    Never seen this one before...I especially enjoy what happens about halfway through. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L91_K-s4pMM

    Are we shooting bad B-movies?

    I think most people have seen the brief clip from Charlie Brooker's "Newswipe", on the BBC, where he demonstrates a typical package. Of course, "Newswipe" is a full, regular program (or is it "programme"?), and immediately following the clip that's been circulating, he takes TV news to task for...

    Dear TV Stations: I use Firefox. Your video should work on my browser.

    I just wanted to vent a little. Firefox now has close to 25% market share. And yet, many news sites have video that only plays if you use Internet Explorer. Do the Powers That Be not realize what a pain it is to copy the link, open a different (substandard) browser, then paste the link in...

    Journalist gets 60 lashes

    All I have to say is...I'm glad I live in America. http://www.reuters.com/article/newsOne/idUSTRE59N1H520091024

    Tailor-made news...

    It seems to me that more and more, local news is being tailored to the presumed wants of the desired demographics. This appears to be women. I see a ridiculous amount of women-centric news out there: health news, keeping your children safe from sexual predators, etc. Whether or not women are...

    Great story

    This definitely isn't mine...but I came across it, and just wanted to pass it along. I think it's really well done. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C6vQCucl8E8

    P2 Help!

    I recently got a P2, the HPX300 model. No real technical issues to speak of so far; I'm able to shoot with it, and get the video into Avid without any real problems. However, the video quality looks bad. Maybe not "viewer will notice at home" bad, but to me, it's definitely unacceptable. It...

    Video Smoothing Software

    I'd have to see what this looks like at a decent resolution, but so far, pretty interesting: http://gizmodo.com/5313959/new-software-corrects-shaky-camerawork-by-warping-the-crap-out-of-it

    Scanner for iPhone

    For anyone out there with an iPhone, there's an app called "Police Scanner" available for $2.99. I've tried it, and it works pretty well. Haven't had an occasion to use it on the job yet, but you never know!

    Katie Couric

    Count me in as one of those who rolled their eyes when CBS hired Couric to be their main anchor, but I've been pretty impressed with her interviews with Sarah Palin. At least from what they've shown us, she's been relentless in getting answers. When Palin's dodged something, she just asks it...
