Take Control of Screen Sharing in Lion by Glenn Fleishman

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Highly-targeted title; up to the Take Control series’ usual, high standards. Takes a very practical typical-use-case approach.

The folks at PictureCode have released a 64-bit version of their outstanding Noise Ninja plug-in for Aperture 3. They didn’t waste any time getting this into users’ hands.

Even better, when I hadn’t seen any mention of a forth-coming upgrade on PictureCode’s web site after Aperture 3 let me know it would have to run Noise Ninja under 32-bit mode, I emailed them to ask about their plans.

Not only did Bill Smith, their senior programmer, get right back to me, letting me know a release was imminent — he attached a beta version of the plug-in.

How cool is that?

Since you can’t find things on the Avid web site, here’s a link to the codecs for Mac:

Official Google Mac Blog: Google Calendar now supports Apple iCal: should be worth looking into.

A great site full of useful typographical advice. And not just for lawyers.
