Flickr Video: I’m not a purist, I’m an artist
from My Infocalypse April 11, 2008
Plenty of people are objecting to video being incorporated into Flickr, a photo-sharing site owned by Yahoo. Some say, this is a place for photos! or it will be filled with YouTube-style crap . And that may be the case. I personally don t have an opinion. I m an artist, I make media, in any form that s presented to me. I m also a paying customer of Flickr. I use the service to post photos from my Canon 20D, photos from my iPhone and N95, screenshots from my desktop and video games, and now, video. Today I had a thought, however, about this moving photo spin that Yahoo has been dishing out. That phrase is something quite easy for me to smirk at, given that there s only have 90 seconds of total running time, and video does not equal photos. So, I wondered. What if it wasn t Flickr who needed to change, instead, it s us? What if we turned the cameras not on ourselves, but away from us? Can we learn a new skill? What if we studied this new sliver of a video genre? Jay Dedman, one of videoblogging s early pioneers, had several videos that were just snapshots in time . moments showing that s about the only term I can think of to describe this. It s not us performing , it s us, watching, observing seeing. So I tried to have a go at it. A living snapshot: Bonus video from Jay Dedman from July of 2004: Freaking out, quietly. Thanks, Jay.

Eyejot = practical video app that doesn’t go kooky with the social
from My Infocalypse January 22, 2008
And when I say practical social media app , I mean, for once, it doesn t parade around my contact list, display every blink and sneeze I make for the entire world to see. I don t want to be crazy hermit man in the cave, but come ON people. Give people some space. Eyejot, is really simple. Video mail, the end. No really, I just record a video and send it to either a) another Eyejot user or b) an email address. It s free or 14.95 for an entire year (which gets more bells and whistles, recording time from 1 minute to 5, uploads, mobile access and the like. It works well on the iphone and you can subscribe to your inbox as a podcast feed. This is smart and super simple. Here s a vid: Feel free to add me to your addressbook, I m ericrice, or just drop a note to me at my typical gmail account.

I am the most unhappy not-yet-customer of Nokia
from My Infocalypse January 11, 2008
Who would think it would be SO DIFFICULT to buy an overpriced phone from Nokia (to switch FROM an IPHONE ffs)? I m already OVER the fact that I will never be able to go into a physical store to touch/hold/read-the-side-of-a-box. (I know, call me crazy for wanting to see/touch a product I ll be buying, wacky, eh?). Fine. Most online retailers can t seem to clearly get stats published properly and even calling Nokia themselves has left me with doubt that even they know (and hey, nice way to have your sales guys throw people to tech support and drop the sale in the process). So yeah, here s the video open letter to Nokia, who apparently seems to coddle bloggers and vloggers, yet you d never know it. Everyone else is an armchair expert I just want a company to confirm that something will work (for those that have offered up advice and links, thanks, now if only the actual company could get it together, heh). Short version: I want an n95 that will work w/AT T and support UMTS 2100 (so I can use it in japan). Whether or not it has 3G in the US is irrelevant, EDGE is fine. I just want to buy the right thing ONCE, but getting to that point, in a word, sucks. PS: Is this it? Nokia N95 @ MacMall

The Next Great Social Hack
from My Infocalypse January 05, 2008
This video became popular so I decided to post it here so people could comment on it. This is, in a way, the next level beyond the Facebook-data scraping incident. This is social hacking; social engineering. The creation of fake personas, carefully nuanced with mundane details and mediocrity, the fake average guy , when developed over a long period of time, can be an ingenious platform to scrape data, mine data, infiltrate social networks and communities.
