History

“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. It's noted as being one of several blog-style sites that predate the definition of a blog.[4]

MacInTouch Inc. is incorporated in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

Other

In 1999, MacInTouch was noted in Linux Today for "Most tasteful and cool April foolishness: MacInTouch's transformation to MonkInTouch, complete with piano motif and lots of links to Thelonious Monk stuff."[5]

In 2006, MacInTouch published an independent analysis of Apple Mac notebook reliability based on a survey of over 10,000 notebook spanning 41 models.[6]

In 2007, MacInTouch first reported a severe data-loss bug in Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard's Finder.[7]
