telecom, technology and the occasional floobergeist

I’ve got an abundance of bits and pieces of canadian telecom and internet experience, and I am thrilled to be in a place in time when all is changing, technology is developing, and the status quo is being disrupted. 

Floobergeist is a word that is beginning to defy definition.  The more I roll that smooth pebble around, the more it becomes to mean. Floobergeist started out as the magic dust that turns dreams into ideas.  And then it began to encompass the zing that happens when you have conversations about those ideas. And now, it’s the whole evolution from dream to conversation, with each step improving the later and the former along the way.

Everyone aspires to good conversations. They can lead you to adventures you’ve never imagined, and to people you can twig with.

Let’s have a good conversation…

welcome.

How Come No One Told Me About Splashup!?

I’m on page 28 of Connect! and stumbled across a photo editing web app that I’d never heard of before…. Splashup. It was 2 minutes before I powered up the Mac and dove right in. Splashup is to Picnik, as PhotoShop is to Paint.net. If you want to do standard editing, and take advantage of a zillion neat filters and effects, then Picnik is your pal. If you need to make something from scratch, and have all the power of layers, then Splashup is your buddy. Holy cow. Technorati Tags: , ,
