Apparently the bars close early around here, because I’m home now from the end of an amazing impromptu meetup. Holy schnikes, seriously guys, thanks to everyone who came out to join me. Personally, each of you are all heroes to me in ways as unique as yourselves. I only wish we had more time to hang out.
Not to get sappy, but this would have never happened without a little...

This is very good news. The doctor who scammed the world and the celebrities into thinking there was some connection between vaccines and autism has finally been punished. Rational scientists all over the world are now waiting to see if he’s kicked out of the rational circle and losing his license.

Coveted 18- to-24-year-old consumers now spend more time watching Web-distributed video than broadcast television, according to a new survey released by online video ad network LiveRail.
“We polled several hundred under-25-year-olds, and an overwhelming majority are now watching as much or more video content online as on regular TV,” said Mark Trefgarne, CEO of LiveRail. “We were...

A little over a year ago I Twittered the following:
I keep hearing “I hope Obama does what he says he will”…actually, he keeps talking about what you and I are going to do, folks. Let’s go.
Unfortunately, this is just the situation that I was imagining at that moment.

This, about a guy who tries to find the last noiseless place in America, is pretty great.

Boo-Hoo.
Maybe the Telecom Companies can put some money into their infrastructure. The US is WAY down on the list of countries with fast, capable Internet connections. (You can make it, Lil’ #18!!)

A 16-year old’s view of the Apple iPad.
Let’s face it, this is the opinion that really matters.
Just what I’d been thinking. I’ve heard Apple is very private and secretive, but don’t they do any focus/study groups on their new devices?

He’s been killing it all day on FSJ:
Let’s talk about this new device.
Yes, it will transform the media business, and by “transform” I mean it will put me in charge of it, the way the iPod put me in charge of the music industry. Yes, it will destroy cable TV and utterly transform the 60-year-old television industry, and again, by “transform,” I mean I’ll be in charge, because I’ll be...

Official Apple iPad demo.
This really tells the story better than anything I have seen so far. If you need to look at one thing to understand what the iPad is, this is it.
I JUST told myself that I wanted this kind of post to catch up on the iPad. Thanks SS!
