There is only a handful of days left to vote for the panels that *could* end up being presented at SXSWi next March. I’ve already outlined the panel I put together in a previous post but wanted to explain a little bit about why it’s important for your votes…even if you’re not planning on attending…
As a follow up post to my which camera should I buy post, I thought it might be a good idea to give some tips as to where to buy that camera, now that you’ve decided what you want to get. These are some simple tips that I use when I want to buy camera…
This past weekend, there was a photowalk along Powell Street. It was the first of hopefully many that a group on Facebook is organizing. My pal Scott is one of the admins. We hope to have these every couple of weeks so if you’re interested, make sure you join the group to keep in the…
Today, Wired.com posted an article about the iPhone surpassing all other cameras to take the top spot on my favorite photo sharing website, Flickr. This isn’t surprising to me…I have over a thousand photos taken with the iPhone on there alone. Even cooler than that though was the fact they used one of my photos,…

It’s not on any Canadian sites yet for preorder but I’ll update this post when it is. It’s a pretty slick update to Leopard (10.5) and…
I can only imagine what an unassuming tourist visiting Vancouver would have thought when they turned the corner onto Robson street this past Sunday morning and stumbled upon the staging area for the 2009 Vancouver Pride Parade: There were more DSLR cameras in use along the parade route than I’ve ever seen in one place…
Assuming you haven’t already. A few years ago, my wife and I tried out a number of the VOIP players (in Canada) to save money on our landline. We tried Vonage and it was horrible…although I suspect it was possibly either a crappy Linksys router I had at the time or traffic shaping by my…
You probably knew this was coming. I bought an $8 camera mount and trusted a $400 camera on it while riding on a bumpy gravel trail. Turns out that the P6000 doesn’t have any stabilization while shooting video so I should have switched back to the much lighter Zi6 camera before pressing on with my…
