Animation is supposed to be difficult, right? Well, the folks at Toon Boom don't think so. They've come out with Flip Boom, a free-form animation application that teaches kids the notions of timing and motion.

Several web sites few have ever heard of suddenly became well known in the past few weeks because they claimed to have been hacked by "Malcor". In what can only be described as a stupid stunt gone wrong, Apple Matters has fessed up that it was all a hoax. Why would anyone do something so idiotic? Tune in Wednesday evening to find out.

Lesa is on this week with her iStockphoto.com Graphic Tip of the Week and Peter Cohen of Macworld will have "The Big Story".
