When people ask me what is a twitter?, the answer never comes out 100% clear. This video sums up twitter in 2minutes and 25 seconds. The people at Common Craft created the clever video and you can see more video explanations at http://commoncraft.com/show

Working at CNET, I passed this tip along to CNET TV and was used in a “Insider Secrets” video. The great part at the end I got a shout out by Tom Merritt. Thanks…

Here’s the video http://www.cnettv.com/9742-1_53-32242.html

These are short films made on non-professional devices such as one-time use video cameras, cell phones, point and shoot cameras, webcams, and other inexpensive, readily available video capture devices. It reminds me of the Diana/Holga camera & the Fisher Price PXL2000 aka Pixelvision video camera concept, which I love. This definitely sparked a new interest in art for me and will be creating some shorts.

I got hooked up with the new Griffin TuneBuds mobile today for the iphone. I was expecting more companies to have headphones w/mic for the iphone since there is only a few out there. So i was happy to see that Griffin has one coming out soon. I tried them out on my bus ride home and it is hard for me to compare these to other rubber tipped earbuds since I have never tried any of them. They do cancel out 80% of the sound and I am not sure if I like that. I like to know whats going on most of the time. The sound was a little bit tinny and did not have a good scale in sound. I am used to the Apple ear buds and feel the Apple buds are more comfortable, but I think it is my opinion. For the price that they will be sold for ($39.99) I do think they are worth trying them out. They also come with a great case and 3 sizes of rubber tips. If anyone tries them out let me know what you think.
