I just put up a Photosynth of my family room. Unfortunately you need a Windows machine to view it. But, this is a combination of 50 images I made this afternoon with my Canon 5D. It took only a few minutes to upload them all and complete the Photosynth...

Tonight there are thousands of college students around the world trying to answer this question, so I thought I’d help.
Next week I’ll be judging their efforts. It’s Entrepreneurship Week and Stanford’s page on the week has the...

Talking with Andrew Feinberg, editor of Capitol Valley Media, I was challenged several times about why I, other tech bloggers, and why Silicon Valley itself doesn’t get involved more in what’s happening in Washington D.C.
Politics and geeks...

Last week when I was talking with Linda Stone I told her that I tried to live a “FooCamp Life.” What’s FOOCamp? That’s Tim O’Reilly’s annual campout where he invites about 300 “Friends Of O’Reilly”...

A team from Japan’s NHK (top TV network sponsored by the government) is here interviewing me about Digg and Facebook and their impact on society. Lots of interesting questions and the translator, Keiko Mori, does an awesome job. She’s amazingly...

Francine Hardaway is here and we’re talking about obsolete skills. Things we used to know that no longer are very useful to us. Here’s some we came up with. How many can you come up with?
1. Dialing a rotary phone.
2. Putting a needle on a...

Gavin Longhurst, Vice President of Business Development for BigWorld Technology, showed me some cool new face detection software, called “Seeing Machines,” yesterday at the Stanford University Metaverse Summit, which I got onto my Qik channel...

You’ve heard of Diggnation or the GigaOm show, right? Well, my friend Jim Lauderback, CEO of Revision 3, the folks who do a range of Internet video shows, including Diggnation, invited me over for their 4 p.m. Friday video afternoon. On the screen...

Ahh, there’s a big debate about which is better, Seattle or Silicon Valley.
There are things to like about both (I’ve lived in both places).
But for me there’s no option: I couldn’t do what I do anywhere else in the world than...

Linda Stone is a former executive who worked at Apple and Microsoft. Has been doing all sorts of research over the years and is probably most famous for coming up with the term “continuous partial attention.” Which, basically, explains our...

Yesterday Kevin Schofield, general manager of Microsoft Research, invited Rocky and me over to tour Microsof’s cool new research building which opened three months ago. Building 99. We’ll have a video of this tour up on March 3, as part of...

Astute watchers of Scoble’s temple of ego (cute site, by the way, that one of my readers built — it shows everything I do including Twitter, Flickr, Google Reader, and other sites) know that I’ve been goofing off. I haven’t been...

Laurent Haug, the guy who started the LIFT conference in Geneva, invited me up to his friend’s chalet, near Villars, where he proceeded to show my camera some early 1900’s blogging that was written on the ceiling of the chalet. What was really...

Flavio Rump, in this Qik video, asks something very interesting: is the DataPortability.org just PR? He’s been kicked off of several social networks for trying to import JUST NAMES into Facebook. Wants to know if any social network is actually changing...

One of the reasons I went with Fast Company instead of other places is that they are investing a lot on their online properties. FastCompany.com today turned on its new look and a new social network. My new boss, Ed Sussman, talks about the new stuff...

I’m so disappointed. Yahoo just turned on a live video service. It’s the top item on TechMeme. I thought I’d try it here at LIFT. But, I find some bad things:
1. The service doesn’t work. Says “Yahoo! Live is an experimental...

Lots of systems are integrating into Twitter. The Qik.com live cell phone streaming system lets me tell my Twitter followers that I’m sending live streaming video. I just hit “55″ on my phone and it automatically sends a message to Twitter...

Let’s see. I’m on Twitter, Facebook, Wordpress, Upcoming, Pownce, Plaxo, Yelp, MySpace, Flickr, Dopplr, and a few others.
The problem? They don’t know about each other.
Google, today, with its new Social Graph API, is trying to hook...

I just got an invite from DotSub’s CEO, Michael Smolen to come along with him and Joi Ito to see Larry Lessig’s last speech on Free Culture. Weird, seeing my last post. Of course I’ll put part of it on my Qik channel! By the way, my...

One advantage of putting all my photos into the public domain? People are now uploading them to Wikipedia. Like this entry for AT&T’s CEO. All my photos are in the public domain now. You can use them without even attributing them, or giving...

A couple of days ago Shel Israel announced that he was joining FastCompany.tv — the online business and technology video network that I’m heading.
The announcement is true, and I’m excited by what Shel brings to the table. We’re...

At Davos last week I met some remarkable technologists. But one guy who I had never heard of before had an interesting story: his firm turns methane gas into diamonds. Hence my sensationalistic headline of turning farts to diamonds (farts contain mostly...

Enough said. I saw the movie last night with the Kyte.tv team. It’s a great use of 3D and Imax technology. Make sure you see it at an Imax theater. If you don’t like U2 or Bono, though, stay home cause this is a 3D concert experience. Share...

Yossi Vardi has made my time here in Davos simply incredible. I am in deeply in his debt for what he’s personally done for me. The Shabbat dinner he took me to last night was simply incredible. I filmed an intimate religious ceremony there. It is...

I’m attending a concert tonight, then going skiing tomorrow. On Monday I’m traveling. So, probably won’t see you for 48 hours. Which is just fine cause I put up 48 videos from the World Economic Forum you can watch.
UPDATE: Thanks Shel...
