After digging around I managed to find these videos, from YouTube user TVOvermind, and I thought I’d share them here – in four parts (since such is the limitation of YouTube). Part one. Part two. Part three. Part four. Update: Part 5 provided by Tostie14. I’m all at once excited about the last season and…

Shaun Inman, the very same lad that brought Mint to the world, is now throwing his hat into the feed-reading arena in a very different way. Fever is a download-and-install Web-based feed reader that has a "what’s hot" twist. Keeping up with a lot of feed subscriptions is a challenge and so Shaun has created…

There is no way to say this without sounding like a complainer, so I’m just going to say it and, well, sound like a complainer.  And maybe I am so I’ll just embrace that and move on. K? Oh, before I begin, let me just say that I’m completely open to the fact that I…

The iPhone’s geo-enabled camera, whether you’ve upgraded to an iPhone 3G with built-in GPS or not, now records the location ((A rough latitude and longitude.)) that the photo was taken. I have a few problems with the way this has been implemented on the iPhone and also how it works on my Macintosh.  But before…

Revision 3 folks are setting up for DiggNation. 1000 people are going to fit in here? Editor’s note: It turns out that 2,000 people showed up at the door.  The Revision 3 crew really takes setting up everything very seriously and they did a great job accommodating for both the recording of a live podcast but also…

Waiting for the bus in Hellertown, PA with Rob and Kyle. We’re headed to New York City for the DiggNation Meetup.

Joanne from Rocketboom, though they were recording something for Internet Week not Rocketboom,  interviews Brian Brushwood (@shwood on Twitter) from Scam School. Shortly after this interview Brian did the opening act for the live taping of DiggNation and did an incredible job.  Fire eating, nails into his eye, and Mr. Happy Pants.  He is definitely…

A sea lion? Yesterday I saw my friend Daniel Nicolas twitter; "there was a seal at the beach! yes i got pictures".  I knew once he published the photos I was going to link to them. But then I got to thinking – did he really mean seal or did he mean sea lion? Once he…

digg_url = ‘http://digg.com/tech\_news/Not\_seeing\_your\_Twitter\_updates\_Here\_s\_the\_very\_simple\_fix‘; Over the past few days the number of Twitter statuses popping up from those I follow on Twitter have been scarce.  At first I thought it was because I was beta testing the latest version of Hahlo.  Then, I thought it was a problem with the API and so Twitterrific would also…

The eBay Ink blog is a really snazzy looking corporate blog for eBay, Inc. Doing some digging I see they are using WordPress for their site, but they lack the "powered by" link anywhere in the sidebar and/or footer. Source: eBay Ink » an inside look at the wide world of eBay, Inc..

As I work on the next version of my site’s design, which is coming along quite nicely I might add, I figured now would be a good time to take a stroll through the hallways of Colin Devroe Design, Inc. and look at some of the designs of my site that had never made it…

Hello again from 35,000 feet. The last time I wrote up here, above the clouds, I was in a very different mood. That is because I was having a very different day. Today at around noon I left my house with my wife who dropped me off at the airport. The airport that I like…

Today I’m working out of the offices of Ma.gnolia, in downtown San Francisco, and it is turning out to be quite a day! This morning I was, finally, able to begin uploading some video from WordCamp onto Viddler. I noticed I was having a few hiccups while doing so, but wasn’t sure where the problem…

I suppose I might as well semi-live blog the second day of WordCamp. (Somehow, this post has been dugg, you’ve been warned.) 10:45am – The first session of the day HyperDB and High Performance WordPress lead by Barry Abrahmson and Matt Mullenweg focused on making WordPress run smoothly when dealing with high traffic sites or…

So a few weeks ago I asked for help to switch back to iPhoto from Aperture. I had a few issues that I wasn’t able to solve myself so I asked the masses for some direction. Turns out I did learn a few things from the conversations this post, and the Apple discussion board post,…

Gary Vaynerchuk in London Photo credit: The hard working Tara Hunt For those that do not know Gary, Wine Library TV, or Cork’d – let me take a second to catch you up to speed. Gary Vaynerchuk is the Director of Operations for Wine Library and began his career in wine at the ripe age…

If you’ve been around awhile, you’ll no doubt remember the lightning photos from last May. Hard to believe it was so long ago. Well I was digging through some video and I found the video that Eliza had taken while I took these photos of the lightning. Although the majority of the video is a…

Paul Scrivens recently said he’d like to see three "Web 2.0" companies (or services) go the way of the dinosaur in 2007. He also asked for people to post theirs, and there are some great ones in the comments of his post. So here are mine and remember, these are not predictions – just some…

A really great article by PBS called "Creative Commons Flickr = 22 million sharable photos". Oh and Kris Krug was called a moonlighter. (via Kris Krug) [tags]flickr, creative commons, pbs, sharing, community[/tags]

For anyone trying to access TUG, sorry. I have learned my lesson and will never digg anything ever again. Valueless traffic, that shuts your site down until the spike disappears. Lesson learned. Update: The site is back up, thanks to John K. and helping me get some caching setup. [tags]tug, digg, theubergeeks[/tags]

I love being up early. I find myself, even if I’ve gone to bed late the night before, getting up as early as my body will allow. Morning coffee while reading my dailies simply does not feel the same at noon as it does at 7:00am. However, I’m also inclined to stay up fairly late…
