Finally! I've found the audio editor for the Mac to do all those little things like trimming, noise reduction, and more. Amadeus Pro, from Hairesoft, is just what they say, the swiss army knife of sound editing.

It loads fast, is intuitive to use, appears stable, the noise reduction works great, and has some nice features such as multitrack support, batch processing, markers, and more. Free demo, $40 to purchase.

So this might be old news to a lot of people, but it's something I've discovered, or rather, actually started using a few months ago.

Smart playlists in iTunes, is one of the coolest and, in my opinion, underused features of iTunes! It allows you to keep an ever changing playlist based on certain criteria you set.

Grahamgrafxcast is a new audio podcast I'm helping out with over at the Art Lab. My buddy Graham Smith (aka Grahamgrafx), always seems to have whimsical commentary on various things, and often a unique way of relating computer jargon to real world applications, so I suggested that he do a daily Deep Thoughts style podcast. He decided to give it a shot, so for the next two weeks we're going to try it out.
