  • Did you know? Linking entries and box sets

    Did you know that you can link text files, PDFs, movies, images and URLs to a Pedia entry? To do so, select the entry in the table view, make sure the info view at the bottom is showing (you can toggle it with the ‘i’ button in the toolbar) and drag whatever file or URL…

  • Did you know? QuickPick

    Computers are getting more and more reliable but backing up your data on a regular basis is still vital. Unfortunately, it’s one of those things we often forget until it’s too late, like going to the dentist. If you’re a .Mac user then you can delegate that hassle to Backup 3, the aptly named backup program…

  • Did you know? Pedia group in Address Book

    Now that your friends have seen your cool Gamepedia collection, they might want to borrow a few games.

  • Quick Look, Cover Flow and Smart Folders

    With Leopard finally loose in the wild, the feature that’s caught our attention the most so far is Quick Look. The description of Quick Look, previewing documents without opening them, doesn’t sound all that impressive; after all, that’s what programs are for – to view documents. However, it’s when you consider how Quick Look integrates…

  • Great Users

    We are the quiet ones, the shy ones, the reserved ones, the blogless in a world of posts. Here we are trying to change that with our new WordPress installation. Daniel Jalkut convinced us that if lawyers have blogs then all Mac developers should as well. But in the years that we have been without a…
