Climbing the Table


I try climbing up and down on the table in front of the TV. Will I succeed without hurting myself? iTune in to find out!

By the way, it looks like I was way off on my Super Bowl pick. Congratulations to the Pittsburgh Steelers and all their fans. Look out for the Philadelphia Eagles next year! (maybe...)

Also in the news are rumors of yet another new video iPod. From what I've heard, they're thinking of making it a bigger screen and that it would also be a touch-screen. So it may be goodbye to the click-wheel, or perhaps there will be a 'virtual' click-wheel on the screen. We'll see.

Don't forget to tell your friends about me, and subscribe through iTunes!

Preparing to Go to the City


Before going to the city, I look around the front of our house and explore the wonders of our car and Christmas lights. You'll notice that I'm sporting a new Philadelphia Eagles knit cap that I got for Christmas. Who do I think is going to win Super Bowl XL? It's a tough choice. My initial gut feeling is that the Pittsburgh Steelers will win because they've been there before. However, Seattle Seahawks coach Mike Holmgren is no stranger to Super Bowl success. I'm going to go out on a limb and say the Seahawks win, 28-10. They beat the Eagles so bad this season that I'm hoping that Monday Night Football loss was justified by the fact that they were a stepping stone for the Super Bowl champs.

Sorry if this video podcast is so dark. My daddy tried to adjust the brightness and contrast as best as he could.

Yay! I'm in the iTunes Top 25!


Well, don't get too excited. My daddy switched my podcast category from 'Arts & Entertainment' to 'Family'. So I checked the iTunes Music Store this morning and saw that my podcast was ranked NUMBER 23 (in the Family section). There was a bit of a boost in subscribers according to Feedburner.com.

Yesterday was an eventful day at Apple Computers. At their MacWorld Expo, CEO Steve Jobs introduced their first Mac computers with the Intel Processors. Among them were a new iMac and a new laptop called the MacBook Pro. With these new Intel Duo Core processors, they're saying that the MacBook Pro runs 4X FASTER. We'll see if these claims are true in the near future. Some cool features about the MacBook Pro include the built-in iSight camera as well as an Apple Remote for running Front Row.

My guess is that Apple is phasing out the Powerbook and iBook names from their notebook product line. They want to make sure they get the word 'Mac' in each product name. So I think the MacBook Pro will replace the Powerbook, and later this year we'll see a MacBook consumer-level model that will replace the iBook.

They also released a new iLife '06 suite. My daddy and I use iLife a lot to create our podcasts. The new GarageBand looks like it will have a lot of features that will be fun for podcasters to play with.

iTunes was also updated to version 6.0.2. Nothing major here. They created a mini-store at the bottom of the iTunes window which is a little annoying. My daddy had a tough time figuring how to disable it as I'm sure a lot of other people will to.

Here's how to turn off that mini-store:
Go to the Edit Menu and select 'Hide MiniStore' (The keyboard shortcut is Shift-Apple-M)

They also have a little button on the bottom right to Show/Hide MiniStore, but it looks exactly like the Show/Hide Artwork on the left hand side. So it's not exactly the most intuitive thing in the world. Anyway, how many times have you used those buttons on the bottom right hand corner of iTunes?!?

Well, there's your Nio-Mac-Tip-of-the-Day!

Backyard Nio


No snow in this video podcast. This short 51 second video was shot in my backyard during the warm month of September. The grass was green, and I didn't have to wear a jacket. It looks like the temperature is going to be in the 60s for December 25th. Oh well, maybe a white Christmas next year.

Special hello to Ryan from North Philly who sent this Nio TV mail:
Hey, I was looking on iTunes for an Eagles podcast and somehow I got your Nio tv thing. You've got an adorable kid!

Thanks, Ryan. Good to know those 'hidden' keywords in my feedburner feed work. Heh..heh...
Oh well, hard to be an Eagles fan this year, but here's to next year!

Let It Snow


It wasn't the first time that I had seen snow, but it was the first time that I was old enough to get out and play in it. Mommy let me out even though it was cold, but snow doesn't come very often here in Oklahoma.
