Wall Street Journal on birding tech. I’ve got eastern bird songs on my iPod, and I’ll probably get a management program like birdjam, but I haven’t really found myself using it in the field. The real test will come once migration gets going and the singing starts in earnest.
In the meantime, anyone want to head up the Hudson for Ivory Gull and Snowy Owl?
How Sony Killed the PlayStation3, and NOT Just in Europe

Sony is dropping backward compatability with the PS2 to save costs -- first in the PAL version and soon in the NTSC version. They'll have "software emulation" to support "some" PS2 games. With a lack of ethusiasm for this platform among the game developers, the PS3 will be not much more than a cost-effective Blu-Ray Disc player. (By the way, Blu-Ray HD movies rock!)

This latest strategic error by Sony is the self-inflicted coup de grace for PS3. Microsoft will own the living room within 5 years.

I say that with the same certainty and resignation with which I said "Microsoft owns the office" in 1992.

With THE GREEN, Sundance Channel becomes the first television network in the United States to establish a major, regularly-scheduled programming destination dedicated entirely to the environment. Each week THE GREEN will present original series and documentary premieres about the earth's ecology and concepts of "green" living that balance human needs with responsible care for the planet. THE GREEN reflects the current tipping point in public awareness about ecological issues and the trend towards environmentally sustainable approaches to modern living. Presented by Robert Redford, the destination is hosted by award-winning journalist Simran Sethi and community advocate and MacArthur Fellow Majora Carter, two dynamic leaders who have distinguished themselves with revolutionary ideas in such areas as civic planning and global business practices.

Leading off each edition of THE GREEN at 9:00pm is the original program "Big Ideas for a Small Planet," a documentary series presenting the forward-thinking designers, products and processes that are on the leading edge of a new green world. Each episode revolves around a different green theme as it spotlights a specific innovator or innovation that has the potential to transform our everyday lives. "Big Ideas for a Small Planet" is produced by Scout Productions ("Queer Eye for the Straight Guy" NBC/Bravo and The Fog of War).
FOOD
THE artist Gordon Matta-Clark, who died in 1978 at age 35, loved to cook, but he could never quite unbraid his culinary passions from those of artmaking, with sometimes bizarre dinner party results. At one, recalled his widow, Jane Crawford, he cooked a lovely whole sea bass, but it emerged from the kitchen encased in a block of aspic nearly three feet long. He unmolded it, then gave the table a good kick, so that the aspic wobbled wildly and the bass seemed to fishtail upstream.
