Strange, wonderful stuff from a completely crazy day

What a bizarre day. Among other things…

Veronica’s show finally launched! I love it. The coming episodes are pure gold.
I got to interview #3 on my “most wanted” list — look for that on Engadget soon.
Google announces its long-awaited mobile platform. For the second time this year I’m genuinely stoked about the mobile space.
- (Side note on Android, in 2004 before Google acquired the eponymous startup founded by Danger founder Andy Rubin, Peter and I brainstormed for weeks on a feature called “The Googlephone”, where we romanticized about what would happen if Google did a SideKick-like cellphone. Not even kidding. Bummer we never got it out the door.)
Dick Parsons, the CEO of my parent company’s parent company’s parent company — Time Warner — is apparently out.
Screenwriters go on strike, and I want in on that action. I write for a screen, don’t I?
Oh yeah, V and I were on TWiT again. (Here’s us recording from our office.)

Oh yeah, more appearances, etc.

Was on TWIT #111 last week, as well as Leo’s analog radio show (The Tech Guy), WCBS (not sure if that one ran), and a couple others, as well as mentioned, quoted, or interviewed in the NY Times, Crain’s NY (I don’t think this is out yet), BBC (twice), The Guardian (twice), The Times (twice), and so on. Busy week!
