With Federico on the beach, Myke and Stephen discuss Larry Ellison, the future of Apple and iPhone rumors.
I was, indeed, at the beach, from where I posted my Editorial review. I finally had time to listen to the episode myself, and there are some good topics that I’ll revisit soon. You also shouldn’t miss Myke’s version of “Ferragosto”.
This week, Myke, Federico and Stephen re-visit the Developer Center outage, then talk about Google’s apps on iOS and Stephen’s Nexus 7. Wrapping up, they move on to discuss tablet usage and some awesome apps.
I loved the discussion about Google’s new approach to building its own ecosystem on iOS through inter-app communication and callbacks, which is something that Apple keeps ignoring. Towards the end, I also explain why I like working from my iPad more than I do on the Mac.

This week, everyone’s favorite international trio discuss a truckload of follow-up, then move on to talk about Apple’s developer site and quarterly results then Google’s new Nexus 7 and Chromecast TV dongle. Myke interrupts the show to find Federico’s alt rock band on MySpace. To wrap up, Chris Bowler files a report on Cloud.typography and Federico gives a tip about bookmarklets in Chrome for iOS.
Without a doubt, the episode recorded in the most original location to date. Get it here.
This week, the boys discuss Nokia, Logic Pro X, tinkering, and re-evaluating workflows in light of new OS releases.
It was a fun episode and I liked the in-depth discussion on workflows and pasta-eating habits. I promise I will remember to properly record audio the next time (sorry for the poor quality on my end this week). You can get the episode here.
This week on The Prompt, Myke and Stephen discuss Federico’s absence, Myke’s recent government questioning and then cameras and photo management with correspondent Shawn Blanc.
I couldn’t join the team yesterday, but I’ll be back next week. It’s good to know that Myke can survive a government questioning. You can get the episode here.
With the summer heat beating down upon them, Federico and Myke support Stephen during his time of confession, have a memorial service for their very first iPhones, discuss RSS, fashion and more.
Also: a Keyboard Maestro/AppleScript tip towards the end. You can get the episode here, or subscribe via iTunes.
This week, the 5by5 delegates to the UN from England, Italy and Tennessee gather to discuss some follow up, Windows and the Apple cult.
I also got to talk about Nintendo and Steve Ballmer. You can get the episode here, or subscribe via iTunes.
The first episode of our new podcast is now available.
This week, Myke, Stephen and Federico gather from across the globe to discuss WWDC, beekeeping and some of their new favorite apps.
You can get the episode here. You can follow the show on Twitter and App.net, and subscribe via RSS or on iTunes.
A few months ago, my friend Myke Hurley asked me if I wanted to launch a new podcast. There are many tech podcasts these days – maybe too many – and, back then, I didn’t know what I wanted to do. I have thought about this very deeply, and I’ve come to this conclusion: the great thing about the Internet is that everyone is free to produce their own content, because the readers will eventually decide what they like and what they don’t. Or, in our case, the listeners: today, Myke, Stephen, and I are announcing The Prompt.
From Stephen’s blog post:
Each week, we’ll be looking at not only the news, but the ecosystem and culture around Apple and its products.
The real twist is what we do with guests. Instead of the three of us running around trying to cover everything, we’re building an army of correspondents.
I am extremely grateful for the opportunity, and I look forward to beginning this new adventure with Myke and Stephen. I realize that there are several podcasts about Apple and technology nowadays; my hope is that, like MacStories, 512 Pixels, and 70Decibels, The Prompt will distinguish itself because of quality, not trends. Our listeners will decide.
We haven’t recorded the first episode of The Prompt yet, but, when we’ll do after WWDC, you’ll find it on the 5by5 network. Here’s something cool: if you subscribe to the 512 Podcast today, you’ll be automatically migrated over to The Prompt feed when it launches. And, to kick off things properly, you can listen to the just-posted penultimate episode of the 512 Podcast, where I was invited to announce The Prompt and discuss iOS 7 and WWDC predictions.
I have big expectations for The Prompt, and I hope that you’ll pardon my accent. You can follow @_theprompt on Twitter, and check out the beautiful artwork by Jory Raphael above.
