Email to upgrade Dropbox?
Apple announces iCloud and all the storage space you will get for free and the very next day I get an email from Dropbox saying I can upgrade to more space. Coincidence? Irony? Panic?
Still reeling from WWDC?
Still trying to make sense of everything Apple unveiled and how to use it? Toucharcade has a nice roundup of the features. I have to say, the more I read and understand all the features the more excited I get. And I’m excited because this pushes the boundaries. It shakes things up. It will make the other vendors bring something new to the table and get ever better ideas in motion. I’m just as anxious to see what the "response" will be to all these features.

iPad as a game console? Indeed.
So the new Airplay Mirroring, will that allow you to play all your iPad games on your TV if you have an Apple TV hooked up to it? From what I can tell it does and that means you have a pretty kick ass game console in your hand. Sure, this will only work with iPad 2 and Apple TV, but what’s the big deal? Soon (by Christmas), there will be millions upon millions of iPad 2’s. And millions of game players. And after paying all that money for an iPad what’s another $100 to connect it to your TV?

You get 5GB free and your pictures, music, subscriptions and lots of others things don’t count toward that limit. Plus, it works on iOS5, Macs and PCs. Holy kick in the Dropbox Batman! Seems like Apple took a shot at Dropbox, Live, Amazon Cloud and lots of other apps in one mighty swoop. And as I was discussing this with a friend, depending on how you set this up, your iDevices could in fact become Facebook. You could all subscribe to an iCloud account and whenever you update pictures everyone gets copies. That could be pretty interesting. iTunes Match sounds pretty neat as well. Pay $25 a […]
