I cannot play a DVD on my computerâs Windows XP operating system. I see the picture, but there is no sound. What is keeping my movies silent?

You gotta be kidding me. Where's the logic?

Just a couple of hours to go and it will be clear which movie is getting the Oscar for best film. I was wondering whether Google Trends will have any predictive value and did 3 Trend searches. Release dates and other factors haven&#8217;t been taken into consideration and the whole exercise is in no way scientific, just [...]

One film old. A big film in the kitty. And now, a cool endorsement.

These days, anyone with a digital camera and a laptop can make a movie. Which may be why it's harder than ever to actually get that movie seen.

Gabe:  Kiko has finished processing the first batch of photos he took at PAX this year. You can see them over at his Flickr site. Kiko spent the entire weekend on photo duty and he assures me this is just the first wave. He says he should have another batch ready to go on Tuesday.-Gabe out

On Christmas day, after the potlatch subsided, I headed out for a run. When I flicked on my MP3 player, however, I heard ... nothing. Glancing down at the display of my Creative Nomad MuVo TX I saw an unwelcome message: "File system error." Grrr.

By Tech Test Drive, Pioneer Press, St. Paul, Minn.  Feb. 5--I adore Hollywood movies, but I'm often too busy for trips to the cineplex. Even movie-download and DVD-by-mail services make me impatient -- I need instant gratification.

Blog: Exact dollar figures won't arrive until next Monday, but Sicko appears unscathed by file sharing. Another film, Evan Almighty, shows up at Google Video's U.K. site.

I don't have an office, and I'm not running a conference, so I hope to hook up with someone, hopefully in the Bay Area, with either of these, to try some experimentation with FlickrFan. First a little background... My first glimpse of how wonderful news photography and screen savers are together was when I visited Andy Rhinehart at the Spartanburg Herald-Journal on 2/15/05. He had to go to a meeting, and left me in his office to check email, update my blog using my laptop. HIs PC of course went into screen saver mode, and started showing pictures of various political leaders in meetings around the world and sporting events, people digging out of snow storms. It didn't take long before my eyes were fixed on his screen.  Later I found out that everyone at AP does this too.  If you have a folder of new pictures on your LAN it makes a fantastic source of distraction. But it's different from video because it's silent. You can have a conversation about what's on the screen without interfering with it, or try to have a conversation about something else entirely.  This is something we noticed about podcasting too, that sometimes less is more. Because there is no video you can: 1. Use your eyes for something else, like driving, walking, doing housework. 2. Use your imagination in ways you can't with video, imagine what the speakers look like, where they are, who else is there. Once your imagination is activated in one direction it goes off in others.  So photocasting or picturecatching, whatever it ends up being called, has a similar "less is more" dimension.  So then I tried an experiment, I put an early version of FlickrFan on a 46-inch screen in my den, and when people would come over to visit I'd leave it running and we'd talk about whatever we were going to talk about, and I wasn't surprised to see the attention drift over to the TV. It's captivating. So I'd like to try it in two new venues to see what happens. 1. In a reception area in an office. Imagine one of the buildings at Microsoft. Or a doctors office, or the lobby of a VC firm. Install a big flatscreen TV on the wall, with a Mac Mini behind it, with a net connection, and let it run. See if people don't gravitate to it. See if people don't want to have meetings in the lobby. (I think some might.) 2. At a conference, like Demo or Davos, scatter four screens around the main lobby (not the meeting room), with one Mac driving them all or each with its own Mac Mini. Again see how it affects the dynamic. You might want to show pictures taken at the conference for a unique recursive effect. Or just use the AP news photo feed. Either would be sufficient to learn how it works. I bet we would learn a lot. Let me know if you decide to give it a try, and by all means please blog about your experiences, share what you learn with the rest of us.
