I’ve been toying with the idea of starting a podcast with some colleagues to talk about tip and tricks in a particular video editing app (and another, reviewing older movies with a film-school educated pal of mine), and now that Apple has added native podcast support to iTunes, it seems there’s no time like the present to get things started.
This could quite possibly be the coolest fridge magnet ever. Definitely saves your countertops from the ol’ edge slap.

Not sure why, but the page for the HD version of the Serenity trailer has disappeared, although the standard size trailers are still there. I notice, though, if you click the "Trailers" link on the main movie page, there is a "High Definition option under Windows Media, and now QuickTime. What gives?
So, I may be changing my tune on these guys. I was called on Monday, and talked to someone who said it would arrive Friday, and was that okay? Sure, I said. Then I got another call on Tuesday saying it was going out, and when asked if it would still arrive Friday, got a stammered answer, eventually in the affirmative. Now on the day before this is supposed to be delivered, I finally get an email that it is shipping, with a tracking number that’s not yet in the FedEx database, which indicates to me that maybe it hasn’t even left their warehouse yet.
I really wanted to have it for this weekend– that’s the whole reason I ordered it a WEEK ago. :-/
Over the weekend, I made an electronics purchase from Butterfly Photo, and this morning, I received an email asking me to call about my order. I figured it would be something like they needed to verify my shipping address, or it was out of stock or something, but no. It was just that they were planning on shipping it out today, and it should be delivered on Friday, and would that be okay? And also, did I have any questions about my purchase while they had me on the phone?
If the rest of their customer service is as good and personal as that phone call (even if it was I who had to dial the number), I can see why they’ve got such high ratings on all of the consumer sites. Can’t wait for Friday. 😉
