What up WWDC?
This week, we take a look at my notes from WWDC. Apple’s developer conference is always the showcase for what’s to come to Apple’s ecosystem. Things like FAceTime for Android and Windows. Things like universal control tousle a common mouse and keyboard on your Mac and iPad. Things like Share Play and just how the hell does that work? We’ve got plenty to talk about and that’s what we’re going to do!
