ProTools on the iPhone
Posted on 28. Apr, 2008 by Daniel Taylor in Technology
A producer friend of mine just turned me onto to something he was justifiably excited about, a third-party application for the Apple iPhone that allows it to remotely control ProTools. This would allow someone to monitor their fader automation and any sort of other conceivable adjustments from outside the control room, or conceivably outside the studio altogether. Real shit. No wonder Apple continues to stack mad fucking loot. Now if we could just get them to make the iCar, iKid, iWife, iBeer, etc, life would be so, so much better.
The Next: iPhone meet iNstinct
Posted on 01. Apr, 2008 by James in Lifestyle, Technology
Samsung is launching a touch screen cellular device that it hopes will compete with Apple’s wildly popular and equally expensive iPhone. The Korean technology company announced today its plans for the Instinct, which will be available to Sprint customers. The fully touch-screen device will be available in June. What will the Instinct be able to do for you? EVERYTHING. I’m lazy so here’s a lengthy block quote.
According to Sprint, the Instinct features a touch-screen with localized tactile feedback, called haptics, which allow the virtual QWERTY keypad and other operations to [...]

You don’t want to mess with DVD Jon.
At 16, he released software which broke the copy protection on Hollywood films.
Now, at 24, he released software that lets iPod owners copy music and videos bought from iTunes and play it on other devices such as Nokia N-series mobile phones, Sony Ericsson’s Walkman and Cybershot handsets, as well as any smartphone powered by Microsoft’s Windows Mobile operating system. His company, doubleTwist, maintains that its service is legal, but lawyers said that Apple would almost certainly seek to shut it down because the [...]
Autonet Mobile: Stay Connected Everywhere You Go
Posted on 30. Jan, 2008 by Ms. Nickels in Internet, Technology
Hey, Internet Junkies! You can now be your own personal, portable hot spot. Even if you live in a cave, there’s no longer an excuse.
The device that transforms this humdrum domestic into a shining example of go-anywhere, do-anything internet is the Autonet Mobile Wi-Fi router. Currently available only through Avis for $11 per day, the paperback-sized gadget plugs directly into an AC power adapter. Once a security ID number is punched in, the router blazes to life and delivers encrypted Wi-Fi within a 100-foot radius. Suddenly, actions unheard of in [...]
Steve Jobs I love YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!11
Posted on 15. Jan, 2008 by Ms. Nickels in Internet, Lifestyle, Technology
I sat here this morning on pins and needles, constantly clicking the “refresh” button on my POS PC’s web browser dreaming of being at the Macworld 2008 exhibit… and marrying Steve Jobs.
iWant.
The biggest thing that was announced during the keynote speech was not a new version of the iPhone, like I was hoping for. (What glee I would have gotten from seeing all my coworkers who just bought the new iPhone be one-upped by my purchase of a newer, BETTER iPhone). No, it was the MacBook Air that stole the [...]
For computer nerds at heart…

Happy Friday er’body!
Below, is a very cool video of Jeff Han from the TED Talks–which is a really cool thing in itself. Nevertheless, this video was recorded from the 2006 ‘Talks. So if you find technology cool, as I do and I know our CEO Bill does too, then you’ll find this video pretty ca-razy. It’s like iPhone technology but more crazy and in a giant computer interface…it’s a long video but watch the whole the thing. The end, in my opinion is the coolest part.
PS–Please ignore, or laugh at, [...]
Bill’s got an iphone. Run.
Posted on 04. Sep, 2007 by Jana in Comedy, Technology
So Bill, the headmaster/coordinator of everything and all here at synthesis headquarters, got himself an iphone. Since then we have enjoyed the lovely “I’m texting you from an iphone” text, “I’m calling you from an iphone” call, or “I’m emailing you from an iphone” email. I’m taking exceptional pleasure in listening to him answer the iphone ‘cuz his standard greeting has become “This is the iphone. How may I help you”
Basically this is more entertaining than watching a fat kid strangle himself with a household appliance.
