<p>Take Control boss <strong>Joe Kissell</strong> has just updated <a href="https://www.takecontrolbooks.com/automating/"><strong>Take Control of Automating Your Mac</strong></a> to edition 3, to reflect the constantly changing macOS landscape. Joe discusses some of those changes before covering how he makes you comfortable with automation concepts. Then, he gives us some examples of both built-in capabilities as well those of third-party utilities that can help you be more efficient in whatever you do with your Mac. Automation sounds a bit intimidating, but Joe makes it approachable and easy to see results of your efforts immediately.</p>
