[Mark Suszko] “I don’t really want or need to watch *everything* on TV in 3-D. It might become popular for porn, I suppose.”
That’s a scary thought, Mark. I don’t even want to go there.
Ron will probably turn off our accounts if we did. I hit the send button before I was done.

Nice comments, Bob, but there’s far more chance that this cat will medically benefit from its high fiber diet, than we’ll ever see the American healthcare industry change.
Enjoy!

You might want to use the search engine for many great answers to this question as it has been asked many times before.

I have been to plenty of these kinds of things and usually after the event ends and the people break up to talk, the employees spend their time with people they already know. You can’t talk while the show is on. When it’s over, the cliques form and the important ones end up talking to each other. Those of us who are peons just stand there staring at each other.
Back when Charles ran the Promax event he was the only one I found that didn’t care who came up, he would talk to them. Thank you, Charles. We haven’t forgotten you.
One of the reasons I’m sorry that the COW won’t have a booth this year is that I could always stop by and talk with Walter Biscardi, Jerry Hoffmann, Ron and Kathlyn Lindboom, Aharon Rabinowitz and others.
Hunting down software company employees at a party isn’t exactly the best way to get questions answered. But good luck with your show, I am sure it will be the biggest one yet.Mark Nance

[BARRAL-BARON YANN] “If there is a way to post an image, I would show an example, it would much easier……”

Uh, Noah, that “misinformed” post comes from a guy who regularly works with small companies like Disney Television, etc., configuring their systems and setting them up.
Just thought you’d like to know, in case he chooses to run a few words up your bum. Which is likely, having read Bob in the past.

[Todd O’Neill] “There were lots of good ideas on the VIDPRO list about how to Web 2.0-ify Dick’s work, all very simple, but Dick doesn’t seem inclined. It seems a magazine may be the only platform for this kind of column, at least from Dick.”
Many people still see paper magazines as “more real” than places like The COW. They have yet to learn that they are wrong.
This page at the COW shows that over a half-million people a month come to this site in a month. The page points out that that is five-times those that attend the NAB expo.
Tim Wilson points out from time to time that many Oscar winners make their homes here and give of their expertise. Then there are all the many Emmy winners and those of us who haven’t won anything but have a wealth of experience and are not exactly idiots, either. Even the smartest writers in the world are no match for hundreds of thousands of users exchanging feedback, information, ideas and support.
Magazines like Videography seem to be adjusting to these kinds of market changes and are trying to find their own raison d’etre in these changing times. Part of this, is learning to make what they do work on the web.
I wish both Videography and Dick Reizner well and hope that they both find their way to new successes.

Obviously you are not really in business, are you, George?
In business, your name is one of your most important assets. You can argue that it is you and not your name the customers are buying but when customers get confused by names that encroach on your own, then you have to protect your own name.
As any good lawyer will tell you your trademark is only as valuable as your willingness to protect it.
Sorry to disagree with you but only someone with no investment in their business would buy your advice, George. And then they better be ready to change their name every time that they build some value into it.
