MacInTouch

MacInTouch is a daily news and information website that provides independent coverage of Apple's Mac and iOS platforms, along with other topics such as security and privacy, networking, and technological innovation.

"MacInTouch" began as an independent print journal in 1985, originally published by Ford-LePage Inc.,[1] to provide news and information about Macintosh computers.

The MacInTouch Home Page website, created by Ric Ford in 1994,[2][3] was serving daily Mac news and information to more than a million people by 1998.

In 1993, MacInTouch analysis of a bug in Apple's HFS file system prompted a nomination for a (non-existent) "Pulitzer Prize in computer journalism.

[8] On 30 August 2021, Ric Ford (owner of MacInTouch) stated “As a business, MacInTouch is no longer viable, but thanks to supporters and special contributors, I hope to continue providing this website and subscriber/supporter services to the extent practical, which means some streamlining and project delays.”[9]
