WOW! Here’s why to go cheap/fast/light!

I saw this and had a big surge of “And THAT, M-Fers, is why I got into HD for Indies in the first place!!!! An F900 can SUCK IT!” What we have here are two skimboarders (OK OK I cheated in the headline sub – skimboarders is long/complex/weaker than surfer) with a cheapie GoPro camera….on a broomstick.

GoogleVoice improves its functionality on the iPhone

GoogleVoice has recently improved its functionality on the iPhone by upgrading its optimized iPhone website, both esthetically and operationally. In light of the misinformation published by some other tech journalists, I must clarify that GoogleVoice has been working fine on the iPhone for many months, at least with three of its features.

No, when I return on 02/13, I will have been here for over two weeks. But it’s all very exciting — just a matter of keeping the basics on target (water, food, sleep). My first Rotterdam experience occurred not in the city itself but on the shuttle on the way from Amsterdam. I was fortunate enough to share a cab with Pippilotti Rist. I didn’t know it at the time, but she is a prolific and amazingly imaginative video and…
