I’m finally inspired enough to take part in the political process here in the US. Sure I’ve voted before and had many political discussions but never had a strong positive feeling about any politician until now.

I didn’t realize so many people I know visit the InfoQ website. I was interviewed while out in San Francisco for the QCon conference. For those of you who are about to email me or call… yes… thats me. For anyone else who did not see the interview or have no idea what I’m talking about… Here’s it is

The interview took place in the same hotel as the conference. I look like I really need to sleep or something. It was a long day.

Now here’s a documentary that might be worth buying (or renting). This film is about four interns working on a software project for 12 weeks. The movie isn’t out yet but you can pre-order the dvd.

I’ve seen many of the dot.com documentaries out there but none of them really showed much about the programmers involved. All seemed to focus on the business side of things. I still found them interesting and funny but I was always curious about the technology and coding side to startups. Seems like I found just that on Joel Spolsky’s blog. It just might be worth the twenty bucks…or not.

“That’s right this company made a display that use’s thin air as a background and is interactive with your finger or hand. Watch the video. This is unreal and these guys are going to be millionaires if they aren’t already.”

This is amazing! I want to know how this thing is displaying images in mid air. The only downside to technologies like this are the way big companies will abuse it. If this thing gets popular I’ll bet it will show up in the bathroom of some popular bar or mall displaying ads non stop. Digg post
