6/17/11 UPDATE #2
The news source that corrected me the first time turned out to be WRONG!! They interviewed the father, the kid is from australia and yes, they were going at it.. Way to go!!
CORRECTION: Everyone has been sharing this pic thinking it’s a romantic photo in the middle of a riot. I have just learned that no. She had been stabbed. Yes, STABBED. He was consoling her. Someone stabbed her over a hockey game. A GAME!!! That disgusts me.
Seriously. Now that’s the kind of rioting we need to see more of… I guess the stereotype about Canadians is true… they really…ohh wait.. nah I know a few that aren’t as nice as the stereotype about them is,… but this is the most romantic riot i’ve ever seen. This is how riots should be like.
[img has been shared so much i don't know the source my apology]
T-Mobile slaps AT&T around in their latest commercial for the new myTouch 4G with video chat powered by Qik.
Quoting their tagline:
T-Mobile’s new myTouch 4G does things an iPhone 4 on AT&T’s network can’t. For starters, you can video chat right away no Wi-Fi required.
.
Ouch. I do wonder though how T-mobile would hold up if they suddenly had the number of subscribers that Verizon and AT&T currently have (more than double their current market share), the sheer amount of data being transferred over the network would most likely cripple their ability to serve 4G speeds as promoted.
Then again, if the rumors are true about the iPhone being released in early 2011 for Verizon we’ll soon be able to see a live test of whether or not AT&T’s network is truly bush-league or simply a victim of the cell-phone technology upgrading faster than their bandwidth capabilities. It’s estimated that such a deal would find AT&T potentially losing up to one million subscribers to a Verizon iPhone, that’s a whole lot of smart-phone users switching carriers in a short period of time, let’s hope Verizon can handle it.
So this might be last minute (free beer), but hey, who doesn’t like spontaneity? This Friday and Saturday we’ll be hosting the first PodCamp Denver (Free beer), and as you can see by the short little promo above, we’ve got some pretty talented folks involved with this project, including the use of an amazing space (free beer) courtesy of Manmade Media Studios (they also provided the intro piece seen above). We’ve got a great set of sponsors, one hell-of-a lunch-truck arriving on Saturday to feed you guys (though you’ll have to bring your own cash for that… we ran out after all the free beer we’re providing), and did I mention free beer?
Now in case you’re still wondering what a PodCamp is about and why there’d be free beer there, here’s the basics: What is PodCamp? It’s an un-conference where you lead and learn about the latest in all things new-media: social media, blogging, video on the internet, new marketing and PR, podcasting… and the best tools and techniques to leverage them for your purposes.
What’s the schedule like?
Schedule:
Friday evening from 7-9 pm, we’ll mingle (free beer) and then map out what we’ll discuss on Saturday.
Saturday, we’ll meet from 9 am – 4 pm and follow your interests down three different tracks. Your feet cast the vote… if you come to a session you don’t like, just go to another!
But wait, now how much will this cost? Price: FREE (as in free beer)
So how to I get there?
