Bushel 

My thanks to Bushel for sponsoring this week’s DF RSS feed. Bushel is a simple-to-use cloud-based tool to manage the Apple devices in your workplace. With Bushel you can easily set up and protect all of the Apple devices that you distribute to your team. Provide access to company email accounts, automatically install work apps to every device in one fell swoop, and protect your team’s private data from company data. You can manage those Apple devices when you want, wherever you are. Bushel makes the complex simple.

Your first three devices are free forever, and each additional device is just $2 per month.

Greg Duffy, after The Information’s scathing look inside Nest yesterday:

Zing.

Airfoil 5.0 

Nice update to Rogue Amoeba’s excellent “send audio from your Mac to other devices” app, Airfoil:

Perhaps the biggest change in Airfoil is that it now supports sending audio to Bluetooth devices. Airfoil has always been able to send audio to AirPlay outputs, like the Apple TV and AirPort Express. Now, it also works with the thousands of different Bluetooth speakers, headphones, and headsets available. With Airfoil 5, you can stream a single application’s audio to a Bluetooth device (or multiple Bluetooth devices!), and keep the rest of your audio on your Mac.
