonathan Mann On How He Stays Creative By Being Prolific

Rounding the turn and heading down the final stretch on The Road to Macworld, featured artist Jonathan Mann talks about his daily creative regimen: creating a song or video each and every day. In his Macworld session, How I Write A Song A Day, Jonathan will share his tips and techniques, but with us, he explains how he discovered this demanding schedule helps keep him at his best…most of the time. Acknowledging that sometimes it is, “OK to suck,” Jonathan talks about some of his best known work and where it has taken him (hint: Steve Job’s “Antennagate” address), how he lives the creative life, and why there are too many love songs and not enough about everything else.

The Road to Macworld continues to be a busy one, this time with a conversation with Kyle Wiens, co-founder and CEO of iFixit and the main man of the feature presentation “iFixit live! The Teardown Experts Show Off Apple’s Hardware – From the Inside Out.” Kyle discusses how he got started taking things apart and why being able to do so is important part of evaluating the lifespan and viability of electronics. Apple’s design and manufacturing decisions have impacted consumers’ ability to maintain and repair their devices; Kyle talks about the trends he sees and what they mean, Apple’s affect on the industry and how they compare to others, and how he and his team will attempt live repairs on audience-provided devices at his Macworld session.

MacVoices #1106: The Road to Macworld – Anders Grunnet-Jepsen On How The iWavit Can Remote Control Almost Anything

Taking at look at The Road to Macworld from a brand new exhibitor’s perspective, Anders Grunnet-Jepsen of ThinkOptics talks about why they are coming to Macworld to show off the iWaveit for iPhone and iPad. There are plenty of universal remote solutions out there, even some for the iPhone and iPad, but none quite like iWavit. Going beyond just your home theater, iWaveit can control virtually anything that has remote capabilities. Anders gives us an overview of the hardware and software solution that lets you take advantage of pre-programed remotes, other users’ creations and even build your very own virtual remote to fit your equipment and how you use it.
