Today's Story Highlights

Despite Aperture Fumble, the Photos for OS X End Goal Could Win It All
There's a lot riding on Apple's new Photos for Mac OS X app. At WWDC,
Apple briefly showed off an early version of its upcoming Photos app,
which will integrate with iCloud and the iOS 8-based Photos app with the
iCloud Photo Library service. Naturally, this plan raised some
questions, and late last week, Apple revealed that it has stopped
developing new features for Aperture and iPhoto.

Microsoft's Threshold: Low Expectations but High Stakes
As the anticipated April 2015 launch of Windows Threshold draws closer,
Microsoft is tightening up its features. One of the OS Group's main
goals in the design and development of Threshold is to make it more
palatable to Windows 7 users, it seems. New features aimed at desktop
users who may or may not use touch input are expected. The new OS may or
may not be called "Windows 9."

Yahoo Saves Greendale in 'Community' Rescue
Fans of the sitcom Community have cause to celebrate after Yahoo renewed
the show for a sixth season. Creator and showrunner Dan Harmon has
signed on, along with seven core cast members. The season will have at
least 13 episodes and will air weekly starting this fall. NBC ran the
show, which centers on the fictional Greendale Community College, for
five seasons before canceling it.
