 to be recognized by the WPA's Maggie Awards," Snell said. "These awards, along with our recent Folio Award, show what a great job the Macworld editorial staff is doing these days, both in print and online."

For the cover story of our winning June issue of Macworld, "Time- Saving Tips" (http://www.macworld.com/2005/04/features/tipshome/index.php), we asked some of the savviest Mac experts and users we know to tell us how they use their Macs to make the most of their time. They replied with tips for better Web browsing, smarter mailbox management, and more productive project-management. Elsewhere in that issue, we took an exclusive first look at the Adobe Creative Suite Adobe Creative Suite is a collection of graphic design, video editing, and web development applications made by Adobe Systems. The latest version, Adobe Creative Suite 3 (CS3), was announced on March 27, 2007; it introduced Universal binaries for all programs for the Apple  2. Our "Secrets" section included how-to guides to starting a podcast, fixing out-of-focus photographs with iPhoto, and troubleshooting misbehaving Macs. And in reviews, we looked at the latest generation of iPods and rounded up our favorite printers, monitors, and digital cameras.

In addition to the best computer consumer magazine, Macworld's "Total Tiger" special edition was presented with the best special theme issue in the consumer category. The widely popular issue provided Mac users with essential hints, tips and tricks for a smooth transition to Tiger, including a 24-page ultimate guide to its 200 new features.

"Our Total Tiger special issue gave our readers everything they needed to know about Apple's new operating system operating system (OS)

Software that controls the operation of a computer, directs the input and output of data, keeps track of files, and controls the processing of computer programs.
," Snell said. "It was created on a tight deadline by an incredibly small group of people, including Senior Editor Kelly Turner and Art Director Rob Schultz. This award is a wonderful recognition of the great work they did, as well as the fantastic expertise of all the Mac experts who write regularly for Macworld."
