Last night I got an email from Adam Martin of Qajack, a newly launched “video game” based on Questions and answers. Think of it as Yahoo Answers meets 12seconds. Something like that.
Here’s what they say it is:
Qajack uses video to play with what you know and what you want to know. It’s deliberately simple, no [...]

Okay, so I’m still trying to figure out this whole video thing and I’m not entirely comfortable with it. But I think this format is at least a step in the right direction. This is just a quick video talking about exactly two things:
1. Gmail Video Chat
2. Twitterank and Twitter Grader
So, here goes:

You know, I hate magnify.net. I really do. Because I keep putting off using their service, and they keep reminding me that they’re excellent. I just push magnify.net to the back of my mind and then they let me know that they’ve added new features, which makes me feel bad. Well, now that they’ve added [...]

Ah, magnify.net. The service that is a constant reminder of the things I’d like to do, if only I had the time. Back in June, I asked readers what they’d do if only they had more time (and I was referring to doing things online….more time with family wasn’t the kind of thing I [...]

So, you’ve probably seen this already, but I am nothing if not a mindless follower of the latest viral. And I thought it was pretty clever, though the bit about blue shirts and khaki pants reminded me more of my days in Washington than tech parties (maybe I just haven’t been to enough tech parties).

Talk about timing. I am just finishing up some work before the big Podcamp Boston kickoff tonight, and just heard about Magnify.net. Magnify.net is a “video curation platform,” allowing people to create online channels to display their video content all over the web. You can create video channels and easily upload video to your site. [...]

There’s a terrific discussion up on Shel Holtz’s blog regarding the trouble with podcasting. That is, why hasn’t it gone mainstream and attracted the kind of monetization and popularity achieved by online video?
Some, like Chris Brogan (though his position is not quite as steadfast as some imply, definitely review his comments on the post), may [...]

I’ve avoided the slideshow craze for as long as possible. I never bothered embedding one on my MySpace page, and was consistently annoyed when others did so (really, MySpace is hard to look at sometimes).
