TidBITS#1039/09-Aug-2010
========================
  Issue link: <http://db.tidbits.com/issue/1039>

  For those overwhelmed by the industry's focus on the iPhone and
  iPad, this week's issue should be a refreshing dose of Web- and
  Mac-oriented content. To start, iCal looms large, with Matt Neuburg
  making the switch from Remember? with the help of two geeky freeware
  tools, and Mark Anbinder covering another iCal-related utility,
  Today, which shows upcoming events in a floating window. Plus, Lex
  Friedman reviews the GadgetTrak 3 theft-recovery software, and we
  welcome as sponsors the Mac-focused Useful Fruit Software and Econ
  Technologies. On the Web side of things, Glenn Fleishman covers the
  shuttering of Google Wave and Adam examines Smith Micro's new
  SendStuffNow file-sharing service. Notable software releases this
  week include Pear Note 2.0, ScreenFlow 2.1.2, Interarchy 10.0.1, and
  Digital Camera Raw Compatibility Update 3.3.
