1. HUGE thank you to everyone who came out last night to Jay n Bee to my going away party. The friends I have made out here in San Francisco are completely AWESOME. Special thanks to Aubrey Sabala who spear-headed the event.
2. Today is my last day at Revision3. Sad. Super great experience and I wouldn’t have changed a thing. If you ever wondered what it would be like to work at Revision3 I can sum it up to you in two words: it rocks.
3. Today is a big SXSW day. The panel picker is out and everyone is pimping their ideas. I’m doing a panel with three great friends: Jessica Mah, Chris Lesinski, and Kelly Sutton. The panel is titled, ” The Student 2.0 Revolution” and you can vote for it here!
4. Brett Favre to the Jets is still awesome. I don’t care if I’m a hypocrite (I hate Brett Favre), it is still great for the New York Jets.
5. I’m excited for the New Media Expo in Vegas next week!
6. Here is an iPhone app you should totally check out: Pennies
7. I’ve been working on a few awesome projects with Joe Stump and my brother Gary. Looking forward to releasing one of them soon!
8. I’m really looking forward to going back to school. I have one more year left, and I plan on enjoying it!
9. Happy birthday to my boy Damon Berger!
10. Team USA is going to kill it in Olympic Basketball (no doubt in my mind)
Check out this quick video me and my buddy made showing off an iPhone bug with the photo album scrolling:
Here are the step by step instructions on how to make your scrolling bug out:
1.) Load album
2.) Choose a picture
3.) Hold down picture with one finger at any spot
4.) Rotate iPhone
5.) Hold down picture with another finger (now there are two fingers on the photo)
6.) Let go of both fingers
7.) Quick scroll right and it should work!
