1. Watch This

I love me some Apple stuff as much as the next Apple nerd. But I'm really not sure about the watch. Reviews are trickling out and it seems mixed. Is this the next iPhone or the next Newton?

"There’s an inherent tiny amount of lag that isn’t there with a regular watch." John Gruber of Daring Fireball's review.
"It just has to answer one question: would you actually use the Apple Watch instead of your phone?" Nilay Patel at The Verge.

Apple released an update for Yosemite, 10.10.3, with a brand new Photos app that Apple hopes will crop iPhoto from your memory. I've been testing it on the beta version of OS X for a month and I think it's an improvement - particularly with iCloud Photo support.

There's also an iOS update for your iPhone or iPad - iOS 8.3 - that has emoji updates, wireless CarPlay and space bar UI fixes. My thumbs are too fat and frequently mash the space bar when I meant to hit a letter C. Your mileage may vary.

One final iPhone tip from David Sparks: If you have any contacts with extensions in their phone number, David's got a magical way to make your iPhone behave using a simple semicolon.
