Was anyone else suprised/amused to see a screenshot from a Windows machine here?
Lol. Just noticed that. XD

That and the fact that you can't see the URL. Of all things web pages would be the easiest to fake and really get those macheads buzzing.:rolleyes: I don't know, just something that crossed my mind.

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

OH...MY...GOD!

I didn't share many people's sympathy the first time around with Watson, as I considered it a random lightning strike, and life is full of examples of bad things that (randomly) happen to good people.

But...if it happens again...either:

1) Apple hates these guys
2) I don't want to live next door to these guys (bad luck!)

and in either case (which we'll probably never know which is true), my sympathy will follow.

Can you imagine, from their perspective, having stuck around after the bitterness of the Watson affair, to have it happen again?

RAGE!

edit: These are the Watson (not Konfabulator) guys.

If iWeb is true web hosting, that would ge breat.

If it is some .mac add on , it is pretty lame.
Yeah... um, hahaha. I'm dumb. :( Umm... is there a program like Apache for Mac? Or can Apache be for Mac? Wow. I'm so stupid. I'll go sit blushing in my little loser corner.:( But seriously, can someone answer my question please? :eek:

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

maybe they will outsource .mac to Google and are working with Google on a media device & service based on a fusion of the Mac mini, .mac and various Google services such as Gmail, Picasa, Talk and Blogger. Apple for the client side, Google for the server-side.

Start your "Perosnal Web Sharing" in your Sys Prefs.

Then type in your brower:
127.0.0.1

What do you see? ;)

Um. Excuse me? XD

the web in iWeb reminded me of Spiderman. in a pervious keynote stev-o had the ceo of sony onstage and they were discussing how they were going to pair up in the future doing "who knows what"

Sony is obsessed with spiderman (hell even the PS3 logo has the same font as the spiderman logo). i can see it happening

Spiderman 3 is going to rocccckckk!!!111111

I wrote the [old] Apple mailing list post that has been linked by several others.

http://lists.apple.com/archives/Web-dev/2004/Nov/msg00130.html

It was part of a comparison of web programming languages-- specifically, ColdFusion MX (CF/CFMX/CFML) vs more granular languages like PHP, ASP, Java, etc.

I believe it is much easier to create and maintain web sites using CF.

To support this belief, I suggested that a package (iWeb) could be created that allowed beginners to create an instant web site. While easy to learn/use, iWeb would allow users to create more robust sites if they had the need/desire.

It could be done with wizards and templates as well as open source web applications for shopping carts, drill-down database, blogging, etc.

The theory, being, that the provided apps would illustrate good program design and implementation-- so that a user could start quickly/easily and stop whenever he wanted, with a well-documented, well-designed, maintainable web site.

The site could be hosted on the user's computer, or a web hosting service-- or even tied in with a service like .Mac

At the time, I even created a simple web page explaining the concept (attached).

As you can see, the i in iWeb stands for instantaneous! (seemed like a pretty good name at the time).

A basic site could be hosted on the user's computer or something like .Mac.

To host more than a basic web site would have required ColdFusion MX and a DB Server. Likely, these sites would be hosted on a hosting service.

If .Mac were expanded to offer the necessary programming and db services at a competitive price it would be a reasonable option.

Wow.

I'd say 80% that this will actually happen. It'll probably be marketed as a way to "bring your digital media together and share it on the intenet". We'll probably see HTML exporting, but it WILL be integrated with .Mac, which will probably see an update or price reduction.

As for GarageBand, it seems like the headline feature will be that you can make music videos and video podcasts without involving iMovie.

EDIT: 80% because it may be a fake planted by Apple.

Looks like you like to illegally copy dvds?

:p
 
Now even a CNet has an article on this, they basically tell that Macrumors.com has posted screenshots. Why are those news sites referring to rumor pages, can you call that journalism?

Screen shots are posted on this site.

or am I missing the joke?
 
I hope iWeb is an easy to use website designer...this would be great timing because I just got the urge to learn basic HTML and website design and with iWeb my dreams can come true... oh boy :p

If you go here:

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

Look at the source code and it says:

meta name="Generator" content="Cocoa HTML Writer"
meta name="CocoaVersion" content="824.23"

This is not on any other apple.com page I can find... and I have never heard of a Cocoa HTML Writer....

EDIT: a search on Google for Cocoa HTML Writer brings up nothing in that word order (7 pages but none of them have the words together...)


A while back, I thought that as well. But if you create an html page using TextEdit (which, if you'll remember, will save html now), you'll see that the source code says something about Cocoa HTML Writer (or at least it used to the last time I checked, which admittedly was several months ago).

Perhaps they are working on an HTML editor that will be incorporated at system level just like Safari Webkit. Then the framework could be used by TextEdit, Pages, and whatever else Apple decides to create. The trend at Apple over the past few years seems to have been geared toward including frameworks in the operating system that can be utilized by any application, like it's currently sub-par RAW converter.

I have no problem with Apple creating an html editor, as long as it creates standards-compliant, table-free, XHTML/CSS markup. Simple, Clean, Semantic.
