The Apple Universe Podcast goes to Macworld 2009 in San Francisco, and to start things off, we talk to Rick Kalman, Sr. Product Manager, Desktop Products at FileMaker, Inc. FileMaker at Macworld announced it is shipping the new FileMaker Pro 10, a breakthrough version of the award-winning database software, which features a sleek new interface and intuitive new design. With a fresh new interface, FileMaker Pro 10 delivers the most dramatic design changes in over a decade. The redesigned and customizable Status Toolbar – similar to browser toolbars – puts commonly used FileMaker Pro features, previously only accessible from the main menu, right at users’ fingertips for streamlined navigation, better workflow and time-saving shortcuts.
