I need a status board like this for my life. Hmm, might be a cool side-project to make one.

The Panic Status Board - Panic Blog

This is probably the busiest year in Panic’s history. This is good. But a lot of things happening mean a high chance that I, the man who lives and breathes Panic and has a giant status board in my head, might not properly explain everything to everyone. Steve and I realized it was high time we made this Cabel Status Board public… using technology! So, with partial inspiration, Neven, Steve an...

Oh, hey look! Google Wave got email notifications - about time.

Google Wave May Finally Tread Water With Email Notifications - TechCrunch

Remember Google Wave? No, not Google Buzz — Wave, that other social information pump that Google launched last year. It’s hard to blame you if you don’t. While Google’s goals are ambitious with Wave, many users couldn’t figure out what to do with it, or why they needed it in their lives. Perhaps more importantly, it was basically impossible to know if someone was talking to you in Wave unless y...

Oh, new TiVo boxes, sweet!

The TiVo Premiere Has Landed: New Remotes, Wi-Fi Connectors, and DVRs - TechCrunch

Finally. We finally have new TiVo models. The TiVo HD XL launched a long year and half ago and the UI is even older. But that's behind us now, the TiVo Premier is here and it's (nearly) everything we need in a DVR. Everything is different: the hardware, the interface, even the remote. (QWERTY!) With the TiVo Premier comes a new interface that's been designed to present web videos just like live...

Check out this video of Roger Ebert using his voice for the first time since 2006 (via Oprah). It's absolutely amazing. Read the entire story in Esquire here: http://www.esquire.com/features/roger-ebert-0310-2. It's worth the read.

Amazingly, DVD Commentary Helped Give Roger Ebert His Voice Back - TechCrunch

Film critic Roger Ebert has been unable to speak with his own voice since 2006, when he underwent surgery related to his battle with thyroid cancer. Since then, he’s been using a computerized voice (notably, “Alex,” a voice built-in to Mac OS X), to communicate all this time. But today on Oprah, he’s debuting a new computerized voice: his own. If you watch the video at the bottom of this post,...

I'm totally fascinated by Curling. If there was ever an Olympic sport that I might be good at, Curling would be it.

That Sound #88 - I Like Canadian Music - That Sound :: Hosted by Dave Cusick, the best new music.
A couple weeks ago, the Olympic Flame passed by my house. I didn’t even know it was going to, but all of a sudden, hundreds of people were lining the streets. Until that point, I had actually been rather cynical about the Olympics taking place in the Vancouver area. “As if there aren’t five times too many people here already.” When the flame passed, I started warming up to the idea.
