Guy Kawasaki on powerpoint

Just ran across a video by Guy Kawasaki on presentations. Haven’t heard about Kawasaki in years! He was one of the originals behind Macintosh in the 1980′s. Not quite up to Edward Tufte’s work, but a short and pithy guide to power-point style presentations. From before 2006 – but still very relevant. .

Westville

Sleepy Historic Westville - guy sleeping at the wheel of a horse drawn carriage

A guy I was interviewing in Lumpkin, Georgia, told be about “Old Town”, just down the road. Since w Lumpkin seemed like the end of the road, I was a little skeptical. But I took a break from Occupy Interviews and Immigration Detention Centers, and headed south. I found Westville, literally just outside of town. [...]

Tall Ships in Rainer

Lady Washington under sail on Columbia River

Some times on May Day I join the masses in the streets. Other times I escape the city, and wind up doing things like watching Tall Ships sail on the Columbia. Lady Washington and the Hawaiian Chieftain were visiting Rainier Oregon. I “missed” their mock canon battle, but enjoyed a sunny, quiet day watching the [...]

A Must-See edgy  video from an advertising campaign from United Colors of Benetton inviting the leaders and citizens of the world to combat the “culture of hatred” and creating the UNHATE Foundation. I have to admit, I never heard of United Color before, but and surprised and happy to see their advertising campaign and Foundation. This is the kind of stuff I [...]

Recipe for Post DSLR HD production

Came across an article from Digital Content Producer today that looks real helpful. Haven’t had a chance to review it – but I think it gives a straight forward recipe for editing footage from DLRs, including my T2i. Hope to play with this soon –

Sumêg Villiage

This year after the Run to the Rogue ended, I kept heading south, into the Northern California Mist. I visited Patrick’s Point State Park, just a little north of Trinidad. The park contains a cedar plankhouse villiage reconstructed by the Yurok Tribe and used for cultural events. The site looked rather deserted and gray. Even [...]

Sometimes it seems like I’m way too busy. And my website pays the price. Someday I will expand this article – but this was so cool I wanted it somewhere easy to grab. Vimeo Music Store. Perhaps a great time saver. Need to check out how will it actually performs – but looks like it [...]

Wheatland Ferry Road Trip

This weekend I did a “shakedown” cruise of my “hybridized” bicycle – a 20 mile round trip between Keiser and Willamette Mission State Park, which is just south of the Wheatland Ferry. Pretty much in the middle of the Willamette Valley – just North of Salem. Willamette Mission State Park has several miles of bike [...]
