Courtesy wordle.net, I gave it my blog URL and it created this word cloud. Very insightful. Make your own.
This is my first entry made from my iPhone using the third party Wordpress app developed for it. I’m impressed with both.

My Directorial Debut
4 Comments Published by SparklesMpls May 19th, 2008 in Autobiographical, TechnologyAfter seeing Joseph Jaffe record himself on his fancy Flip, I had to have one. It was last month at an event organized by Tim Brunelle for his Future of Advertising class at MCAD.

I’m a self-proclaimed google geek. The technologies and innovations they develop are simple, yet useful. I love them. However, I’m not quite sure what prompted this ad to appear on my website.
