Solo Tech Journalism: from personal passion to writing for Macworld and The New York Times

Posted By: Laura Foy | Jul 26th, 2006 @ 10:00 AM
Self-proclaimed ‘Unsolicited Pundit’ Glenn Fleishmann came by to share his thoughts on being a one-man journalistic force. Glenn talks about his focus on the wireless industry and the larger goal of explaining complex technology easily and making a name for himself in the process. We pried into his vault of expertise to learn more about cell phones on airplanes, testing WiFi access points, and how what you study in school rarely influences what pays the bills ;)

We dropped in at Microsoft Research (MSR) to get a look at the potential for today’s technologies long before they ever evolve into products. Andy Wilson’s Play Anywhere prototype uses a clever combination of a projector, a camera, and a computer to develop what is probably the most intuitive human interface for digital information yet (Minority Report anyone?). Andy showed us the Coffee Compass, which could certainly become a popular in-car hack.

Everyone on the team has headed off to Mix 06, except for Tina and me (Duncan), so I've put up a video with just the two of us in it!
Interested in portable video devices? Want to know how to get our show onto your Portable Media Center, iPod or PSP? Then check out this episode! I show off some new devices from Toshiba and Tatung then I walk Tina through the steps to get video onto those devices along with a video iPod and a PSP.
