Layer Tennis Two’fer

Friday, January 25th, 2008

I’ve talked about it before, but in case you’ve forgotten about it (or lost faith during some of those non-Photoshop matches), let me remind you that today marks the end of the Layer Tennis season. And what better way to go than holding not one, but two outstanding matches today at 3:00pm EST:

Chris Glass vs. [...]

Everywhere

Wednesday, January 23rd, 2008

Today in the mail I received a copy of Everywhere magazine (issue #1). This is a magazine that is put out by 8020 Publications in the same spirit as their flagship product, JPG magazine.
Everywhere is dedicated to travel photography and stories from the road. What’s the catch? Like JPG — which I subscribed to for [...]

Cloverfield Review

Sunday, January 20th, 2008

Well, I didn’t exactly catch a 01-18-08 screening of the movie, but I did manage to see it opening weekend before I’d really heard anything too revealing or spoiler’ish about the film (let alone getting a good look at the Cloverfield beforehand).

The Orange E

Sunday, January 13th, 2008

I was looking at my site stats the other day and realized that the two (and only) requested files that were not being found on my site were the favicon.ico and robots.txt files. As such, this weekend I set about correcting this problem.
The favicon file is that little picture that appears to the left of [...]

ilovebees

Thursday, January 10th, 2008

If the title of this post doesn’t mean anything to you, then maybe you’re unaware of the massive marketing campaigns known as ARGs (Alternative Reality Games) that are taking place on the internet and in the ‘real world’ around us. ilovebees probably wasn’t the first of it’s kind, although it may have been one of [...]
