Tripod work
Priest Frannie Hall-Kieschnick, above, celebrates at Trinity Episcopal Church this morning. I took the Lumix along, mounted on its lightweight tripod, and found that, by positioning myself carefully, I could cover the altar, lecterns and many other spots from a single positon. Trinity unveiled a vibrant new forum and services this morning, and a photo [...]

iLife ‘08
Well, we upgraded to iLife ‘08 and find iPhoto ‘08 works very differently from previously. I can’t seem to find a way to size pictures to the 450, 300 and 225-pixel sizes that fit the www.gulker.com blog body - that used to be an ‘export’ feature. I’m not sure the ‘events’ feature is very useful [...]
Barry, at last
I was up and tapping away on one of gulker.com’s Macs when Mr. Bonds stepped up to the plate at 8:51 PM last night. Linda and I both turned and watched as Nationals pitcher Mike Bacsik ran the count to 3 and 2, before seeing that amazing Bonds swing and hearing Duane Kuiper’s call: “Bacsik [...]
Paperless journalism
Here’s Tony Perkins at the start of the Democratization of Media session on day 3 of the Stanford Summit, holding up a piece of paper. I came back from the summit with several pounds of handouts, press releases and very nicely printed-and-bound Summit documentation, all of which is now in my recycle bin.
I didn’t help [...]
The minekey widget debuts
Here’s my first cut at placing it on the blog. Trying a hack…
Hmmm… not so good in the body. Sidebar… that’s better….
The new news
Stanford journalism prof. Ann Grimes sums up the traditional journalism space as “cutbacks, consolidation and Rupert Murdoch.” Nevertheless, 51 million Americans still buy a paper daily, and 124 million read one. Discussion then revolved around new forms of packaging and aggregation, trust and the roles of short form and long form journalism. It was also [...]
The good news…
The video of most of yesterday’s Summit sessions are already archived and play back fine from AlwaysOn’s site.
The bad news is I can’t seem to get the live feed of today’s sessions, which will not play well with my coverage plans this AM. Best laid plans… maybe I’ll have the time to learn to make [...]
Stanford Summit
AlwaysOn’s Stanford Summit starts this evening: we’ll be going over tomorrow to blog live from the scene. Supposed to be about a thousand attendees… some very interesting sessions, too…
AlwaysOn’s Stanford Summit
It’s been a couple years since we’ve attended AlwaysOn’s Stanford Summit. Tony Perkins was kind enough to offer me a blogger pass this year, which I’ve accepted, and already have a couple of interesting invitations from innovative startups. So, stay tuned for some surprises, starting July 31….
