Does anyone see anything new in that big post of applications?A couple of other items we hear swirling around: Word is that there are several thousand more attendees this year than last Something coming for .Mac? We've speculated, but there are murmurs... All shall be revealed soon...UPDATE: here's the blip.tv video-- just 3 mins long (special guest star at the end!)

X3F Fanpatch 1.2: introducing galleries!
As Xbox 360 Fanboy continues to grow, so do our website features. X3F is proud to announce the roll-out of image galleries! We've already rolled them into a handful of posts (see a sample gallery at the bottom of this post), but there is another exciting new feature as well, the Featured Galleries section. You can find this section on the right-hand side of Xbox 360 Fanboy. The Featured Galleries section shows off our most recent galleries and let's you peruse them at your leisure. Our new galleries allow us to share higher resolution images than before, and you can expect to see a lot more of them now that they've been fully implemented.Go check 'em out and tell us what you think.%Gallery-3369%
TUAW Exclusive: Skitch screenshot gallery
We've been blogging Skitch, a new 'hybrid' photo editing and web services tool from plasq (makers of Comic Life), since Scott first met and fell in love with it at Macworld 07. Using the app through its development, it's clear that Skitch is going to knock people's socks off, with a well-executed blend of desktop editing and integration with web services like Plasq's new MySkitch and Flickr. For example: a major new feature in an upcoming public beta (that's right, I said 'public': join the mailing list for your chance to get a copy) includes iPhoto and Aperture integration: Simply double-click an item from the library panel shown here to begin applying all manners of Skitch editing. Another feature that brings the 'hybrid' element to the table is Skitch's tight integration with web services. Skitch can send pics to FTP, .Mac and even Flickr accounts, but it also integrations with a new MySkitch service that will debut. MySkitch does a lot of interesting things, like giving you embed code for zoomable thumbnails (ideal for the likes of eBay and blogs with thin columns), a direct link for sending in email and even forum-friendly embed code. Skitch doesn't stop there though: you can also remove images from these web services directly from within Skitch, effectively making it a one-stop management shop for your images both local and otherwise.That's enough blabbing about features for now though. The folks at plasq were kind enough to allow us to publish an exclusive Skitch screenshot gallery, and published we have. Check out more screenshots of Skitch's good side, and don't forget to hit up plasq's mailing list for a chance to snag your own copy when they release an upcoming public beta. %Gallery-2528%
The hidden secrets of Outland
Inspired by this forum thread about hidden and mysterious places in Outland, I took to the skies on my windrider to check out some less-traveled places in the expansion. From the empty Horde village above Shattrath, to Challe's Home for Little Tykes, all the way to Skettis, the hidden capital of the Arrakoa, I went on a tour of some of Outland's secrets.Check out the gallery below to see all the places I found. And while I spent a night touring around, Blizzard spent months making this place. If you've found cool stuff that I didn't include in the Gallery, feel free to drop it in the comments below.%Gallery-2117%
Engadget gets hands on with Apple's new AirPort Extreme
While I still need to drop $180 to get an AirPort Extreme Base Station for 'review' from Apple, Engadget just put theirs through its paces. Overall, they found that the obvious upsides were Apple's sleek design and easy-breezy setup thanks to the revamped AirPort Admin Utility 5.0. In the drawbacks category, however, were a bizarre lack - in fact a back-step for the AirPort base station - of gigabit ethernet, and less-than-optimal transfer rates, though Engadget concedes your mileage may vary, as it so often does with wireless hardware.Engadget has also posted a hands-on gallery, which includes their own screenshots of the new Admin Utility. Strangely, they didn't say anything about some of this base station's new found abilities, such as the new AirPort Disk, one of the key features making me count my pennies in anticipation of affording one of these.
Tabards: A guide to cool things to hang over your pants
Tabards can say a lot about your character. They can be a way to show pride in your guild's ferocity or skill, or a way to show that you have a twisted, sadistic guild leader who makes everyone wear a pink fuzzy bunny tabard. They can proclaim your skill at PvP, your exalted status with certain factions, or your luck in the WoW card game. They can even show that you were a hero at the Battle of the Dark Portal or that you've earned a somewhat misleading "victory against Illidan Stormrage." What kind of tabards can you get in WoW? Read (and look) on ...
Booth tours in the galleries
We've been combing the extensive Macworld Expo 2007 floor since Tuesday and have posted some more booth tour galleries for your viewing enjoyment. Almost everyone has a presence here of some sort (sadly, almost), so we're doing our best to hit as may of the booths we can. As of this post, we have a couple handfuls of booths up, including Belkin, Crumpler, iSkin, Marware and plenty more, with even more on the way. If you couldn't make it to Macworld, these booth tours and video coverage are your next best chance.
TUAW Galleries = fun!
So something we want to do this year is give all the homebound Apple fans a taste of what it's like to BE at the crazy madness that is Macworld Expo and Conference 2007. And as we all know, pictures say a lot (video says more, and we'll be posting those later). So keep your eyes on our gallery pages. Plus you'll notice the Featured Galleries to the right over there, just itching for a click. Enjoy!
A look back at Macworld 2006 - a TUAW gallery
Remember Macworld 2006? Boy, I sure do. It was my first trip to any Macworld, my first trip to San Francisco, and my first spectacular failure as a TUAW correspondent. This year it's going to be a little different. Not only does TUAW have a crew in effect for MWSF 2007, who will be bringing you total Macworld coverage all the way up to the wee hours of Friday evening (and beyond), but we've got new tricks up our sleeve as well.What new tricks? Galleries! I've put up a few pics from last year's Macworld, but keep your browsers tuned to the gallery pages for TUAW as we'll be posting like crazy this week.
PS3, Xbox 360 form truce for photo spread
Sure, graphics and games may be all that are important to you when it comes to next-generation videogame consoles, but your spouse / significant other is probably even more concerned with how the device(s) will fit in to your home decor. Luckily for him / her, Games Radar got its hands on an exact wooden replica of the upcoming PS3 (straight from Sony, so you know it's the real deal), and did a little comparative photo shoot with the Xbox 360 so all of us have some idea of what to expect. As you can see, Sony's machine is living a lot larger than Microsoft's offering, but with its all-black exterior, the PS3 might actually be less obtrusive sitting among the rest of the gear in your rack. As appreciative as we are to Games Radar for providing some perspective on the aesthetic merits / detriments of both systems, we still think they could have taken a page out of DocCRP's book, and photographed the mockup next to every single object ever produced in the history of mankind. Oh well, maybe Doc just set the bar a little too high; keep reading for another angle, and then head over to GR for the rest of the *shudder* "pr0n"...[Via Guardian Unlimited]
Pics of Moto's KRZR for Verizon on Engadget Mobile

So if you're one of the millions of people who will end up buying this followup to the RAZR -- or if you just want to see what all the fuss is about -- head on over to our sister site and check out the full gallery...
