In this just-before-the-iPad-is-released edition of the Macworld podcast, I talk with two very special guests. The first is my daughter. She asks questions about one of our favorite pastimes—stop-motion animation—and I answer them. I’m then joined by Macworld’s urbane ungulate, the Macalope, to discuss the state of Apple punditry, the iPad, and animal husbandry.

Show Notes

The basis for our talk about stop-motion animation is my recently published Create Stop-Motion Animation article. If you have kids, a Mac, and a camcorder or digital still camera, creating these jittering movies will become one of your favorite family activities. If you’re a kid at heart, ditto.
