Latest Show: Layout Tool Disguised as Aperture's Book Making Function

Aperture 2.1 includes a more versatile book-making tool than we saw in earlier versions. So powerful in fact, that calling it a book making tool is really selling it short. It's actually a flexible layout application with some very useful output options. In this podcast, Derrick Story talks with Joe Schorr and tries to uncover all the hidden gems buried in Aperture 2.1.

Latest Show: Finding Your Voice

We have three pieces this week that hover around the theme of finding your voice. Google CEO Eric Schmidt talks to John Battelle about the corporate voice that Google has taken on. Moshe Cohen is a clown who performs using his voice but no words. In many of his missions, including Clowns Without Borders USA, he cheers people up but also leaves them with a deeper lesson. I've also remixed a piece by David Battino from the Digital Media Insider that looks at how much computer voices have improved. This is the last episode for 2006. (DTF 11-27-2006: 25 minutes, 55 seconds)
