Sorg is all by himself in studio as he’s joined remotely by Chilla from Studio C and Alex Kahrs coming in from Long Beach. This week has some great updates following WWDC, including:

We promise we won’t be talking ALL Apple, but we will touch on some of the news and updates.
Alex is sharing Moovit as his Awesome Thing of the Week.
Sorg is sharing Mega Man on iOS as his Awesome Thing of the Week.
Crossover options for apps is great – but, it’s totally up to the developer to make it happen.
Speaking of apps – Chilla’s Awesome Thing of the Week is news out of WWDC18 about iOS apps on MacOS.
With the Apple updates at WWDC18, if iOS can port over to MacOS – does that mean I can play Fortnite on my Apple TV?
Thanks to Mat Weller for letting us know about the Nerf War at Century III.
Sorg has been playing some BumbleBee on AR thanks to the recent movie trailer.
When Apple talks to us about upcoming upgrades, we listen – and we share.
Apple Watch will be getting some upgrades – including walkie talkie mode!
Viewing websites and menus on Apple Watch? Yes, please.
Will Apple TV be replacing your cable box?
Sorg is playing AR videogames while podcasting.
IBM is shutting down free plans on U-Stream.
Chilla is talking about some podcast implications for Just A Line.
