Adobe Photoshop CS2 and Adobe Bridge

Adobe Photoshop CS2 and Adobe Bridge 06/17/2005 07:13 PM

For most graphic artists, Adobe's applications are their bread and butter. Adobe Creative Suite 2 recently hit the streets, but is it worth paying the price to upgrade? We have a comprehensive look at Photoshop CS2 along with Bridge, an image browser which "connects" the Creative Suite 2 applications.

In Photoshop 7, Adobe added a file browser to Photoshop and let it chill for two versions seeing if it would get better with age (it didn't). It was a good idea but weird in Photoshop, a really document-centric program. Now, they've taken it out of Photoshop, made it an independent program to act as a connector between apps much like say, a concrete passageway or a road above water.

It makes a lot more sense this way since it was really out of place as a floating window inside the Photoshop interface. Adobe has added a favorites and collections pane in addition to the basic file system browsing, chocked it full of features to interact with other Adobe apps and added an interactive thumbnail zoom that works much like iPhoto's.

Of course, there are plenty of other apps on both Windows and Mac OS X that perform the same function (GraphicConverter represent!). Is the combination of some spiffy new features in Photoshop CS2 and the new Bridge enough to make an upgrade worthwhile? There's only one way to find out...

HealthWare Corporation has announced that it is now shipping iDental 1.0, a unique dental office management system for the Mac OS X.

The iDental program, along with iMedical, are being developed with Apple's Cocoa set of object-oriented application frameworks and Caché and ObjectScript from InterSystems.

On shipping software

On shipping software 12/20/2003 07:16 PM
I learned at an early age the importance of shipping software.

My first software award

It was 1982, I was barely a teenager, and I was at a computer fair where young geeks from all over Delaware were competing in a programming contest.

We were paired up at random with other geeks. (Early extreme programming?) Our mission: to write a BASIC program that sorted an array of strings.

Each pair had a computer to work on—we were in a room full of Apple II Plus's (or perhaps Apple IIe's). We had a time limit, something like two hours.

I discovered quickly that my co-geek didn’t actually know much about programming, so I just kind of talked to him as I wrote the program.

We faced a big decision right at the start. Should we use the slower, but easier to implement, bubble sort algorithm? My comrade just kind of shrugged and agreed. I laid it on the line: if we do it this way, I said, we won’t win, because it’s too simple. It won’t impress the judges. But at least we won’t be embarrassed: we’ll have a working program.

So I wrote a little program that wasn’t fast but that actually worked to sort an array of strings. After we were finished, I told my Dad I wanted to go home, since there was no way we were going to win. So we left.

But—you can see it coming—we did win. Someone else from my school accepted the award on my behalf. I still have it.

Lesson? Shipping is important.

Showing up

It’s kind of like what Woody Allen said, “90% of life is just showing up.” Software is the same: it has to “show up” first. If it doesn’t ship, it doesn’t exist.

I bring this up because I hear from people and read on weblogs about software that’s pretty cool but that never gets done. It doesn’t make it out into the world. And I often wish I could transfer some kind of magical shipping-energy over to the developer.

I don’t know why these projects, some of them in quite advanced stages, don’t ship. I know what I do: I myself don’t even conceive of not shipping. Once I have committed to a piece of software, I just keep going.

The brick wall of shipping

I actually picture in my head a weird little scene. I see a big field of grass with a line drawn in it, like a line on a football field. And then I picture a giant brick wall moving forward slowly but steadily toward that line. The line is the shipping mark, and the brick wall is the software. Nothing can stop that wall.

Part of shipping is attention to detail. It can get boring, tracking down and finding all the million little things. (Unless you’re a software developer, you may have no idea how much of software development is just about all the little details. It’s housekeeping. It can be overwhelming if you’re not used to it.)

Another part of shipping is making hard decisions. When do you stop? How do you know if a feature can wait until a later release? How do you know which bugs you can live with and which are deal-stoppers?

And another part of shipping is anxiety. What if there’s a terrible bug that doesn’t appear, despite all the testing, until right after it’s released? What if you made the wrong decisions about bug x and feature y?

What you do is just do the best you can—and when you make mistakes, you deal with them the best you can. You get better at shipping software every time you do it. Experience is your teacher.

Trust

Going back to my experience at that computer fair in 1982... I learned another important lesson. It’s not just that shipping is important—I also learned that I could trust myself to look at my resources and the amount of time available and the goal and make a good call. I learned I could trust my judgment. That doesn’t mean I don’t make mistakes—I have and I will. But I think this self-trust is important to shipping software.

(An important point though is that self-trust doesn’t mean don’t listen to other people. The opposite is true. You want as much feedback as possible. The buck stops with you, though.)

Hey, I heard a rumor that the mythical Neonode N1 phone/mp3 player/camera -- you know, the one that was supposed to start shipping, like, two years ago? -- has started shipping to customers. There's nothing on their site, though, so if anyone would like to confirm or deny the vaporous rumors, feel free.
