2022 is over, and there are picks to be scored. After grading their predictions for the year, Stephen, Myke and Federico amend some rules and put their flags in the ground for 2023.

It’s a big start to the new year on Mac Power Users:
It’s not every day that Apple releases a new productivity app, but with iOS 16.2 and macOS Ventura 13.1, the company launched Freeform, an infinite canvas app for sketching, organizing and sharing information. David and Stephen have been using it extensively and break it all down this week.
We did all of out show prep in Freeform itself:
There are some very 1.0-feeling things in Freeform, but overall, it’s already a great tool and if Apple doesn’t let it wither on the vine, I think it has a bright future.
Myke, Federico and Someone Who Kind of Sounds Like Stephen review 2022’s biggest Apple stories, grading them from “Nightmare” to “Best, I Love You.”
2022 had some downright wild tech stories, and it was a lot of fun to grade each month’s news with the best scale known to humankind:

This week on a Very Normal Episode of Connected:
The boys celebrate the holidays with their annual gift exchange, and then it’s time to make predictions for what will happen in 2023–but first, it’s time to score our picks from the past year and crown a new champion.
On this feedback episode of MPU, David and I reflect on the first year of the MacSparky Labs, discuss the recent Eufy camera news and answer a bunch of listener questions.
I recently sat down with Martin Feld to talk about the history of Connected and Relay FM, as well as my story as an indie content person on the web. Go check it out.
On this week’s show, we have feelings about websites, then talk about the new features in iOS 16.2 and the possibility of Apple opening up the iPhone.
I’m particularly pleased with our conversation around Twitter and social media.
I don’t link to every Ungeniused episode here on 512 Pixels, but today’s is my favorite in a long time.

Somehow, we’ve reached the 50th anniversary of the final crewed lunar Apollo mission, so Jason and I are back with a Liftoff episode breaking it all down.
This week on the World’s Greatest Podcast:
Myke has returned and has feelings about recent developments on the show. After Myke tries to punish Stephen with a set of quiz questions, Federico explores Obsidian’s new Canvas feature.
On the Pro version of the show, Viticci told us about his wild boar encounter and we react to today’s iCloud news.
Charlie Chapman is the developer behind Dark Noise and the host of the Launched podcast. This week, he talks with David and Stephen about his experience as an iOS developer and what it’s like when Apple adds OS features that compete with something you’ve built.
Yesterday, Tiff Arment published the final episode of Somehow I Manage, our Office re-watch podcast. We were joined by the wonderful Mikah Sargent, who was Tiff’s original cohost:
Tiff, Stephen, and Mikah pull up some hay bales (with complementary hay hooks) and share an emotional goodbye as they discuss “Finale”. This episode of “The Office” originally aired on May 16, 2013.
Hosting SIM was a great way to re-live one of my favorite TV shows. Thank you all who listened!
