Is the Apple iPad a game changer… or will it ruin Apple’s hot streak? In an article for the Occidental Weekly, I give my impressions of Apple’s latest “magical” device. Here’s the article lead:

Last Wednesday, Apple unveiled the iPad, a top-secret product that they have been working on for years. Tech-lovers across the globe eagerly awaited this unveiling only to be disappointed: Apple’s latest innovation is… a giant iPhone.

In an article published in this week’s Occidental Weekly, I look at Apple’s new iPod lineup. Apple added very little to their devices… but they can now compete in some crazy new areas. Here’s the article lead:

Apparently, your iPod can do anything. At least that is what Apple is saying about their new iPod lineup, which they announced Wednesday, Sept. 9. What’s interesting about Apple’s keynote–besides the fact that Steve Jobs is back with a brand new kidney and still looks too thin–is that despite giving all the iPods boring, incremental updates, iPods are now starting to compete in several new markets.

This  week I wrote about simplicity in consumer technology, particularly in regards to Apple and the new iPod Shuffle, for my Tyler the Tech Guy column in The Occidental Weekly. Here’s the article lead:

Can something really be made too simple? Well, it depends on what that thing is. In the case of a midterm exam, the answer is “no.” But, in the case of tech products, it’s more of a gray area because simplicity often comes at the expense of features or convenience.
