Snooping for the latest scoop? What's new and notable in the world of Mac? You might find something useful in this handful of links to magazines - well, their online counterparts anyway, newsletters and even online only rumor mills and 'blogs' (web logs). No, there's no order, endorsements or guarantees. Wouldn't be quite as much fun if it was, now would it?

Magazines
Stalwarts of the Mac magazine and news business

Macworld - http://www.macworld.com/
The Granddaddy of Mac Magazines. Current events, product reviews, how-to's. Hard to go wrong by this one.

Mac|Life - http://www.maclife.com/
For the Mac fanatic and proud of it. They have historically paid more attention to upgrades than other magazines. The style is slightly "breezy," though there's usually something of interest in every issue.

Tidbits - http://www.tidbits.com/
Begun as a weekly Mac newsletter that has been published continuously in one electronic form or another since 1990. Good articles and reports by people who care. E-mail subscriptions and notifications also available.

News and Ruse
Some are reliable, others ... well, let's just say they make a good read.

Macintosh News Network - http://www.macnn.com/
Think CNN Headline News for the Apple world. Has general and OS X specific sections.

Macminute - http://www.macminute.com/
"Up to the minute Mac Coverage. Around the clock ... around the world." 'Nuff said.

MacRumors - http://www.macrumors.com/
"The Mac news you care about." Despite it's name, Mac Rumors often has solid news. Not a lot of stories, focused more on substance than quantity.

Mac OS Rumors - http://www.macosrumors.com/
"News, Opinion and Rumor for the Macintosh Power User" Well, we guess they mean it, but there's stuff for us underPowered users, too.

Mac Slash - http://macslash.com/
"A Daily Dose of Mac News and Discussion" A very active site of varied information quality on any given topic Mac related. Modeled (and named) after the ubergeek discussion site slashdot.com. ("News for Nerds. Stuff that matters.")
