Looks very promising to me !

Scoble Show
Robert Scoble just posted on channel9, that his Scoble Show is finally up and running ;). Looks like the first set of videos is very interesting. The Jonathan Swartz interview should be good, also will take a look at jotspot, seems to be an interesting product.
You can find the scoble show at http://www.podtech.net/scobleshow
Post at scoble’s blog “Introducing ScobleShow”.
Google Demo Videos
Just read one of Scoble’s latest entries on his Scobleizer blog and I think he’s right on the money. It would be nice when google would have a channel9 type site, where they show some of their products (they have an incredible amount of stuff out at the moment) and show some of their features off. And make it a bit informal, not marketing talk ofcourse.
Google Notebook
Google Notebook has been out for a while, but I just recently started using it. It’s really very handy if you want to keep track of ideas you have on a certain topic, or doing some research on a topic and want to save urls, and web content and want to access that from multiple places. Sometimes I want to save some work related links when I am surfing at home. Before I used to email them to my Gmail account, but now I save them in my Google Notebook.
As you can see it sits quietly in the bottom of the screen if you have installed the firefox extention. Then you can select a piece of the site you’re looking at, bring up the google notebook and then select add note. Then you can add some text of your own, if you want to, give it a title and you’re set ;).
So if you havent tried it out, I’d say give it a shot. It’s free anyway, so you can’t go wrong ;).
Apple news
Just like every other blog out there I’ll post a link to Apple news from the Keynote speech of this tuesday (sept 12th). MacInTouch has a nice roundup. Downloading iTunes 7 as we speak ;).
Sunday stroll
Put up some more pictures of today’s walk on flickr. Very nice autumn weather, but a little too bright for my rookie photographer’s skills :).
Site Update (sidebar blues no more)
Update this site using the new version of K2 0.9.1. The developers have done an excellent job, especially on the backend. No more sidebar blues, because you can now totally customize the sidebar with modules, that you can drag and drop, insert custom php code (like the tagcloud on the right) and html (like the technorati link and feedburner rss icon).
Also added a new K2 style named Sawchuck. Named after a fearless hockey goalie.
