information shutdown in burma

Saturday, September 29th, 2007

I’m not going to pretend to understand all of the dynamics going on in Myanmar formerly known as burma. So far I know the government decided to double gas prices causing the monks to unite and protest. The last time there was a major protest in 1988, lead mainly by university students, it was harshly [...]

say hello to the ibrick

Friday, September 28th, 2007

If you bought the iPhone day 1 you got a $200 hosing (offset by a $100 gift certificate to spend on Apple products,) then if you hacked it hopefully you stayed away from this week’s software update because, as Apple warned, it turns a hacked iPhone into an iBrick!

beast, we are what we eat

Friday, September 28th, 2007

I have long missed ClarkLewis. Yes I know the restaurant still exists as a name, a building and a place to consume food but the spirit of the place has been gutted. A recent visit there left me longing for the wild and crazy days of Michael, Naomi and Morgan before the meltdown. It’s now [...]

3:10 to Yuma is the best movie I’ve seen in years. I dare you to disagree with me after watching this clip. DARE.

holden outerwear, great use of video for online product marketing..

Thursday, September 27th, 2007

I dropped by John Winsor’s blog where I found a post (via Josh Spear) about the Holden Outerwear website and its use of video as way to have the customer truly interact with the site. As he says, the site is alive and addictive. David Nakamoto had a hand in building the site, that’s the [...]

I prefer oolong, myself

Thursday, September 27th, 2007

Therefore, it’s safe to [...]
