WALL-E Rocks – Two Great Mac Jokes
Just saw WALL-E with my son, and in typical Pixar fashion, it is awesome! Two quick things I found hilarious for the Mac-Geeks out there.

Two Pieces of Eye Candy

Links to a pair of lovely (for lack of a better term) “music videos” crossed my desk this week that I thought would be nice to share as you go into your weekend. If you’re looking for something invigorating, then first view Tyger by Guilherme […]
DAM needs to embrace service oriented architectures
Despite intense needs among broadcasters, advertising agencies and other brand-focused enterprises to manage graphics, video, and audio through complex, enterprise-wide business processes, most Digital Asset Management (DAM) technology fails to meet customer requirements for workflow and rights management, according to research recently released by CMS Watch, a vendor-independent analyst firm that evaluates content technologies.
