On the way to Fry’s Electronics in Fountain Valley I saw this gem sitting in a parking lot.

Appearance on NewsGang

I had the good fortune of contributing on NewsGang with Steve Gillmor. I’ll embed the link if you’d like to have a listen.

Steve has been doing an excellent show every day on a diverse number of topics. I highly recommend following both the podcast/live shows as well as using newsgang.net to follow what is currently being said across the net.

Robotic quadruped is state-of-the-art

Jerry — Mon, 17 Mar 2008 19:00:31 +0000

I will simply say that this is not CGI. I actually had to recalibrate my brain to realize that this robot actually exists and at some point will find its way into real world applications.

I would also say that DARPA really got a deal on this one.

Support independent music artists

Stumbled upon a great site for music of all types. Jamendo.

Here is just a small sample from one of the artists there.

Stuck in a car with Scoble…

Jerry — Thu, 31 Jan 2008 20:25:43 +0000

I am not quite sure how Robert Scoble scammed a ride but here’s an awesome interview with Joi Ito on they way to see Lawrence Lessig at Stanford.

The discussion centers around Creative Commons and some of the changes and challenges that it faces.

Stream video live from your cellphone

Jerry — Sun, 20 Jan 2008 19:16:44 +0000

There is a new service that recently started up called QIK, http://www.qik.com which allows users with a S60 capable Nokia phone to stream live. The experience varies with the quality of the signal be it either 3G or over a wifi connection and the steady hand of the phone owner.

I got up this morning to a twitter from Jason Calacanis who’s currently in Munich at the DLD conference. It’s pretty amazing when you can sit down with a cup of coffee and watch live events from participants around the world in almost realtime with nothing more then a cellphone in their hands.

The system is also interactive since it has a chat client on the website where you view the videos and they’ve integrated the chat on the authors side as a video overlay which is down right cool.

The video below is from Jason’s channel and will either show his latest post or it will actually go live when he starts a new stream.

Definitely take the time to check out Qik and here’s hoping for a native iPhone app that does the same thing though EDGE is too slow to accommodate decent video but there is always wifi.
