I see something in the iPhone that not many folks I’ve talked to see, and it may be why Apple’s focus could shift (HAS SHIFTED) from laptops to devices… There was a lot of chatter form Mac loyalists over the past week when Apple announced little news on improved Macbooks in favor of more iPod…
Something fisheye: showing off my new kickass lens
I’ve wanted one for years, and I finally picked it up over the long weekend. It’s small, heavy, and helps my camera and I take photos I’ve always wanted to take. Canon does not make a D-SLR fisheye lens (their 15mm is not a digital lens), and so I had to turn to after market…
A case against eBay to sustain the middle man
On a recent flight, I overheard an incredible conversation about how one large vendor not only prevents its dealers from selling on eBay but actually penalizes them for doing so. It got me thinking about the value of the middle man and how it may be preserved. The death of the small town or regional…
They are on to us; movie quotes on shirts
What used to be not-so-private jokes between movie fans now seems to be public knowledge. I have drawn great humor in the past from blurting out random movie quotes in order to generate laughs from my closest and rather cinema-sophisticated friends. My ability to pull out the most obscure, yet somewhat notable movie quote earned…
Discussing the Ribbit acquisition with Ryan Stewart

With Passion and Energy, you’ll make the time
As usual, I was recently inspired by Sir Keith Peters and a post he made entitled ‘Where do I find the time?‘. Keith’s post is in response to a question I have no doubt he gets asked a lot. If you’ve followed Keith’s career, and if you’ve been lucky to work with Keith, as I…
Walking like a man
Chase is walking full time. It’s purely amazing human evolution right before my eyes!
The Boston Celtics and our little KG
The 17th Championship run of the Boston Celtics came with it the early emergence of my 15-month-old son into the world of basketball. Watching most of the 26 playoff games the Celtics had to play to win it all, my brother, wife and I watched Chase begin to pay attention and even pick up the…
Sergio wins awards for his film ‘The Procedure’
Sergio Pinheiro and I were roommates in college for 2 years, while attending Boston University. Both of us majored in Film at BU’s College of Communication. Sergio ventured ‘out west’ shortly after graduation to purse a film career. His hard work and persistence has earned him what I’m sure is just the first of many…
Celtics fan now, Celtics fan then
So many know me as a die-hard Red Sox fan. After the Sox won the World Series this past season, many were kindly contacting me with congrats. They knew how special that was for me! Now that the Celtics are in the Finals, my place as a Boston basketball fan has been called into question….
