The Talk Show: 2014 Year in Review


I was delighted to join John Gruber on The Talk Show this week to discuss everything that happened with Apple in 2014.



Special guest Rene Ritchie returns to the show for a special Apple 2014 year-in-review episode. Just a few of the many topics covered: Apple's Beats acquisition; WWDC 2014 in hindsight; an aside speculating on the alternate universe where Google acquired WebOS instead of Android; the similarities between the "projected UI" nature of AirPlay, CarPlay, and WatchKit; UI fonts (Helvetica Neue in Yosemite, Apple Sans, and the Watch's San Francisco (a.k.a. "DINvetica")); Apple's growing ability to design and bring to market its own hardware internals and components; recent controversies and confusing rejections at the App Store (and the need for a public-facing App Store ombudsman); and what we're looking forward to in 2015.



You can grab a beverage and stream it now via the dingus above or, better still, subscribe to it via Daring Fireball.
