Last Monday, Apple introduced its new service which soon replaces DotMac, called MobileMe. In my eyes, this is a fantastic service. You constantly have all your mails, calendars & contacts up to date. You have on all your Macs & PCs, but also on your iPhone and in a brilliant web interface. In addition to that you also have 20GB of online storage. They could have reduced the price of 99$ a year a little bit, but for such a great service it’s okay. I can’t wait till it’s out.
For all those of you who want to get live information of the this year’s Keynote at the WWDC in San Francisco, I have summarized a few remarkable website that report live:
Engadget
Crunchgear
Gizmodo
Apple, we’re all waiting! 
After years, Google has finally changed its favicon. But what is this? It looks terrible. 
I really like the new iTunes TV ad, featured by the new Coldplay Single “Viva La Vida”. It’s different in comparison to the other iTunes ads, but I like the new effects and the style of the video.

I promised you to give a full review after some time of how I like working with a mac.
As you probably know, I was a Windows user for more than 5 years. 3 months ago, I switched to the mac. First of all: Why? I normally pray: Never change a running system. But the question is, was my windows system running? Yes, it was. But how? I can just say that the windows does everything a mac does, but the mac does it a lot better. All the behavior is just different, and in my eyes just better and well thought-out. Many people ask me, if it was difficult to switch from a pc to a mac. For sure, you need some time to get everything known, but after a few weeks I was actually asking myself: Why didn’t I switch a lot earlier, or: How did I ever live without a mac? And as I hear, many other people tell me the same. But what’s it really, that makes a macintosh different? Well, it’s how everything works. You don’t have to install hundreds of freeware software, antivirus software, software to do this, software to do that. All you need to have on a computer, except for the specialized software is already on it. Basically, the only software package that I installed, beside iLife and iWork was the Adobe CreativeSuite3, a coding software and Skype. One thing about Windows Vista that I really don’t like, in comparison to the mac, is that the operating system sometimes gets more attention than the application you are currently working in. Vista is full packed with graphical stuff and effects that are maybe nice, but in the length of time they all really distract you from work. The mac just works. No speed problems at all. I am really happy with my mac, also after around three months of working with it.
