If I didn’t love my job:
56 years ago
So, I still get emails from job posting sites from when I first moved here, and this is one I got today:
How awesome does that sound?! Working in the game division for Lucas Arts? In their brand-new homebase in the Presidio? Too bad I really do love my job (and um… too bad I don’t know how to make video games). Is this for Galaxies, or something new?
CNBC loves YouTube
4Today, Brian Cooley was interviewed on CNBC about America Airlines and the subpoenas that they’ve given to Google and YouTube. According to news.com:
Someone uploaded part of a video used to train flight attendants on YouTube and Google Video. The airline subpoenaed those companies on Feb. 21 under the controversial Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), according to airline spokesman Tim Wagner. Under the provisions of the DMCA, companies have the right to request information in the event that their copyright materials are infringed upon.
The video in question, titled “Flight Attendant, Upside Down,” is under copyright, Wagner said.
Ok, that’s all well and good. Pretty interesting, right? Well during the taping, CNBC used some rather eye-catching b-roll for the part about YouTube.
This was it. Good choice, guys. Please keep in mind that this is going on while Brian is trying to discuss copyright and the DMCA and all that important stuff. So ridiculous.
Like a virgin.

I made my acting debut last night, as the virginal prey for Madame Bathory, a real vampire from days of yore. Gonna be on the History Channel, probably in October! Stay tuned! A few more pictures are on my Flickr page.

Whaaaa?? Now what am I going to do?? Seriously, a major bummer. And this is going to affect Macworld in the worst kind of way. They can’t compare the the sheer numbers of CES.
