Color of my Sound
Here’s a neat flash app that maps sounds to colors. Seen on Information Aesthetics.
Secondlife as concert venue
I love the trend towards virtual concert venues. Might still be a bit more of a PR move then an actual money maker right now (all though good PR does equal money), but you can bet that in the future, this kind of stuff will be common place, and a cash generator.
Duran Duran keyboardist Nick Rhodes says:
“We are hoping to give the crowd that come to the virtual concert a real immersive experience, so they can interact with us and react while we are stage. New technologies, such as Second Life, will become an enormous part of the music industry in the future.”
Amen.
Apartment hunting, lazyweb style
Many people have discussed the concept of the Lazy Web which according to wikipedia, states in part that:
“If your blog or other publishing outlet has enough readers, someone will know and provide the answer to a question you are too lazy to research yourself.”
Nivi points out that the time of Lazy Photo has arrived. I certainly notice this, especially with colleagues like Kris Krug around. I just don’t bother to take that many photos anymore, since there’s always someone willing to taking that camera phone shot of my lunch.
So in preperation for my move to San Francisco in Septmeber, I’m hoping the time is right for lazy apartment hunting.
Come on web! Don’t let me down…
