Phonebooth

Many of you know that I left my comfy position at IBM last summer for the much smaller Bandwidth. For most of the 8 months, two of us toiled away building out a revolutionary telephone system.

We call it Phonebooth.

Last Friday, we launched to the public. I had the privilege of being at the SXSW Interactive conference held in Austin, TX for the launch.

It was awesome.

We garnered quite a response.

Coverage by Lifehacker, PC World, and tons and tons of Tweeting going on.

There was a pretty cool video we showed at the conference as well....

Entertainment Center makeover

I have a really creative cousin. Her name is Crystal. For a Christmas gift for her daughter they wanted to give her a nice kitchen play set. However everyone knows how expensive those can be. She found a few how to websites of creating your own play kitchen out of old entertainment centers. I think they may have only paid for paint. Everything else was free. Here is her before and after photos.
