Buzzumi + Twitter = World Wide Video Chat Service
In the history of this blog I don’t think I’ve ever published a press release — from anyone. Why make an exception now? Because this isn’t an ordinary press release. I first met Dan Marovitz when we were speakers together … Continue reading

Love, Crazy, Stupid, Love.
I hate it when life gets so busy there’s not time for blog posts. They start to stack up mentally in a queue like unread books. Since the holidays are still too far away to look to them for spare … Continue reading

Steve Jobs & The Courage of Great Design
There have been many tributes to Steve Jobs over the past few days but I found this short one by Bob Blakley to be particularly eloquent. All I know is that the company headed by this man has created the … Continue reading
A Love Letter to J.K. Rowling
