Jessica E. Lessin and Joan S. Lublin, Wall Street Journal

> If you bounce between the same locations frequently, it can sure save you a lot of clicking and fiddling.

<http://9to5mac.com/2013/02/28/review-files-is-the-finder-for-ios-youve-been-waiting-for/>

**** Koozoo Lets You Watch And Send Live Pictures ****
<http://www.tuaw.com/2013/02/28/koozoo-lets-you-watch-and-send-live-pictures/>
Mel Martin, TUAW


> The free Koozoo app is based on an intriguing idea. It lets you shoot video with your iPhone and share it live with other users. You could conceivably use it to monitor the view of a city, check the line at a favorite restaurant, and so on. The catch is that only San Francisco, California and Austin, Texas are supported so far.



**** DEVONthink And DEVONnote 2.5 ****
<http://tidbits.com/article/13594?rss>
Agen G. N. Schmitz, TidBITS


> The new release enables you to synchronize databases between multiple computers and locations using Dropbox, a WebDAV server, or your own mountable drive, as well as with other copies of DEVONthink on the same local network or VPN. Colleagues can access the same "sync store," download databases, work offline, and then synchronize all changes (local and remote) either manually or automatically.



**** Silent Email Filtering Makes iCloud An Unreliable Option ****
<http://www.macworld.com/article/2029570/silent-email-filtering-makes-icloud-an-unreliable-option.html>
Dan Moren and Lex Friedman, Macworld


> Apple is flagging messages that it seems very sure are spam, but it has no real system in place for dealing with false positives—messages that are filtered, but aren’t actually spam.

**** DataMan Pro Returns, Again, With Fewer Features ****
<http://tidbits.com/article/13593?rss>
Adam C. Engst, TidBITS


> The new DataMan Pro 6.3 switches to a different approach, and the bad news is that not being able to use the VoIP trick means that some of DataMan Pro’s most compelling features have been removed. Notably, there’s no more hourly, daily, or weekly tracking — both overall and per-app usage stats exist only at the monthly level.

**** Prohibition & Humanism ****
<http://thehumanist.org/march-april-2013/prohibition-humanism/>
Brett Aho, Humanist


> The term <i>prohibition</i> seems to be a remnant of an age long past, when mobsters wearing slick suits and fedoras sipped moonshine in speakeasies. However, as marijuana legalization enters onto the national stage, the word is quickly becoming associated with a new intoxicant. The religious and non-religious alike find themselves once again faced with a moral question that has haunted humanity since the first caveman stumbled across fermenting fruit: Should drugs be allowed?



**** We Found Our Son In The Subway ****

Peter Mercurio, New York Times


> The story of how Danny and I were married last July in a Manhattan courtroom, with our son, Kevin, beside us, began 12 years earlier, in a dark, damp subway station.
