One of the thought leading places I follow is the Berkman Center at Harvard University and their podcast/webcast delivery vehicle called MediaBerkman, whose focus is to “…feature conversations with and talks by leading cyber-scholars, entrepreneurs, activists, and policymakers as they explore topics such as the factors that influence knowledge creation and dissemination in the digital age; [...]

Ah, the web… a veritable treasure trove of knowledge, an endless stream of news and information. Actually, it’s more of a flood of facts and opinions that would make even Noah a might uncomfortable.

The multi-talented tech giant Julio Ojeda-Zapata was on hand for the debut of the iPad in San Francisco on Wednesday…then he got his hands on one. We can’t help but feel a bit giddy that he loaded up Minnov8 on the “magical” device. See a recap of Julio’s Twitter coverage and photos here.

Totally out of the blue I came across the video below tonight, a producer reel done by Brian Stemmler (@bstemmler). I had no idea he’d won an Emmy for his video work. For those of you who don’t know Brian, he’s a videographer and photographer who has shot many interview videos for Minnov8 — and covered [...]

I absolutely love it when my new WIRED magazine shows up in the mail. Hey, I read as much as the next guy online (on my little 13″ Macbook screen, or my iPhone), but I still love excellence in print — good ol’ ink on dead trees. And WIRED continues to stand out in this [...]

As a longtime fan of science fiction I have always had a fascination with future technology speculation and why I (and most fans) enjoyed Star Trek: The Next Generation.
