NLMA interview with the man behind Growl, Adium,...: Chris Forsythe
My main brawl with open source applications in the end always boils down to the same thing. They're ugly and often not very intuitive. I'm going to get mail about this one, I know... but I'm right! I just don't see an open source operating system getting the same level of consistency as OS X for instance. And the advantage of a consistent OS is that apps that run on that OS naturally inherit that consistency. But once in a while I'm wrong. And boy am I glad I'm wrong about this app.

This episode is sponsored by the nice people of Plasq. Don't know who that is? Yes you do... They make the coolest, most innovative-and-funny-at-the-same-time app out there: Comic Life. Go and check it out at Plasq.com. It's a super cool comic book creation app. You might go and say 'why would I make a comic book?'. Well don't see it as just a comic book creation tool, it's a new and original way of distributing your pictures, and it's fun to work with it, but I won't talk about that now... I'll have to review them one of these days. Thanks for supporting the show you people.
It's like tracing woodworms in the old flooring. You don't really see them, but if you listen very careful, you'll hear them gnaw away at the wood. But not for long, no sir! There's Little Snitch. And all apps that try to phone home behind your back... snitched! Waaaaaaahahahahah!
yes (win one of two licenses for this app.)
