iPod and iTunes Hacks

Contributors

The following people contributed their hacks, writing, and inspiration to this book:

• Doug Adams is the webmaster of “Doug’s AppleScripts for iTunes” (http://www.malcolmadams.com/itunes), a web site that offers free AppleScripts for iTunes and resources for people who write them. The site was started in late 2001 and originally offered AppleScripts for SoundJam MP, the wicked cool MP3 player for Macintosh computers that was acquired by Apple and that eventually evolved into iTunes. Doug has been working with AppleScript since its debut during the days of System 7, but he has been programming anything that moves since buying a mail order Commodore 64 in 1983. In addition to the iTunes AppleScripts site, he maintains the “AppleScripts for Tex-Edit Plus Archives” (http://www.malcolmadams.com/te/). Doug lives in Providence, Rhode Island with his wife, Natalie, and daughter, Ellen. When he’s not AppleScripting (which, believe it or not, is most of the time) Doug is a freelance audio producer and commercial voiceover announcer.
