As social media evolves, it appears that tribes are being created online. Small groups of influential people are congregating in various social media sites and helping each other create more influence. This appears to be a relatively new phenomenon. There are several sites out there that gauge our social influence. They take our actions on [...]
LG kicked off press day here at CES. LG Mobile connected with Mobile Local Social back in December and invited me to come out and blog about their event and give our honest take on their new product line. However, after the press event, I can say I am very impressed. 2011 is going to [...]
Just hanging out on Twitter today when I saw this tweet from @adamostrow, Editor-in-Chief at Mashable, about the negative comments on facebook about their Justin Bieber contest. . . yep.

Seriously. This will be awesome.
As I skimmed the iPad app store the other night, the one app that struck me most (besides Flipboard) was one that actually set way, way down at #55. It was the highly-touted Hulu + app, possibly one of the most hoped-for and touted apps by the iPad crowd. The price was set at $9.99. [...]
Gizmodo threw up some tech info about the video production. I love these guys music and their videos are equally if not more amazing. “The fastest we go is 172,800x, compressing 24 hours of real time into a blazing 1/2 second. The slowest is 1/32x speed, stretching a mere 1/2 second of real time into [...]
This amazing Legend of Zelda Wind Waker multi-track proves that I have no discernible talent. Freddie25: A Christmas project with accordion, flutes and other acoustic “instruments”.

The topic came up with a friend as of late as I gushed platelets over the True Blood premiere. His response: Vampires represent everything that is wrong with America. Ouch. Really? Sookie? Edward? Surely not Edward.
You know the rules, and so do I.
Social networking sites and the media have found synthesis these past few months, as movies and their twitter and Facebook fan pages have been areas where fans can get sneak previews of scenes, exclusive interviews and interact with their favorite actors.

I freakin’ LOVE this. Unfortunately, this isn’t an app, but some code created to play this song with Processing.org. So, you can’t download a player that does this… but WOW, someone talk to Pandora. I’d LOVE to sit with this rocking on my iPad, reading the words to the song as it bumps to the [...]

Okay – looks like I’m the last kid on the block to get the news. I read today at The Hollywood Reporter that Syfy is stepping into the ring of prime time wrastlin’. You heard right. The brand once known as the Sci Fi Channel that built a following by airing cult classics like Rod [...]
This is either the one of the coolest, or geekiest things I’ve ever seen. Dark Side of the Moon, Nintendo style. Have you ever wondered what Dark Side of the Moon would sound like if Pink Floyd had written it for NES? Well, here, it is. Brad Smith, the mastermind behind this, has a modest [...]
Mind-melding in action by…gah! Marketers!
I had the opportunity to chat with Joseph Matheny, who is a founder of Hukilau . . . . well in his own words a ‘Serial entrepreneur and transmedia storyteller. Hukilau/Alterati/Greylodge founder. In my words – a great f*ing guy. My first question was “What the hell does Hukilau mean?” Okay – a little help [...]
Scott Pilgrim (Michael Cera) has to do battle with the seven ex-boyfriends of Romana Flowers (Mary Winstead) in order to win her heart.
So awesome looking…video after jump.
Great video on self defense using an item that will soon be obsolete. In that case you may need to use your iPad in the same fashion.

For those of you who don’t follow the teen queen’s every footstep, Miley Cyrus gave an interview to Movieline.com the other day saying she’s really glad she deleted her Twitter account and that the Internet is “kinda lame.” She also tells “kids” to stay away from the Internet because it’s dangerous. Really Ms. Miley? Really? [...]
While it may not be neccesary to have this type of living content within every article, it definintely makes me think about how many stupid ads I would end up reading just for the visual/audio effects.
If the consortium of “Hulu for magazines” sign-ups join this artistic take, well then consider me a subscriber.
I saw this over at Gizmodo. What a great concept. Support this guy and watch his videos!! www.youttube.com/PianoChatImprov WARNING: Curses abound.
This is classic. Luckily, there are 3 periods in a hockey game, so that the Canadians can go take a leak, eh?
The line between video games and movies has never been more blurred with a spate of games that rival anything Hollywood has to offer in terms of visuals, sound, acting, writing, and immersiveness. And with ticket prices always on the rise, video games have never seemed like such a good value for your entertainment dollar.

There is a big difference between a milkaholic and a delusional alcoholic, right? Some attorneys do not seem to agree, and decided to take on E*Trade for $100,000,000 (yes, one hundred million dollars).
Tron Legacy looks like it will be a throwback to the first movie. Ending up right where Tron left off. Disney IMAX 3D to boot.
After seeing Avatar my husband predicted that 3-D televisions would be the wave of the future. He is usually pretty accurate with these predications as his job requires him to be, I however, said no way. Because I didn’t actually believe people would sit in their living rooms with the required 3-D glasses to watch [...]
