Joe Kissell’s Take Control of Parallels Desktop 12
This is no longer a new idea, but I still feel a twinge of amazement when I can run Windows on my Mac. In the dark ages, the divide between Mac and Windows computers was almost too wide, and we relied on methods of sharing data that were like running across fraying rope bridges. Now, ...

Take Control of 1Password 6
One of my favorite and most-used Mac utilities received a major update this week. I rely on 1Password practically every day on my Mac, iPhone, and iPad to securely store all of my passwords, credit card details, and other essential information. Even better, 1Password 6 for Mac is a free update for owners of versions ...
New Book! Aurora HDR and Aurora HDR Professional: A Photoversity Guide
For years when I’ve been out photographing landscapes, I’ve dutifully shot bracketed exposures: three or more images that represent light, dark, and balanced views of a scene. The advantage of brackets is to combine them later into a single HDR (High Dynamic Range) photo that includes more detail than what a camera sensor by itself ...

Take Control Books is currently having its annual 50%-off sale on all ebooks, including mine! Yes, this post is partly self-serving, but when you look at the breadth of ...
Take Control of Wi-Fi
For many years, Glenn Fleishman and I shared office space in a handful of locations, with a handful of other writers, editors, and artists. He would often step into my office to chat about something going on in tech, or in the news, or just to release the pressure valve that is a writer’s brain ...
On the Shutdown of The Magazine
After two years, Glenn Fleishman is shuttering The Magazine: The sad truth has been that, while profitable from week one, the publication has had a declining subscription base since February 2013. It started at such a high level that we could handle a decline for a long time, but despite every effort — including our ...
