    oh for the days when you'd simply write on your arm...
   

first there were fears about camera phones in health clubs and clothes stores. now it seems that fear of the SAT's have engendered a new threat!

    unconnecting - reconnecting
   

rushing out of the lab on thursday, after frantically trying to "finish" what has no finish. the intense desire to "finish" is driven by the anticipation of leaving, signing out, disconnecting in the hope of becoming reconnected.
up late: finishing continues in parallel with preparing, packing. at 5:30 we leave for the airport. it is the friday before the start of school vacation: the airport is already vibrating, tuned at the intersection of vacation energy and the watch for terror. in the check-in lines, fathers & mothers with their children in tow struggle with their various collections of baggage; the line for security has exploding down the hall but is moving; people break out of the line to grab a coffee or because their flight is called; we progress until are able to lay our possesion out for the scanner. Finally, victorious we emerge and are welcomed into the inner sactum only to wait once more for a boarding announcement. 3 planes, 9 hours later we finally find ourselves warmed by the sun on that beach of our dreams looking out at the immense stretch of green-blue ocean. finally we are in a place were we begin to reconnect...

Gelernter used to develop similar stuff 8 years ago (does he still?) and his ideas were way more revolutionary than those linked, but with that said, interesting these CleverCactus guys in plugging video into their application might be worthwhile.
