it's time for a new camera
Yes you won't believe this but I dropped my camera at the Mormon Temple Pinewood Derby Races and I haven't seen it since. The good news is all the blurry out of focus pictures I've taken since with the walgreens cheapo polaroid - have been inspiring. Antishake though would be nice and I do miss it. Ashton Kucher and his ads for the nikon coolpics really have gotten into my head. Not that I am one to be influenced by advertising but this time it really has worked it's magic on me.

the vanishing personal site
Just read this interesting article:
http://www.zeldman.com/2008/04/27/content-outsourcing-and-the-disappearing-personal-site/
Our personal sites, once our primary points of online presence, are becoming sock drawers for displaced first-person content. We are witnessing the disappearance of the all-in-one, carefully designed personal site containing professional information, links, and brief bursts of frequently updated content to which others respond via comments. Did I say we are witnessing the traditional personal site’s disappearance? That is inaccurate. We are the ones making our own sites disappear.
......
Interactive art director Jody Ferry’s site is a perfect example of the deeply decentralized personal page. I use the term “page” advisedly, as Jody’s site consists of a single page. It’s a fun, punchy page, bursting with personality, as intriguing for what it hides as what it reveals. Its clarity, simplicity, and liquidity demonstrate that Jody Ferry does indeed practice what the site’s title element claims: Interactive Art Direction and User Experience Design. All very good.
It could almost be the freshened-up splash page of a late 1990s personal site, except that the navigation, instead of pointing inward to a contact page, resume, blog, link list, and photos, points outward to external web services containing those same things. Mentally insert interactive diagram here: at left is a 1990s site whose splash page links to sub-pages. Structurally, its site map is indistinguishable from an org chart, with the CEO at the top, and everyone else below. At right, to re-use the org chart analogy, a site like Jody’s is akin to a single-owner company with only virtual (freelance) employees. There is nothing below the CEO. All arrows point outward.
