In the 2024-09 Update, Chuck gives a brief update on the new MacVoices web site that includes a new blog option to provide information that just doesn’t fit in a full MacVoices show, as well as a way to schedule updates and more. The MacVoices Live! schedule is explained and the ad tracking subject tackled, along with support options and the monthly Support Report.
Jeff Gamet and Chuck Joiner continue their discussion of wearables on The Mac Show on The British Tech Network, turning to smart glasses and smart clothes.

They touch on the past Apple-Nike collaboration, and debate the accuracy of step counts in wearables. Other possible issues include kinetic charging, extra batter power, and more. (Part 2)
