Fade Into You — Mesmerizing Mazzy Star Flashback on Facebook

When I can, I try blogging about things I’m learning or trying to understand…but I keep falling deeper into Facebook!  I’m not the only one (thanks Jeremiah/Shel for the data) having this kind of affair.  This time I fell back to my college music days and found a wonderful collection of music (thanks to the iLike application) and videos from one of my favorite tripadelic bands, Mazzy Star.  YouTube is fun, but Facebook pulls YouTube and thousands of other killer online services together into areas that you control and share with others as you please.

There are tons of great groups to join and learn from.  Get that Facebook account open and join the huge Intel Network and groups for Intel Software Network team and the Intel Developer Forum.  I just wish we could upload and embed a video player so we could offer some fresh eye candy during IDF.

Facebook is a place for watching, learning, sharing, connecting, reviving and energizing your taste, aims and personality.  For business professionals, here’s insight from Jeremiah Owyang.  There are some things to be aware of, especially for parents — see this story about a friend of mine.

Back to Mazzy Star  — wow!  I got to catch up with some of my favorite tunes, sure, but it’s the new (old) songs and videos that mesmerized me.  I’ve never seen before.  It was even cool to see how people created their own videos using Mazzy Star music beds.Two more for an encore…

    Great stuff, peaceful music.

    Check out how this artist used YouTube to create a virtual band, an instant community mashup

  • A look at the future of the transistor from the Solid State Devices and Materials Conference (SSDM) October 30, 2009
    I’m writing this on the plane from Narita airport to Portland as I return from  giving the plenary talk at the Solid State Devices and Materials conference (SSDM), in Sendai Japan.  It is always exciting to visit these device conferences to see the myriad of new options that are being discussed for next generation transistors.   Before I get into the t […]

  • Day One - Web 2.0 Summit & Social Location in Day 2 October 21, 2009
    Fantastic first day and night in San Francisco for the 2009 Web 2.0 Summit. Intel sponsored last night’s reception in the courtyard at the Westin, right before Carly Fiorina almost declared that she was running for the California Senate. John Battelle tried to coax the answer out of her to no avail. Complete Video recap of Day One is here. Day 2 promis […]

  • The original 'rock stars' who defined innovation and integration October 20, 2009
    Today, a small team of engineers will be recognized at the Computer History Museum for designing the world’s first programmable microprocessor in 1971, a 4-bit parallel CPU with 2,300 transistors. That project, from a fledgling integrated memory manufacturer barely 3 years old, was a significant achievement that one can honestly say changed the world. […]

  • Documentary on Intel Xeon processor 'Nehalem Effect' is nonsense October 19, 2009
    I rarely write about topics with such vigour, but this latest video from a so-called documentary team is absolute and utter rubbish. There is no evidence whatsoever that the Intel Xeon 5500 processor can create the kind of data centre disruption witnessed in the documentary. In the spirit of openness, here is the video I am referring to: Here is the text tha […]
