Jim Tierney, Chief Executive Anarchist at Digital Anarchy, is back to give us a look at the soon-to-be launched Transcriptive.com. Transcriptive has been providing transcriptions to Adobe Premier users from within the application, but now, the web site version will extend part of that solution to users of other NLEs. Jim outlines what can be uploaded, what you get back, and how it will integrate in with your edit. Searching, a variety of AI and human transcription options, and collaboration options are all features available to a broader audience. Jim outlines how it works, when it will be available, and then provides some thoughts on augmented reality vs. virtual reality.

Just when you thought you had heard the last of Macstock 2018, Mike Potter is back to let us know that the videos of the presentations from the event are coming online quickly. They are available to both attendees as part of their admission, and also as a Digital Pass for those who couldn’t make Macstock. Mike talks about how the recordings were made, the bonus material that is included, and how you go about getting access. We also talk about the theme for Macstock 2019, what it means, and why it should generate some unusual presentations.

Michael Potter  is the Executive Producer of For Mac Eyes Only, and the organizer of the annual Macstock Conference and Expo. Mike’s love-affair for all things Apple began in his Junior High’s Library playing Lemonade Stand on a pair of brand new Apple ][+ computers. His penchant for Apple gear continued to be nurtured by the public school system when, in High School, he was hired as a lab supervisor to help run the Apple ][e lab for his fellow students and their Print Shop needs. Then, further still, in college he often opted to help a friend with her Computer Graphics coursework instead of focusing on his own studies, but only because it helped get him closer to the Mac-lab.

Chuck La Tournous has had some health challenges, and explains how Apple technology helped him make changes to his life that addressed them. From determination of the issues to making changes in diet and exercise, Chuck’s story is not only inspirational, but also a blueprint for those who want to make changes of their own, and how the Apple Watch and iPhone can help achieve the objective.

Kelly Guimont is a longtime Apple geek, sitting down (on a telephone book) in front of an Apple IIe in 1983. She can still hear the ticking of the ImageWriter. Thanks to the miracle of the adjustable leg desk, she no longer needs the phonebook. Kelly writes for The Mac Observer, is co-host of The Aftershow, makes regular appearances on the Daily Observations Podcast and the British Tech Network and yet still has more to say which she saves for Twitter and Micro.blog.

At Macstock, we get to follow up with Daniel Prinssen, last year’s youngest attendee. Daniel tells us what he did with some substantial hardware that he took home from Macstock, the status of his YouTube channel, and why he has revised what he wants from The Apple Store.
