HBO programs available in the iTunes Store

fotc 20080513 203419 HBO programs available in the iTunes Store

HBO and Apple made the big announcement today that shows like “The Sopranos,”"Sex and the City,” “Deadwood” and “Rome,” are now available for purchase and download on the iTunes Store. Personally, I’m more excited about grabbing episodes of “Flight of the Conchords” and “The Wire” …or at least I would be if they were available in Canadian iTunes Store.

Television shows purchased and downloaded from the iTunes Store can be viewed on a Mac or PC, iPod nano with video, iPod classic, iPod touch, fifth generation iPod, iPhone or on a widescreen TV with Apple TV. “Sex and the City,”"The Wire” and “Flight of the Conchords” are USD$1.99 per episode, and “The Sopranos,”"Deadwood” and “Rome” are priced at USD$2.99 per episode. iTunes customers can also choose to purchase entire seasons of their favorite programs.

Use Automator to create and upload a time lapse video to Flickr


Today’s announcement that Flickr now supports video got me to thinking about a tutorial I wrote recently and I decided to jazz it up a bit with some Flickr integration.

In one of my last appearances on The Lab with Leo Laporte, I explained how Automator could be used to create a simple time lapse video using your Mac’s built-in iSight camera. That was pretty cool on its own, but what if you could get Automator to get that video to your Flickr Photostream somehow? You can and it’s pretty cool!

Check out the new and improved tutorial!

Note:Thanks to Ryan Yewell for giving me the time lapse video idea!

Don’t look now, but there are new Mac portables afoot

It’s as if Apple didn’t want anyone to notice, but of course many have (1, 2, 3, 4, 5). Apple’s line of MacBooks and MacBook Pros were updated this morning without celebration or announcement.

The MacBook now has the 64-bit Santa Rosa architecture and is available with Core 2 Duo processors at 2.0GHz and 2.2GHz. It also has a faster GMA X3100 graphics processor but remains at USD$1,099 (2.0GHz/80GB/Combo), USD$1,299 (2.2GHz/120GB/SuperDrive), and USD$1,499 (2.2Ghz/160GB/SuperDrive).
