http://daringfireball.net/2008/06/iphone_3g_upgrade
-
Rated stars out of 5.
- Details
Gruber walks through the "should I upgrade to the new iPhone," dilemma, one I'm currently having, myself. He correctly points out that the only real noteworthy advantages are faster networking and GPS. He doesn't mention the flush headphone jack, … More

Daring Fireball: The Unsatisfying State of Twitter Web Clients for the iPhone
http://daringfireball.net/2008/04/twitter_web_clients_for_the_iphone
-
Rated stars out of 5.

Gruber compares web clients for Twitter on the iPhone. Personally, I think Thincloud is pretty good (and my favorite of the bunch), but it still hasn't been enough to make me give up Twitter over SMS. Gruber says Twitter over SMS is too annoying -… More

As much trouble as I've had with sshfs being slow as balls, I think I'm going to splure for this $29 app, which Gruber gives a glorius review.

Daring Fireball: Non-Top-Posting Reply Scripts for Apple Mail
http://daringfireball.net/2007/07/non_top_posting_scripts
-
Rated stars out of 5.
- Details
If you're one of those people (like Gruber) who hates top-posting but wants (or *has*) to use Apple Mail for some reason, John has written and released a couple of clever AppleScripts to invoke bottom-posting, instead. Personally, I've never m… More

Daring Fireball: Rip This Joint
http://daringfireball.net/2007/03/rip_this_joint
-
Rated stars out of 5.
- Details
I mostly agree with what Gruber has to say in a response to criticism over his defense of Apple's TV spot. And, it's well-written, as you'd expect from John. Tangentially, I think one of the points of confusion over all this rip-off-or-not bus… More

Would Apple Mix DRM and Non-DRM Music at the iTunes Store?
http://daringfireball.net/2007/02/drm_and_non_drm_music
-
Rated stars out of 5.
- Details
Gruber has a nice article on how Apple might deal with the UI complexity of selling both DRM'd and non-DRM'd music on iTunes. He suggests a similar solution I've been touting -- just don't mention it by default. Some songs will be DRM protected an… More

This sounds like a good one. Lopp made a great moderator last year, and his panel this year includes FeedDemon creator Nick Bradburry, Mint man Shaun Inman, Daring Fireball's John Gruber, and one yet-unnamed Mac developer. These are all guys who a… More

Reading Between the Lines of Steve Jobs's 'Thoughts on Music'
http://daringfireball.net/2007/02/reading_between_the_lines
-
Rated stars out of 5.
- Details
Gruber provides his usual insightful commentary on Job's DRM essay. The most interesting bit, to me, is that Nettwerk, an indie label that has some big-name artists like Avril and The Barenaked Ladies, is already selling DRM-free music on eMusic a… More

Rated stars out of 5.

Gruber and Cabel Sasser get together after the keynote for an hour-long chat about the iPhone and other Apple goodness. By the way, if you've never heard Cabel speak live, you've got to see this guy. He's incredibly exuberant and always laughing a… More
