The Best Thing at MacWorld, Part 1 (Video)

By on January 30, 2011 in MacWorld

My early contender for MacWorld Best in Show actually went on sale late last year. So it might get disqualified on a technicality. But algoriddim’s djay for iPad is still awesome. This $20 app turns your iPad and iTunes library into a dual-deck wheels of steel set up complete with multitouch-aware control over scratching, crossfaders and queue points, and digital wizardry like the ability to instantly jump to any point in a song.

NOTE: In the video above, he’s the deejay and I’m the rapper … well, I’m the guy bobbing his bald dome at the end, anyway.

Noah Kravitz mourned the day that Star Castle was replaced in the pizza parlour he frequented as a kid. The sadness ended when he saw an older kid make it to the Ninth Key level on the Pac Man that took his place. Years later he’s become a fixture of consumer tech reporting on the InterWebs and TV, and Galaga vies with Zoo Keeper as his all-time favorite arcade games. His loves of music, games, TV, video editing and yapping endlessly at anyone who’ll listen have all been channeled into an Internet addiction that spans screens big and small and devices portable, pocketable, and best left on his desk. Noah has been reporting on gadgets and media for a decade and a half now, including writing, podcasts and videos for PhoneDog, MacDirectory, Maximum PC, PowerBook Central, and a few other publications. He’s also written about the arts, education, and sports for some magazines you’ve likely never heard of, and has invaded your television talking about consumer electronics on CNBC, Fox Business Network, and a host of local TV stations.
