Google Causes Loss Of Books, Turns Society Into Man-eating Whales
Oh Google, come on. I have to say, I’m a bit disappointed in your behavior. I know it’s easier to ask forgiveness than it is to ask permission, but I have a hard time picturing a group of Google executives sitting in a meeting and saying, “We’ll just do it, and see if they notice”, […]
Snapette — My Shoes Are Better Than Your OS

Somehow, I missed the entire evolution of this process, but it’s pretty damn amazing, nonetheless. I know we’ve been trying to grow bits and pieces of […]
Digital Lighting — Sexy To The Max
Digital Lighting technology isn’t a new thing. It’s been used in large scale concert tours and shows for a few years now, but unless you’ve worked in the entertainment lighting industry you probably aren’t familiar with it. However, you should be as it is one of the sexiest things ever created. Forget the calendar with […]
