iLife'06 CONFIRMED!

rOckAPE · Jan 5, 2006

Scroll to the bottom and to the right under "Additional Resources". Little slip on their part?

Pretty much expected iLife would get an update. Good catch, cub reporter. <--- shamelessly taken from BV

Here's to the Crazy Ones

SilentPanda · Jan 5, 2006

Uploaded a screenie in case they fix it. The link just goes to apple.com/ilife though...

Suspicious... the Google cache version says iLife 05, so this hasn't always been there:

http://72.14.207.104/search?q=cache:pyT36dhl5swJ:www.apple.com/support/garageband/podcasts/+&hl=en

Also, have a look at:

http://www.apple.com/support/garageband/podcasts/recording.html

It renders strangely for me (no CSS?) and then has this text, which is different to the main iLife support pages:

iLife Community Discussions

Our discussion boards are filled with Mac experts. Ask a question, answer a question or simply read what other users have to say.

iWeb
iPhoto
iMovie
iDVD
GarageBand

iWeb???

I can hear the Steve rumbling down the hallway already

richard_uk · Jan 5, 2006

I guess they're up to some kind of maintenance or preparation because

http://discussions.apple.com/

gives 'We're sorry, Apple Discussions are temporarily unavailable. The system should be back on-line soon.'.

liketom · Jan 5, 2006

iWeb how original

i was hoping they would buy out realmac as well

all good though

DavidLeblond · Jan 5, 2006

"We're sorry, Apple Discussions are temporarily unavailable. We're busy firing the HELL out of someone for posting mention of iWeb before its time. Oh hell! Now I did it too! Stay tuned for a link to my resume!"

Anyway, iWeb sounds a might bit interesting. Lets hope its more than some .Mac attachment.

brepublican · Jan 5, 2006

iWeb? What the duece??

Lacero · Jan 5, 2006

God, I hope Steve Jobs doesn't demonstrate iWeb the way he did with iTools. BORING! Perchance, what could it be? Perhaps a new Apple-designed blogging tool for .Mac users?

strange.. normally spottings of an ilife 06 would be a mistake, but the iweb is incredibly odd.. who knows?

or maybe a subscription service.. to something like itools.. i hope they aren't trying to compete with google..

I guess no one will be surprised when SJ announces iLife 06 next Tuesday. However, it's un-Apple-like to confirm an announced product like that.

SpaceMagic · Jan 5, 2006

Remember HomePage in the OS X Public Beta? It was a nifty WYSIWYG app which never made it into 10.0! Who knows? An Adobe-Macromedia Dreamweaver beater!?

Here's the CSS bad page for people to see:

nahhh it will be a easy app like rapidweaver -

more templates more movie options blogs and podcasts and more group site templates

arrr i love it when apple slips up on there website

FoxyKaye · Jan 5, 2006

Somewhere, down a long corridor at 1 Infinite Loop, a head is rolling...

Interesting - if true, looks like iLife '06 is poised to offer several new features instead of feature upgrades to existing apps.

GFLPraxis · Jan 5, 2006

An Apple easy website creator, perhaps? Sweet.

emutree · Jan 5, 2006

Weird though - I definitely would've poised it as an iWork component. And as having a lot better of a name than iWeb (seriously - maybe the dude that used to be responsible for naming stuff quit: recently we've gotten Bonjour and iWeb??). I'm excited for it nevertheless, although I feel bad for the Karelia guys - they've been working on their Sandvox app since last summer and have kept delaying it, and now that they're bringing it out at the end of January it'll come out just in time to be trampled by Apple.

AtHomeBoy_2000 · Jan 5, 2006

I have an odd feeling that iWeb is a "Front Page" type application. Nothing complicated, just simple web creation. With that being said, it wouldnt suprise me if it ONLY worked with .Mac, but I thnk that would be stupid.

Yeh! Names like: Final Cut Pro were great.. Final Cut Express was ok, but now the rumoured, Final Cut Extreme! Haha! Any more adjectives?

iWeb - I'm thinking a Freeway type app. One which really allows easy easy layout. Perhaps they were perfecting iWork (as its HTML output is awful) and thought.. hey! this would make a great app. So they've rolled out an iWork for Webpages rather than documents.

Final Cut XTREEM!!1!

Oooo.. I hope iWeb is more than a .mac attachment. I don't do .mac, but I would LOVE to upgrade to iLife '06. iPhoto is getting on my last nerve...

SiliconAddict · Jan 5, 2006

They should just call it iWant.

iWeb could be anything from a webpage designer to some cool online sharing utility. Hmmm could Apple be rolling out a P2P app?!?! Naa.

i reckon too.

Imagine a simple apple app that would enable even the most illiterate webpage creators to make their own site.

Definatly a gap in ilife for that.

AtHomeBoy_2000 · Jan 5, 2006

I did a google search of Apples website, I came up with this...
http://lists.apple.com/archives/Web-dev/2004/Nov/msg00130.html

Finally, some thoughts on the future:
The next big thing for the average computer user could well be putting all his "stuff" on the web, so he can share it with friends & family-- music, pictures, video, thoughts, family trees, etc. Let's call this iWeb. Apple has a good start with this with its .Mac offering. But many users will want to go beyond the canned capabilities of .Mac -- maybe even run a small home business on the web.
What is needed is a set of programs that do the basic iWeb functions. These must be written in a language that is easy to read/learn/understand/modify by non-programmers.

Ugh.. but do we really want them to be able to create websites?

(I KEED, I KEED! I'm one of them.)

p0intblank · Jan 5, 2006

And the madness begins!

Anyway, it has to be Apple version of a Web site creator. They already tackled this somewhat with .mac, giving users the ability to show off their photos easily from within iPhoto. I look forward to the results!

iLife'06 CONFIRMED!
