Show notes
Adam Engst has been working hard to finalize and launch a re-design of the TidBITS web site, and gives us an in-depth look at why the project was necessary to remain relevant. The new site is brand new and built from the ground up, but Adam and crew have worked hard to make sure that none of the legacy information contained on the site was lost. He tells us about the challenges that had to be overcome, the compromises that had to be made, and why he still feels the need to apologize to users for some things that were just not possible. Adam also talks about some of the features that still might change, and why.
MacVoices Magazine, our free magazine on Flipboard, helps you do more with your Apple tech.
