22: Full Brichter

By Marco Arment, Casey Liss, John Siracusa

Marco's new-new app, Bugshot, and some of its design decisions. Cutting features from 1.0 and trying to keep Bugshot from taking too much time. Bugshot gets the John Siracusa treatment. Exploring NAS options and initial impressions of the Synology DS1813+. Economics of FreeNAS or Mac Mini alternatives. iSCSI on Macs: the free $89 globalSAN initiator and the $195 ATTO initiator, which comes recommended by storage expert Dave Nanian. NAS backup options, since Backblaze doesn't do network drives: CrashPlan (with widespread upload-speed issues), or Arq (with potentially expensive Amazon Glacier or S3 costs). Backing up Mac filesystem metadata, Backup Bouncer, and current scores of online backup apps. Data hoarding and falling into John's backup vortex. The Apple Keynotes podcast feed.
