Once this PartyTime coupon is over, I’m going to work with Lance for a “Hydle” coupon code in the near future.
Working out a nice deal with Blackbox Case to offer the first ever Hydle branded product.
I’ve always been on the lookout for something eye catching and durable to carry my MacBook Pro from mobile edit airstream to airstream… and I finally found it. Best of all — Blackbox Case is located right here in my home town of Golden, Colorado.
With future products + accessories + finishes on the way… I literally love the “branding” potential of this product and am excited to finally offer a product to share with my friends.
Enjoying this handy small trick from MacLife.

I think I could scrounge up a couple other good Apple parodies – some that even include me.
Apple just announced an entirely new iPod lineup, iTunes 10 and a little black box known as a new Apple TV.
Although I personally prefer my original 5GB scroll wheel iPod – It looks like another holiday season is is going to be stuffed with Apple in our stockings.

iPhone app of the week = You Gotta See This! – Boinx Software
The app creates collages of images that you take by slowly moving the camera around in 3D space. The resulting images are somewhat similar to what is called “panography” or “Hockneyesque” (after the artist David Hockney).
I’ve been following the development and awaited release of this app for a couple weeks – now it is good to finally have it available.

Music is kind of annoying – but this is interesting. David Jon Kassan has some interesting experimental visual research projects.
When was the last time you picked up a homeless guy and brought him into your studio? That’s what I thought.

I couldn’t have said it any better myself — especially having come from being somebody like this.
Too many people are playing the game… feel free to hit me on my pre-pay.
A little long – but the concept is there and this is unique with some flavor.
Nice find Feldman.
