I am a huge fan of MacBreak Weekly. Most of all I love the “Picks of the Week” at the end of each show. There hasn’t been one episode that hasn’t led me to download some incredibly useful app I’d never heard of (although I tend to use the word useful quite loosely).
Every once in a while I come to a problem the solution to which is an app I remember having been mentioned in Picks of the Week. I can picture the app’s functionality in my head. This time it would really be useful, but I can’t remember its name. I go to the show’s website, but I don’t remember if it was mentioned 3 weeks or 3 months ago. I search, but nothing helpful comes up. (God bless ’em for the work they do, but the show notes aren’t exactly complete all the time, and Google doesn’t seem to like them too much.)
After the third time this happened to me, I decided to do something about it. I figured it was probably happening to other people, too. SNPP lets me find half-remembered references from Simpons episodes, so why can’t I do the same thing for MBW?
So, I present to you here my little effort in unabashed fanboyness. Enjoy. I hope you find it “useful.”
Cheers,
Jerry Brito
P.S. I started this in June 2007. Every episode after number 44 will be added as it becomes available. Episodes prior to 44 will be added slowly but surely.
