Andy Ihnatko

Ihnatko appeared on the CBS Saturday Early Show on July 13, 2007, where he discussed applications for cell phones intended to imitate, if not exceed, the capabilities of the Apple iPhone.^[4] He appeared again on August 25, 2007, to report his conclusions after testing several urban legends about recovering mobile phones that had been submerged under water.

For a brief time in July 2007, Ihnatko was believed to be the author of the satirical "The Secret Diary of Steve Jobs" weblog, until his formal denial on July 24 in an article for Macworld.^[5] He has also formally neither confirmed nor denied^[6] involvement in the Steve Jobs autobiography, which was rumoured on Valleywag.^[7]

Ihnatko's writing style includes references to US popular culture, P. G. Wodehouse, comic books, cartoons, and science fiction.

Ihnatko is thought to have coined the term "Macquarium" to describe an aquarium made out of the empty shell of an early Macintosh computer. He wrote and posted online the first comprehensive set of instructions^[8] to construct one.

On September 26, 2011, Andy joined podcast network 5by5 as co-host of a weekly show, The Ihnatko Almanac, with Dan Benjamin. The show ended on October 19, 2016^[9]

In July 2015, Ihnatko, along with Russell Ivanovic and Yasmine Evjen, started the Material podcast on the Relay FM network. The podcast discusses technology company Google and related topics, and takes its name from the design language of the same name developed by Google.
