Last week I threw out the idea of a documentary club on Twitter and my blog. Like a book club for docs. The idea generated a lot of interest, not just from friends but also on IndieWire’s Docsider blog and even on IMDB’s Indie Hit List
(I didn’t know IMDB blogged about things).
For those interested, [...]
Once again it’s time for Maker Faire at the San Mateo Fairgrounds. As makers from across the globe gather in the Bay Area, it will certainly be interesting to see what effects social sites like Twitter and Dodgeball will have on how people organize throughout the weekend.

I’m not one to rest on my laurels for long.
Having recently purchased a new laptop, I thought I would be putting my crafting biz on the sidelines for a while so I could get re-acquainted with my electronic self.
It turns out that not only did my crafting not stop (or even slow down), but [...]
I was on yesterday’s episode of Mahalo Daily with Veronica Belmont. The show features clips from this year’s California State Yo-Yo Contest and plenty of footage from inside Self Edge.
