Steve Sande, Kelly Hodgkins and Dave Caolo have founded Apple World Today, a site that brings the best of the old The Unofficial Apple Weblog over to a new site with new features and focus. The trio discuss what was involved in getting the site up so quickly, the long list of things necessary for a modern web presence, and some of the tools they are relying on. News, product reviews, opinions and, eventually, a community are all part of the mix of this promising new presence on the Apple web.
