Apple released, Mac OS 10.6 Snow Leopard, the refined version of Leopard on Friday.  It is fast and very responsive and has some nice upgrades to the expose features, more on that in a latter post. 

This is a warning about Snow Leopard and the Fujitsu Scansnap. The Fujitsu Scansnap Quick Menu does not work in Snow Leopard.  So if you use it to alter the settings for each scan be prepared to do without something until Fujitsu fixes it. 

Fujitsu says it'll be done in 2009 and they have released a patch for now.  More on this issue from Fujitsu.

I hate to see two of my favorite things not play well together.

I have been using Acrobat 9 pro in Snow Leopard and open up a PDF with Acrobat 8 Pro and so so far no troubles. Losing Acrobat would be hurtful, I'll keep you posted.

PDF, Adobe, Reader, and Acrobat: The Essentials View/Print
This may be the most misunderstood, confused, and even confusing subject in law office tech. I have seen resumes from lawyers that claim to be expert in Adobe, expert in a entire company? PDF is often regarded as an inherently secure format, it's not. The difference between Reader and Acrobat is often not recognized. And the enormous capability of Acrobat goes tragically underutilized. Here is what you need to know to clear up the confusion and get on the way to using some truly incredible software.
Twitter Grader, SEO, and Web 2.0 View/Print
Depending on who you ask, Web 2.0 is either a marketing concept based on information sharing or set of technical innovations in web technology. But I think no matter who you ask the two combine to form a big conversation between people. Twitter is a great example of an enormous conversation 140 characters at a time.
