Are People Still Lining Up for the iPhone?

July 23rd, 2008 · 5 Comments


Apple Store, Michigan Avenue, Chicago

I can’t think of what else this line would be for. I walked past the Apple store a few times yesterday and the line only got longer, until there were about 30 people wrapped around the other side of the building.

Did You Think You’d Seen the Last of Ruby?

Actually, I did. But today my iBook started misbehaving and after 3 1/2 hours at the Apple Store’s Genius Bar, it had to be sent in for repair. Luckily I was able to back up my data to my external hard drive. It’s hard to get used to Ruby now: her slow speed, her rounded monitor, her browser crashing when it tries to play Flash, her keyboard, her big ass taking up all the space on my desk. But I’m glad she was still hanging around. I’d just spoken to Matt about selling her. Good thing I didn’t yet.

There must be something in the air because Dallas spent 2 full days of the weekend rebuilding his desktop when it crashed on Saturday and Killian’s laptop died this past weekend too.

Roger Ebert @ The Apple Store

Roger Ebert :: The Apple Store, Magnificent Mile, Chicago

Long time Mac user and film critic Roger Ebert was at the Apple Store tonight talking about how digital cameras are revolutionizing the film industry as part of Apple’s “Works on a Mac” speaker series. I came in late so I missed in introductory commentary and the first film he showed. For most of the rest of the next hour Roger spoke about specific movies and how they were filmed on a low, low budget and with a digital camera.

Last night I sort of planned to go to the New York City Photobloggers event at the SoHo Apple Store, but sort of just wanted to go home and crawl into bed. I ended up stopping by on the way home and staying for the whole thing. It was fun to see the people behind the NYC photoblogs I read explain what they do and why they do it and what their techniques are. There were a ton of people there, so many that the Apple Store staff was getting annoyed. Some people I knew others I met for the first time. Jen baked cookies the night before and shared them with Tien and Dahlia and I (they were delicious!). Also, nice to meet Chris G. after the event. Thanks for introducing yourself, dude. And good to see WhatISee + girlfriend again.

After the presentation everyone headed over to Merc Bar. Jason Kottke was there and I knew it’d be my last chance at meeting the ever-elusive man behind the site, so I introduced myself. He said that he didn’t know if he should even be speaking to me. He’s still sore about the whole tator tot hotdish thing. It was good to see my nerdy friends one last time – Dahlia, Jen, Jake, Corie, Mike – you’ll have to let me know if you’re ever in Chicago! And, Jake, I’m going to hold you to that “If it doesn’t work out in Chicago you can stay with us” drunken offer you made!
