The authors of the new iBook, 60 Mountain Lion Tipsa, David Sparks and Brett Terpstra, give us a a look behind the curtain at what it took to put the book together, including their virtual collaboration, how they selected the tips, and more. Sharing a few of their favorite tips along the way, the conversation includes views on app development, the iBook format, why you shouldn’t be afraid of the terminal, and all sorts of other geeky observations by a couple of authors who dig deep into the Mac OS and iOS to make things easier for you.
