Sometimes trying to write while online is like trying to be sober while at Oktoberfest in Germany.

My new and improved playlist of music for writing is now near perfect. Totally helps me get into the zone.
I really love using iWork’s Pages in the idea generation phase. I love the ease of importing pictures which helps me brainstorm.
Taking all my ideas written in multiple notebooks and transcribing them into my script. This is going to take all day.

“Meet the Mayfarers” is on the homepage of Dailymotion today! Thanks so much! @Dailymotion
I can’t understand why I still get joke videos sent to me in .wmv format. Doesn’t everyone use blip/youtube etc for sending videos along?

The iPad

So earlier today I signed on Tumblr to do something fresh like like post a picture of a maxi pad and be like, “yo I already got my iPad, son!” until I realized that of course, the entire Internet had already beat me to it.
In any case, GC brought a tablet PC home not that long ago and I’ve been playing around on it ever since. From what I can tell, this computer does...
Last thoughts on Ipad - It looks great, I want one, but it doesn’t beat this demo that came out for an SI Tablet: http://bit.ly/8SUZ8k
Now that the speech is over - check out “Mayfarers” on the homepage of Blip.tv! - http://blip.tv/
Even though I’m an Apple guy - I’m interested to see if some other company will make a cool tablet device with flash on it…then decide.
gmail down in both firefox and safari…grrr
RT @thinkStory: RT @BrentSpiner: Didn’t Captain Picard used to play with a pad like that in his ready room? STAR TREK STRIKES AGAIN!!!
I don’t see how the iPad will be a Kindle killer. The Kindle is great because it isn’t a bright screen - totally different experience.
To paraphrase “Jerry Maguire” - “You had me at $499.”
Looking forward to watching “Mayfarers” on my iPad in two months. In the meantime watch it on the homepage of Blip.tv! http://blip.tv/

Anyone out there have any examples of traditional companies (accounting etc) who use Social media really well? 4 a presentation 2morrow.
Working on finishing up writing a social media presentation for tomorrow morning.
I’m looking for a Digital SLR Camera that shoots 24p but ALSO has an XLR cable for audio. Does anything like that exist?
Award for the most pointless remake goes to “Death at a Funeral.” The 1st Brit version is spot on perfect, hysterical, recent, & in English.
