hee hee. i love my unpaid job. eddie talked at the first creative commons salon and after, i asked lawrence lessig to chat with me in the flickr photo booth at shine.
it was hard for me to make fun of him, so hopefully eddie can drop in some good edits.
heading off to sxsw tomorrow, so we'll get lots of good folks there. eddie's talking on a vlog panel with schlomo on tuesday.
so, my new favorite person of the year (josh kinberg) is favorite of some other ppl too! dugg twice in one day on digg.
kent bye is working on a collaborative filmmaking thingy called echo chamber project. without going into details (we'll do that on the GETV episode...maybe if my ritalin doesn't wear off) it's an alternative way to make journalistic media.
here's a perfect example. did i have to read anything to find out that Mullenweg launched Automattic? nope. just flickr.
david weekly's superhappydevhouse #6 was ripe with geeks for interviewing. i was so excited to see some of them that i didn't ask them anything, just gushed at their code. i'll have to really start planning ahead now so i have questions for the stars. check for episodes at geekentertainment.tv
eddie and i were out at Modern Times bookstore covering Sex Machines and i interviewed violet blue who had some bad news for us and it's a breaking story.
basically, tribe decided to voluntarily conform to the crazy 2257 laws and in the process is most likely going to shut down many of the tribes that have made tribe what is is today.
"mccarthy 2.0," said eric rice.
if you go to violet's link , she explains the story in detail and our interview with her will be up friday on geekentertainment.tv.

so how much do i love doing Geek Entertainment Television? THIS MUCH. seriously, i'm still in shock about how much fun it is and how lucky i am to get to talk to some amazingly awsome people. look, here i talk to matt -- a genuinely nice and thoroughly genius man. speaking of matt, i kind of made up a word while mulling over what to call the top ten sources of geek thoughts on coding, programming and the INTERNET. (you know, the big picture.) i wrote up a list of some uber coders and called it GEEKSTARS. it was sthing that i did for my fancy-pants job at TopTenSources where i write for John Palfrey. it's not meant as a top 10 list in any way. either way, go take a looksee. oh wait, buzzword compliance? TopTenSources is a feed feed. all up in the RSS grill.
I've been slacking on posting here, but only because I'm going crazy with all my new projects. Here's a photo of me, Eddie Codel and Schlomo Rabinowitz chillin with the Eric Rice show, of which I am now an official co-host. Or co-hort. Anyway, it's all going strong thanks to Geek Entertainment Television.
my new project with eddie codel.
