When you shoot some video, you have a number of options to get it online. Unfortunately, all of them seem to currently suck unless you…
WordCamp Whistler is coming up later this month (January 24) and tickets are going fast. They are also going to cost more if you wait until after Friday to buy yours so now is the time to get them while they are only $35. I’m going to be giving a talk up there about how…

As SXSW 2007 was winding down, Frank and I were discussing the possibility of presentating at next years conference. We even talked to a number of panelists to get some insight into the process (special thank you to Jonathon Snook for the extended chat at the Iron Cactus!). Once we got back home, we gave…
