Weekly Video Overview: 6-10th August
Media August 10th, 2007
I want to showcase weekly videos on The Glenn Wolsey Show without embedding each clip into a separate blog post. The solution? A post every weekend showing what was produced from Monday to Friday, some weeks you might see two videos, others you might see ten.
In addition to checking out what has been produced each week here, you can subscribe to the show on YouTube, or iTunes.
Aperture Image Management
Tom asked a question regarding how he should be managing his folder structure within Apple’s professional image management tool Aperture. I run him through how I am managing projects, folders, and smart albums using iShowU, a screen-casting application.
Watch Aperture Image Management on YouTube.
Quality Speakers On A Budget
Bryan Muller was looking for some good quality speakers for his Mac Pro on a budget. I recommend Altec Lansings FX6021 system which I just picked up as an addition to my system. I too found my new Mac Pro lacked one element, a good sound system. The Altec Lansing FX6021 speakers provide superb bass and treble levels, and ships with a nifty desktop controller and wireless remote control.

Where To Buy RAM
Jakob Wells asked where’s the best place to purchase RAM for his Mac. For Mac RAM, I choose MacSales or Transintl. I’ve purchased from both in the past, and would recommend MacSales between the two. Superb support, quick shipping times, and lifetime warranty on RAM. Not much more you could wish for.

Thanks William, it’s been nice receiving positive comments - I have a huge list of episodes I need to record.

Yeah Glenn, I’m loving your show too. The topics you are covering are more advanced, and in my opinion, more relevant than what Chris Pirillo covers. Stuff like that and the quality of the shows, make them awesome to watch!
Keep it up!

I have a question for a future show. How do you make money online?
August 11th, 2007 at 3:10 am
it’s good tuff, only one minor complaint. I work in video production and a “tie clip” mic or shotgun mic would sound way better than the on-board camera mic. Much warmer sound and better overall quality.
also, the iTunes podcast subscription is fine, ditch the GooTube, just say no to Google!!
;o)

Love the show Glenn. I like how they’re short and to the point.

I answered this in brief here, if you want more detail, I’ll add it to the queue!
Thanks Michael, if you have any suggestions feel free to let me know.
I’ll start searching for a mic today.
Thanks Shawn, I’m trying to keep them short as to not lose anyones attention.

It might be different because you live in NZ, but I always recommend Newegg.com or Outpost.com/FRY’s for buying RAM. I picked up 4GB of PC2-5400 for my MBP for $160 from Outpost and it arrived in 3 days.

hey glenn,
I like your show, I am glad u recommended ram from macsales, since I am also lookin into buying a macpro. What is your mac pro configuration?
August 11th, 2007 at 2:06 pm
Mac Pro 2 x 2.66Ghz, 3GB RAM, 250GB + 500GB HDD. 30″ Apple Cinema Display.

I fully agree with you. The shipping times of transintl are just too long, and their customer support is even worse. Although macsales is sometimes more expensive, their after-sale service is much much better and worth every penny.
