Pedal (Blog): Skip Perfection & Launch Early →
mikeambs:
Earlier this week I read a tip on The 99 Percent site, titled, The Beta Principle: Skip Perfection & Launch Early - the post made a strong argument for start-ups to avoid the drag of over-refining and take to advantage of early user-feedback. But, when reading, I couldn’t help but see how this “launch early” argument applied perfectly to filmmaking. In the last few years, since...

The iPhone continues to inspire new interfaces for creating music. This reminds me a bit of the OP-1’s display.

The guys destroy Cop Out. But what’s interesting is the bit where Kevin Pollak, who’s in the film, Skypes in to defend it.

Very odd, since (a) there doesn’t seem to be anything even vaguely “objectionable” anywhere on the company’s weblog, and (b) even if there were, what business is it of Citibank’s?
Fabulis describes itself as a “network that connects gay men with amazing experiences down the block and around the world”.

Reconciliation
brooklynmutt:
Lamar Alexander said that reconciliation has never been used for anything as big as health-care reform. Health-care reform has a 10-year cost of about $950 billion. The Bush tax cuts, which passed through reconciliation, had a 10-year cost of about $1.8 trillion. Lamar Alexander voted for them. - Ezra Klein
The first thing out of the Republicans’ side is Lamar Alexander and the...

He’s right. Fascinating and amusing revelations about fantasy, reality, authenticity, convergence, sensors…and points.

Geek Entertainment TV interviews Kool Keith. Part 2.
Watch part 1
A hilariously incoherent interview. Favorite quote: “I have a song called ‘I am computer’ cuz…I am computer.” He also notes that we still have to use our hands to grab groceries off of shelves despite living in the computer age.
No disrespect to Keith. I’m definitely a fan.
