Innovating with New Interfaces Fire and Water Pendant Image by lunarpersuasion via Flickr I have seen very few people that are always on the mark Steve Rubel :-IS "Several months ago I had lunch with a major media company executive who told me that, in the future, content will not be subsidized by banner ads splashed liberally on news pages. This is something that the current economic situation is hopefully accelerating as display ad quality plummets to new lows. I remain convinced that the media must innovate their way out of this situation from both editorial and sales, but no one seems to be really doing so on the advertising side. If you want a glimpse of what's next for media then you need to really look to the editorial side of the house. As we've seen, that's where all the innovation is happening these days - and its changing how we engage with content. Here a look are three promising approaches and their potential implications."

The Internet Is Alive And Well (As An Investment) James Altucher penned a column in today's WSJ titled The Internet Is Dead (As An Investment). James is a fund manager and well read columnist on investing and he is entitled to his opinion. He puts his money where his mouth is. But so do I and since we continue to invest heavily in the Internet, I thought I'd take the opposite side of this debate. We (my partners and I at Union Square Ventures) think the Internet is one of those transformative technologies that changes everything. We see it like the industrial revolution or the invention of the printing press. It is a huge game changer. The Internet has been a commercial technology for about fifteen years now. And we are beginning to see the impact of it on everything around us. The industrial revolution and the Renaissance before it lasted a century or more. It takes a long time for such fundamental changes to work their way through the system and produce a new "normal".

City Councilwoman Monica Conyers is only the latest public official to summon the Almighty when the going gets tough. On Tuesday, when it became clear the feds were closing in on Conyers, she described herself to viewers of her weekly TV show as "a child of God," and told viewers "if you're not praying for me, then you're just adding to the problem." Then she added: "All these things that are going on right now ... I believe in my heart that God will deliver me from them." C'mon, councilwoman. God is not going to help with a federal bribery rap. God doesn't work that way. Just ask Kwame Kilpatrick. Nobody in memory called on God as often as the disgraced mayor. And the number of his heavenly shout-outs seemed to increase last year as the pressure grew greater. When Kilpatrick was in trouble and refusing to resign, he mentioned God so much you'd have thought He was deputy mayor. And in the end, God did not help Kilpatrick. He had to resign, go to jail, forfeit his law license, move to Texas, rent a house in a fancy suburb and buy an Escalade.

1) Do not assume that a cheap product is always low in quality and productivity. Same apply to cameras. Less expensive camera might be enough for your needs. All depends what features you are looking for, to satisfy your hobby, professional use, wanna gift to some one, family use etc. 2) Point and shoot Vs digital SLR: Point and shoot digital cameras may be easier to use, but digital SLR cameras provide you with much more creative control. 3) Camera grip: Larger cameras some time have small hand grips. The grip should be comfortable and follow the camera curves. Untenably small cameras have no grip. 4) Megapixels: It's the quality of pixels, not the numbers, which gives a high quality pictures. It's mainly the lens quality and camera's response time in terms of picture quality. In general 5-6 mega pixels is enough for routine use. 5) Speed: In low quality cameras there is a time lag between pressing the button and actually taking the picture. Frame rate of at least 5 frames per second is ok. Cameras with slower frame rates or of low memory are irritating. 6) Battery: Many cameras use proprietary batteries, rather than standard AA batteries. Consider an additional battery if you are going to work outdoor for long hours. 7) Weight: A Digital SLR will give a better quality pictures and can actually be easier to operate than a point and shoot digital camera but that's at the cost of more weight and more price. 8) Memory: Secure Digital cards (SD) are in widespread use and vary in their capacity. Compact Flash cards are the standard in higher end SLRs. Compact Flash drives and its software work with all major systems. 9) Consider accessories: The essential accessories are not always part of the package like memory card and batteries. Choose a memory card with enough capacity to hold at least 400 images at the camera's highest JPEG resolution. 10) Zoom: There are 2 types of zooms, digital and optical zoom. Optical zoom uses the lens itself to brin
