1. Comment - Mac OS X 10.6.8 is out, and you need it for Lion

   (Jun 24, 2011 - 9:05 AM)

   Anyone who thinks twitter is for 13-year-old girls possibly hasn't taken advantage of Twitter news feeds from, e.g., Techmeme, ReadWriteWeb, CNETNews, Mediagazer, Lifehacker, arstechnica, WebMasterworld, wired, TechRepublic, EFF, PCWorld, SourceForge, engadget, Reuters, IBMCloud, alistapart... just to name a few.
