Startup Contest

Saturday, March 31st, 2007

I’m like 100% sure this is not an April Fool’s joke. Allen let me in on it the other day. This is a true contest that has decent judges. A nice list of prizes so far, and more to come. If you are a startup, and you can make an informercial type of video, head over to CenterNetworks to read the details.

Sopranos

Saturday, March 31st, 2007

Well this being close to April 1st, everything online right now is suspect. Even Robert came off his 1 week hiatus to blog an April Fool’s offering. Steve Jobs has a blog. Sure.

One thing that is not is that the Sopranos returns for the final 9 episodes starting next Sunday April 8th. Here are 2 pretty decent videos. One recaps the first season in 7 Minutes - which is interesting, since my old podcast believed in the 7 minute format. The other one is a recap of the first 6 seasons of “who died in what episode”.

Since it is April 1st, or will be shortly, this link that supposedly has the first episode leaked online is to be used at your own risk. NewTeeVee wrote an entire piece on it, but who knows? April Fools from NewTeeVee?

April Fool’s Joke; twitter Saturday …

Saturday, March 31st, 2007

Did Mike just lay down a big F**ked April Fool’s Joke? Steve Rubel thinks so. Mike has since come back to deny that. While Robert has some of the most interesting things to say. Then of course, I’m a little lame - but it’s raining here!

Technically Speaking, twitter follow me and you will also see the fun that twitter is.

Round Up Saturday: 3/31/2007

Saturday, March 31st, 2007

It’s the end of March, and quite an overcast day here in STL. Rain on and off, and the sounds of a new OS install going on to the left of me. Here is what I found, next it’s time to hit the Link Blog, and maybe more this evening.

Blogger’s Code Of Ethics - This took about a week to put together, and we shall see if anyone is going to adopt these 7 rules that Tim O’Reilly put out. I think they are decent, and all bloggers should adopt them.

Xcerion - New web OS / top that even Om likes.

China servers being used - It looks like crime is everywhere, even online. That is probably not a big revelation. The Chinese need to tighten up their security.

Google, hire him! - Why not? Give him an interview, I’m sure with your billions, you could use a good blogger.

Google airbrushing - Sorry, now I guess you won’t hire him or me. Well you already did a phone interview with me back in 2003; didn’t quite understand what you were doing then with RSS; my bad! Seriously, that is probably not something you should be doing, changing history with pictures before Katrina. Katrina happened, and it should not be hidden history.

Spamblogs or Splogs - I see links all the time from them; they get deleted. Comments also; deleted. I hope I got them all, or my Technorati Ranking will plummet.

It is of course a SplashCast channel that Marshall put together a little while ago. This is all the US Candidates YouTube videos in one spot:
