This is my personal weblog where I post everything that doesn't really fit into my other sites. If you're interested those can be found at storyFANATIC and Seward Street. The former is all about storytelling and screenwriting; the latter all about character animation.

Of course, everything online is kept in place at my personal homepage.

Now you know everything.
Audiences are good people. They will watch mean characters like Walt Kowalski or Shrek or Scrooge, because they will quietly hope for them to change for the better and discover the good in life

Engraved Kindle

Cool idea, but I don’t think I could part from it long enough to have this done.

You always start with too many ideas.

Kindle 2 Review

a palpable stigma here associated with a person who does not read actual literature. It was beginning to get me down. “Maybe,” I thought, being fully aware of my status as technology-obsessed lunatic, “if I bought a Kindle 2, I would start reading more.”
A justification I confidently used in my purchase of same object. Have to say, for me, it’s absolutely true. I’ve read more in the past week than I think I have in 3 years.

When I was growing up, I’d go down to La Jolla to visit my grandparents and watch MTV for 13 hours a day (this was when the channel first started). This video would come on at least eighteen times. That’s why I find this funny.

Love those headphones (their earbuds are great too).  It doesn’t surprise me that Marco, the maven, is a Sennheiser guy.

I love them too - and pretty much for all the same reasons that Marco lists: great sound, cancel out external noise, and super comfortable. I’ve had two pairs in about 5 years. The last pair died because I kept taking them home over the weekend to play Call of Duty 4.

Best place to get them (price and service) I’ve found is: headphones.com.

aboutalex:

This is my son’s first web ad, and I couldn’t be more proud.  In all his enthusiasm he, of course, made it in MS Paint and intends on having it flash (regardless of my advice that most people don’t like flashing ads).  In our kitchen there is even a countdown to when his website will go “live.”

At 9 years old he’s undertaken the monumental task of learning how to program computer games, starting with Java.  He spent the last year creating Super Mario World levels with Lunar Magic and, having grown bored with that, is ready to move on to the next big thing.

This is going to be big for Instapaper users who are also Kindle owners. And I hope to increase the number of people in that group.

I would be one of those…can’t wait!

Do you want to know why there are so many crappy films in the world? Because there are so many great networkers who want to direct.
