Nice evening at the Hudson
Sitting at the Hudson river, watching all the lights of Jersey City, on my right hand the yellow and white lights of George-Washington-Bridge, an incredible numbers of planes approaching and departing Newark, , behind me lots of people promenading and enjoying a wonderful mild and exceptionnel non-humid night. Just started to work a little bit on a presentation, having a little brown bag with me. Live is good. (Could be even better with my family, couldn't it?)

Firefox 3.0 Add-On's
Wow. The new Firefox is really worth downloading. No matter whether Safari might be faster, the set of great add-on's makes it absolutely unique.
This Blogpost is written and edited in scribefire, and only this amazing little piece of software makes it a hard choice to stay with Safari (but I believe it's available for the Mac-Browser, too).
Anyway, I'm going to stick with Firefox for a while.

Fernsehmöbel?
Im Spiegel Online war heute ein Artikel über ein uninteressantes Event auf Deutschlands Strassen (eine Millionärsrallye mal wieder) mit einem sehr netten Abschlußsatz, den ich gerne noch einmal zitiere:
Zu den Gästen zählen allerlei Promis aus der zweiten und dritten Reihe, darunter Moderator Pierre Geissensetter, Sänger Ross Anthony und seine Dschungelcamp-Kollegin Barbara Herzsprung, Top-Model-Juror Peyman Amin und allerlei weitere Fernsehmöbel, deren Namen man nicht unbedingt kennen muss.

NY Video 2.0: My impressions
First of all: It was my third time participating this Meetup, and again I was impressed by how many people attended. Yaron is a perfect host, thanks a lot for organizing this.
Regarding the presentations. My expectations are a little different from what I saw today. I stopped watching TV (following a song of RHCP: Throw away your television) years ago for three reasons:
The Internet, and especially web2.0, the read/write web, seems to be different and I find it worth spending time there, because you can participate. So I wonder why lots of the Start Ups have tv in their name and focus a lot on transferring the old (advertising) and new (HD) TV world to the web. Even if I found the advertising approach of Adotube funny at the first moment, I'm sure that I would get bored and annoyed when I had to watch strange comic-like ads laying OVER the movie I'm about to enjoy. Could not imagine anybody being happy with it.
I liked the high quality of Vusions video distribution solution, but most of the User Generated Content would not need HD, because it's produced in a way that there's no need to dramatically improve the delivery technology. Quality was impressive, so it could be an big improvement for the distribution professionally produced content - depending on the price per minute.
Regarding the presentations. My expectations are a little different from what I saw today. I stopped watching TV (following a song of RHCP: Throw away your television) years ago for three reasons:
- I was bored by the programme
- I was even more bored by the advertising
- I felt a was a perfect waste of time

BestTV's product offers a video management solution for design companies with little experience in video technology to enable them to quickly launch a professional platform for their customers.
I really liked the idea of Magnify.Net. Their plug-in to increase multimedia blogging is not revolutionary, but I think an good step forward to help bloggers to make multimedia publishing way more convenient, so I'm looking forward to activate my WP blog and try it there.
I also liked the presentation of EkkoTV a lot. They presented an aggregation of all major IM, chat, youtube and up to five video-chat in one window. Since my interest is mostly in learning and communication, I'd love to learn more about their approach and have some conversation about how we can use a service like this in corporate intranets to connect employees or bring small learning teams together to prepare presentations or work on tasks cooperatively.
Overall, a lot of great ideas, people and presentations.

Talks Mark Bittman: What's wrong with what we eat
Very inspiring talk about food and food production.
My Blueberry Nights
Yesterday, I was watching the latest Wong Kar Wai movie. It's really worth it. Most impressive is the photography.
