I was on the phone with a US television executive who has never released an app through the app store. I was trying to explain that the problem with the app store is that you don’t control the release: Apple does, and does so without favor or exception.
He said, to paraphrase: well, Apple will respond well to us because we’re a big network and we’re used to getting our way. Somewhere in the Mitt Romney camp, which will now wait for the update in which America is spelled correctly, some poor “digital” person is having the same awful conversation about why it can’t be updated right away. That may be the only person in Mitt Romney’s organization I feel sorry for, but I do feel sorry for them.

“Believe in Amercia. It exists. We checked.”


So, which song came to your mind when you saw this?  Was it West Side Story or Neil Diamond?
Or was it “Found them?  In Amercia?  The Coconut’s tropical!”

Car2Go - Austin

This is one of the greatest pictures of Austin ever.  

It could only be more Austin if there was a PA system in the back of the Smartcar (or strapped to the longhorn).

I wondered why Karakasa games was named that.  Now I know it was named for century-old animate umbrellas.
This is a friendly spirit.
A disturbingly friendly spirit.

"You can’t get a feel for what the artist intended by downloading an MP3 off the Web,” Veronica Vasicka said, picking up a lovingly designed cardboard cassette case by Die Werkpiloten, a German new-wave band. “Music was supposed to be delivered in this handmade way."
