So, we got our Windows 7 House Party kit. Here’s what it looks like. We added some commentary and subtitles, so make sure that you close any YouTube ads that may come up by clicking on the little X on the lower right side..
I love the Talking Heads. David Byrne has vowed that the band will never get back together. While I love Stop Making Sense, I love David Byrne’s film True Stories a little better. It is one of my favorite movies to put on when I am working late and need some noise in the background.
Stop Making Sense is coming to Blu-ray next week in HD and with an hour of extra content.
The DVD is available in standard definition for $22. I think you can find True Stories in the bargain DVDs for about $6.

This is it! This is the very first actual episode of the talkingDigital podcast.
Yes, we did do another episode, but that was an episode 000 – essentially, it was just a pilot. This episode actually features content and even a little information.
In this episode we discuss:
Twitter spam followers – Folks who follow you on twitter, but they never do anything but send out spam such as marketing info, pitch diet plans or tweet about how you can get more followers with their program.
Windows 7 house party silliness – It is a mystery to everyone whether Microsoft knows how cheesy/campy/horrible their Windows 7 party videos and downloads are. But is the strategy working?
Smart phone update – Palm Pre received a major software update this week, Motorola recently announced two new Android phones (Cliq will release Oct 19 and another phone that is yet to be named or shown) and iPhone is as strong as ever.
Forum moderator rant – Some moderators take their position too seriously and prevent dialog (the purpose of a forum) from happening.
Picasa 3.5 – Face recognition, powerful tools and ease of use. So long iPhoto.
