pressure lines and graceless heirs

pressure lines and graceless heirs 11/18/2003 05:35 PM

I've been working on the Just A Geek rewrite for the past few hours, and I thought it may be interesting to WWdN readers to see some of the progress I've made. I think I mentioned a few weeks ago that I'm doing major rewrites, and it's taking a lot longer than I expected. I mean, I thought I'd have galleys out to reviewers by now, and I'm on page 101 instead. I think it's okay, though, because I get happier and happier with each rewrite, and that pleases my inner perfectionist.

The UK court ruling is the latest setback on the way to what could be the Disney company's financial ruination for (ironically!) trademark infringement. Link

Using peer pressure to your benefit


Using peer pressure to your benefit 04/05/2005 07:31 PM

Announcing something I've been playing with over the past few nights: Fitlog

The reasoning behind the site is in the first post to it, and I'm also fulfilling a promise to try out WordPress, especially the "custom fields" option, which I'm using to track my daily weight, time ridden or run, and distance ridden or run. Since it's all in a database, I'm also using PHP/SWF Charts to plot a live graph of my data over time (eventually I'll graph all the new fields, once I start running and riding more).

So far it's fun and a great motivation to get out and exercise each day, and my hope is that I succeed in front of everyone's watchful gaze instead of failing miserably, which of course, is always a possibility.

It may not have the visibility of Macworld or the anticipation of a special press event, but on Wednesday at 5 p.m. ET, all eyes will be on Apple. And if history is any indicator, the immediate future of the company is at stake. Wednesday represents the day when Apple will report its second-quarter earnings, the first such report since the stock split after hitting an all-time high. Currently, the stock is treading at around $44 (or $88 in pre-split-adjusted pricing) and hasn’t budged much since the Feb. 18 division. The furthest it has dipped is $39, and it has yet to break its $45.44 high. Which isn't to say it hasn’t seen its share of activity. On Friday, in fact, AAPL was the seventh most active stock, despite gaining just 18 cents. Investors seem to be split themselves on how the company will fare in the coming months. The good news? Apple hasn't revised its second-quarter outlook, which was forecast to see revenue of just under $3 billion and earnings per diluted share of 20 cents. (Wall Street expects slightly higher results of $3.2 billion and 23 cents a share.) But here's where Apple's reputation precedes it. Aside from the usual profit-takers following the great divide, a split is designed to make an astronomical stock more affordable for the masses. And traditionally, this is what happens. Apple, on the other hand, has seen nothing but bad luck in the months following a stock split, the worst of which came in 2000, culminating with a single-day drop of $27.75 just three months after the split. Of course, there was no iPod then. Nor a Mac mini. Nor the iTunes Music Store or Mac OS X. But just as these innovations have propelled Apple to fame and fortune, they could spell its downfall, much like the iMac and Power Mac G4 Cube in 2000. For one, the Mac mini — which has dropped out of the Apple Store Top Sellers list — has a lot riding on it. Apple has yet to offer any estimates and Wall Street seems to think sales will be impressive, largely due to this so-called "iPod halo effect." And the shuffle, also expected to post dazzling numbers, doesn't quite have the same profit margin as its bigger brothers: More than twice as many shuffles need to be sold to equal the mini’s revenue. Plus, it doesn't seem like the iPod is quite as popular as it was last year. But that remains to be seen. Apple's second quarter is always its most difficult. The weeks following the holiday buying season rarely see much in the way of sales, and with no major holidays to count on and a year's worth of advertising to budget for, it's difficult to drum up new business. As usual, Macworld did a fine job of creating buzz early in the quarter, but there hasn't been much else to drum up sales, save slightly revamped iPod and PowerBook lines. No Power Mac, no iMac, no iBook, no Tiger pre-order… (But the third quarter should certainly be something special.) That is, assuming Apple lands on its feet on Wednesday. It's up to Apple two smallest and newest products to carry the weight, lest the stock tumbles and sends Apple back to the drawing board. And all of us back to being underdogs.
