Here we go again... Drums roll

So, I know i have been out for a while, but rather than excuse myself for the time out, it's time to make up for time.

Tomorrow is a day in which the world stays silent and the internet roars around the globe to noise out the truth about millions of rumors and speculations about the biggest technology-meister that Apple is. The Apple Watch has become a central part of my life, my most important notifications are always at hand, and even when some WhatsApp groups bombard my wrist, it does not happen often so i can just force-touch them out of the way. My iPhone is becoming the center of my technological day to day, as the computer is my back up and office, my iPad is my library and portable mini-laptop for leaving the house and not wanting my MacBook with me (especially now that i am running iOS9 beta) and BELIEVE ME when i tell you i cannot begin to fathom running without my AppleWatch.
BUT let's step back about 2 and a half years: i went into an Apple Store here in Costa Rica and decided to buy an affordable living room upgrade called Apple TV. I now take for granted that my TV has normal channels and the infinite options for movies and series that the Apple TV allows me to have through my iPad and MacBook... And tomorrow this granted part of my life may be revolutionized: "the one place in your life where you still have the same interface from 20 to 30 years ago is your TV" said Tim Cook when asked about Apple's interest about the TV and upgrading it. And I believe that tomorrow should be one of the biggest events Apple has had in AT LEAST the last 5 years. Why?

1. iPhone has always been mind-blowing and we all know tomorrow's new version will not be the exception. Including ForceTouch is just one of the details that should come through, plus it is not about the new characteristics it's about what these do to enhance the Apple ecosystem.

2.The TV has not been updated in so long that Apple has a huge chance to make everyone's life better and even expand the ecosystem is controls and improves. Gaming, programming and new features are just a couple of things that come to mind so i believe tomorrow what we will have for TV will change it forever, i don't know about a revolution of the TV and how we use it... but the experience will improve drastically.

3. Apple Watch is and will continue to grow, but what i hope to get tomorrow or at least by the end of this year with WatchOS 2 is a thorough inclusion of the Watch into the Apple ecosystem. It is an amazing product, but right now it has more potential than execution and i believe that as the developers have native apps and improvement to the watchkit I believe true innovation will blossom and awe the world... Again as developers have done and will always do: 


All in all I could not be more excited for tomorrow's event! I really enjoy the part of just having to sit back, watch the live keynote and be amazed once again as if it was the first time Apple awe's the heck out of our heads.

The previous 3 points are more than enough to fill up one keynote agenda but let's not forget we might get a wildcard like the large display iPad... So keep your eyes open for any:

"One more thing..."

Let the tech year unfold...

The new Apple event was announced a couple of days back. And my last tech-episode on the podcast got me thinking about this year and the current "trends" in tech. I believe that Apple has one of the biggest challenges you could ever hear in front of them: adapt to survive WHILE BEING ON TOP. Steve Jobs was an amazing underdog, a creative mastermind that rose to the top of the tech community at his time and shot Apple like a rocket to the summit of the world as one of the most influential and prosperous companies ever... However, that IS NOT the company that Tim Cook has had to deal with. Apple is now working in saturated laptop and smartphone markets and is trying to maintain its innovation and creativity. People think it is easy to stay on top... Amazon has had to get all kinds of creative by entering product line, new services offers and buying pieces of the market they compete in as they did with Whole Foods. Facebook is saved by the quality of companies like In

What does Captain Marvel MEAN to the MCU?

So, here's the deal. I did a podcast entry about captain marvel and my thoughts on the movie and how unimpressed I was about some things and how glad and proud other parts of the movie made me. And that’s when it came to me: the current state of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Captain Marvel was not the best movie, it was a necessary one. Clearly, the end of an era approaches quickly as April is almost here with Endgame. Do you think for a minute that Kevin Feige is done with his plan for the MCU? Do you think that they introduced the world to such great successful Black Panther, Spiderman, Captain Marvel, Guardians of the Galaxy AND Dr. Strange just because? Well if you do, you have something else coming your way… And that is the only thing I fear in the MCU. You see, the success story of Marvel has been with a great formula and an expansive universe that has great comedy, range and plot; that same amazing formula has been leading up this very important and climatic movie call

Apple's Endgame

So, here we are. Apple announced hardware via internet and called everyone in for services… Was the latter part of the presentation awkward? Yes. Could it have been planned in a more effective way? Probably. However, we got what we got and we must understand that Apple does not act without a plan. Here is my analysis of the true importance behind the event this past Monday: The Mac, the iPod, the MacBook Air, the iPhone, the iPad, the Apple Watch these are all attempts at products to drive the business. Some way more successful than others, they all have made what Apple is and will continue to be today. You see, there is a commonality amongst those products… They are not services. And THAT is exactly what Apple told the world on Monday: services are the future. Does this mean that it is THE END for iPhone, Apple Watch, etc. etc.? HELL NO! It means that the market is the market! And the iPhone is stagnating and decreasing in sales, the Mac, iPad and even Apple Watch cannot sus
