Unfortunately, I was not able to attend BlogHer '08 :-( However like last year, I tried to attend via Second Life, though thanks to computer problems and network issues, this year was very difficult. Was BlogHer '08 filmed? In other words, was there a camera rolling for each speaker/event and if so, can that be posted to YouTube or some other video site so that those of us who weren't able to physically get to the conference, can see it? Thanks! -Bob http://www.fluteplayer.net/

The lines for the iPhone 3G at the Apple Store here in Santa Rosa continue to be strong nearly one week after launch. It's 1:30PM and I estimate the line at around fifty people waiting their turn - wow! -Bob http://www.fluteplayer.net/

With the highly anticipated announcement of a 3G iPhone just three days from now, I'm curious how many current iPhone owners are planning to buy the new model (and what your plans are for the 'old' one -- put it on eBay? give it to a family member or friend?). At this point, I'm pretty sure I'm going to buy since I use my iPhone a lot! Anything to make it faster would be welcome. You? -Bobhttp://www.fluteplayer.net/

I've just successfully got going using Ubuntu on an old PC that was given to me a few weeks ago. Because the OS was a non-validating version of XP, I decided to try Ubuntu. I downloaded and installed Ubuntu, bought a WiFi card off of eBay and then set about to see if I could make it a WiFi machine. After many, MANY hours of failed attempts, this morning it works! If you're interested, here's the back and forth on the Ubuntu forum for how we set it up: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=553862 -Bob http://www.bobafifi.com http://www.blogher.com/user/bobafifi/track
