Thanks to a tip at Skype Journal I now have a fully activated skype voicemail and skype in number with a 415 area code. I was unable to actually find a NYC metro (I did not want 718) number this past weekend so I decided to go for San Francisco…. Pretty cool stuff! I have … Read moreMac Goes SkypeIn Beta
iPhotoWebShare is a cool way to share your iPhoto albums or full library via browser on a local or wide (internet) network. I was playing with it a bit today and while slow to load larger (over 2000 images in a particular) albums it totally works as you would expect and lets you view both … Read moreiPhotoWebShare
Om Malik’s latest in Business 2.0: But I think these companies are focusing too much on the numbers and missing the more promising opportunity. Why? Because rolling out a product for the Mac platform ensures a certain buzz and élan, which begets more buzz, which begets sales. Let me explain. By some estimates there are … Read moreMissing the Mac Opportunity
Google has a nice project working for OS X fans…
mytreo.net notes the Hi Res beta release of 2Day. WOW! The resolution enhancement alone make it worthwhile… looks beautiful on the Treo 650!
Overall the Treo 650 is an impressive device. It is certainly not revolutionary, but evolutionary and considering the success and praise for the 600 it’s hard to fault palmOne for not pushing harder. First the Issues…. Of course there is the memory issue which before I got the unit I thought would be an issue … Read moreTreo Thoughts
Well – after what seemed like forever (4 months actually) my unlocked Treo 650 arrived today and is currently charging and getting synced up! My plan, in case you care is to take it slow adding applications and data so I can properly control the limited amount of memory. At the moment I am using … Read moreTreo 650 Arrives!
Amazing news for Tivo as they fight back up the stock market… Next year will be a big year for Tivo for sure. They’ll have a dual-tuner HDTV cable card box and installs in Comcast’s vast network. If they can successfully embed the service within the existing dual-tuner hardware as this news notes through a … Read moreTivo lands Comcast!
I just read a pretty fascinating NYT Cover Story on how our current administration is utilizing video news releases and and fairly extensive distribution network to assist networks and local affiliates, not too mention the American public in understanding current events. It’s actually pretty sickening and makes me think we live in a socialist country … Read moreThe Business of Propoganda
SIPthat.com reports on the alleged pending AT&T Softphone. I hope they actually offer it as a value-add rather paid add-on as Vonage currently does. Ideally you’d be able to utilize the softphone as an extension on your existing account. We’ll hopefully see soon …
Stuart Henshall is on the bleeding edge of the Skype curve but his usage and observations are certain to pass on quickly to a more mass oriented market. He’s lucky enough to be using SkypeIn (in early beta on Windows) as well as SkypeOut (available to all now) and sums up the experience pretty simply: … Read moreAdventures in Skype
I finally got confirmation on my order today and expect it to arrive by 3/15 – only 5 months after I ordered it! One thing Michael Gartenberg needs to know is that while the Treo is not Truly multi-tasking, it can do certain communications in the background … like email. ChatterEmail, recently released from beta … Read more…on the Treo 650
You don’t have to have kids to appreciate the humor here.
This is a cool move and one I have a feeling will do quite well. Wedding planning women (primary audience) are known to be somewhat compulsive in their quest for information. The Knot already has a great target group and they can easily market this to members within likely Comcast neighborhoods. Even if this is … Read more‘The Knot TV’
syncOtunes seem like a great way to sync the libraries of multiple machines. It copies the files across to another machine and imports them to your second iTunes library. I have not played with it yet, but would actually prefer to see a system that simply synced the library file itself, leaving the tunes in … Read moresyncOtunes

Surprising as it may have been, CallVantage did not offer 411 services until now. Adding 411 goes a long way towards completing the vision of making VOIP a consumer service. My wife never understood why we had to use the computer to do quick look-ups. Sure we saved a buck at the time, but the … Read moreCallVantage gets the 411
