seems like a lot of the comments for this story are right on the mark - who wants to watch people in realtime?
im working on a mfa thesis (titled 'iam') at usc to try and get around that problem. with storage and bandwidth increasing, we are going to end up with more and more people moving from text to video. (sure, there are a lot of other problems with it, but i cant fix everything in a year. plus i am more interested in an experience than passing along 'data')
the elevator pitch looks like this:
iam is:
24/7 point-of-view video,
published to the web as serialized metafictional video blogs,
in a layered/drill down UI,
exploring narrative possiblities and new types of personal filmmaking.
and to all of those giving this guy crap for his netmd - i have one and love it. i tested out an ipod last week for a few days. different but no better.
the netmd battery lasts longer, there is no gap between tracks and no penalty for long tracks. it can record easily. (for someone who listens to lots of mix cds and dj mixes, the benefits are esp important.)
>Mozilla also doesn't support M$ inline frames or iframes or any of the other M$ created tags or CSS stuff they created because they didn't want to take the time to make ASP compliant.
hm. thats funny. the w3c html 4.1 standard includes iframes right here [w3c.org]
heaven forbid microsoft implement something useful or good.

sounds like the open/nmd project might be for you.

it just depends on what you want to do with it.

and depending on which season of the sopranos, yup, ive gotten that too.
and 24 just isnt worth anyway.
Observations on how this isn't a hoax.
Jobs just announced it. I hope the shorts taste good.
