Hello Tripple Click Home.
I love reading about my phone but was disappointed that you were not thrilled as I was by the new App Braille Touch. I have trouble writing with Flexy and find Braille Touch so exciting. I can text away and bore more people more easily.

Hi Happy Apple People,

Love the way you guys have developed the Triple Click Home podcast. I had a quick question about backing up my Mac. The idea of bootable backups intrigues me, and the two most talked-about programs for accomplishing this are super duper and Carbon Copy Cloner. I used CCC for awhile, but missed the donation window and am trying to decide between the two. What do you guys use, and what are your recommendations?

Excellent interview with the developer of TapTap See.

I downloaded the product in its first version and haven’t really played much with it. The one thing I want to try though when traveling is to see if it can recognize individual buttons on a soda machine. Granted, there are some standard layouts but it would be nice to learn about a machine, especially if I’m spending time in a location and using the machine a lot.

I’ll be interested to hear if anyone has tried this and will let you all know if it works when I travel next week.
