TidBITS#816/13-Feb-06
=====================

  Ever been frustrated when looking for a power outlet in an
  airport? Adam feels your frustration and adds some of his own.
  He also looks at TypeTester, a slick Web application for choosing
  typefaces. Matt Neuburg returns from an AppleScript-induced
  hiatus to tell us about his new AppleScript book (and other
  AppleScript-related projects) and to review OmniGraffle 4,
  a powerful diagramming tool from The Omni Group. In the news,
  Apple lowers prices on the iPod shuffle and introduces a new
  iPod nano, and we release "Take Control of .Mac" 1.1 to cover
  .Mac's new features and iLife '06.
