I’m in Austin, TX at SXSW Interactive, the mecca of all things tech/social media/web2.0, blogging on the fly in a hallway lined with bloggers, twitterers, and podcasters in the humongous Austin Convention Center. Simply stated, this conference is unlike anything that I’ve ever experienced in my life. To be surrounded by so many [...]
Just for kicks:
Space Tourism
Video Teleconferencing
Holographic Teleportation
Robot Companions
WWW
Flying Cars
Hoverboards
Does that about sum it up? Let me know if I missed anything.
Just as I was beginning to think we’d seen all there was to see in this golden age of technology, a glimpse of the mountaintop:
Unbelievable! My jaw literally dropped to the floor in disbelief when I caught this during last night’s broadcast. I mean, I know we’ve made tremendous leaps on [...]
I think I’ve thrown every color combination imaginable at the Multicolr Search Lab– a tool that allows users to find photos on Flickr, not by keywords, but according to the colors contained within them–and I haven’t managed to stump the damn thing yet.
Check out the results I got when I ran a search [...]
It looks like they’re letting TiVo in on the fun as well:
Netflix will place its Watch Instantly streaming-movie service on TiVo’s HD-compatible set-top boxes, furthering the technology industry’s goal of sending television shows and movies over the Internet — instead of over traditional cable and satellite networks — to ordinary TVs.
Seriously, I don’t know who [...]
As John McCain would say it, it’s goin down in November, my friends.
Let’s see, we’ve got Gears of War 2 dropping at the top of the month (Nov. 7th), followed by Call of Duty: World at War (Nov. 11th). And although COD isn’t exactly a 360 exclusive, PC aside, we all know where its [...]
Black.Alltop.com, to be exact!
It’s a little ironic (and a bit shameful) that my last three posts have all centered around Gureala’s recent accomplishments in the blogosphere, yet my posting game has been less than admirable lately. But I’m workinonit. Nonetheless, I’m flattered as hell to be listed on Alltop, and amongst so many [...]
Although nothing can truly replace a good old fashioned vinyl and turntable setup in my book, I’m always fascinated by these homegrown virtual dj contraptions:
Sharpie, paper, video camera, dj software (TRAKTOR in this case), and no high-tech touch surface whatsoever. Who woulda thought? And to think vinyl purists thought Serato was the absolute [...]
This is the app that I’ve been waiting for! Full WordPress access in the palm of my hand, and all ready to go whenever and wherever I get the sudden urge to blog. Which in this case, is right now. My only complaints so far: there doesn’t seem to be a way [...]
Interesting feature in the New York Times on Macrumors.com founder and senior editor, Arnold Kim, and his decision to stop practicing medicine and pursue blogging full time. The kicker: his popular blog now nets him a hefty six figure income (the same amount he made as a doctor):
Stepping away from medicine felt somewhat strange, [...]
