My inane life… in glorious details!

An overdue update.
Jun 28th
If you look at the dates at which I’ve posted news here on this blog, you’ll notice that this month has been somewhat sparse for updates. Two updates for all of June, as opposed to the 19 of the preceeding month.
On the Celsius Studios side of things, everything has been put on hold until I can complete the pro-DRM interview. Fortunately, that’s coming along well, and should be resolved over the following weeks. It’s funny how things turn out – I spent a straight 24/7 week of editing to complete the initial beta of the film, only to end up having the final version take a few months to finish off.
Another factor though is my job. Celsius Studios is great, but it doesn’t fund itself. And on the job side of things, I’ve worked 167 hours over the last two weeks. 167 hours. 83 hour weeks. Fun.
In other news, I was interviewed by Binary Revolution Radio. Episode 152.
Anyone know pro-DRM associations?
Jun 7th
Well, I’ve been insisting that I need to do one last interview: one highlighting the benefits of DRM. The thing is, I’ve been in contact with 5 corporations that have benefited alot on the topic – online subscription music services, online movie rental services, makers of DRM products. However, none of them have returned my calls requesting telephone interviews. So I throw out this plea to the community: if you know of any pro-DRM association that would be willing to discuss the issue, please shoot me off an email.
Apart from that, I’ve been taking a sabatical over the last few weeks to clear my head. I need to step away from this project, breathe, and step back in with a fresh outlook. In other news, the Bittorrent links are back up. Last I checked, there were still a few seeders out there. I have to say that you’ve been an awesome community of support. From telephone calls I’ve received with fruitful advice, to the many subbers, to the people that keep on seeding – thank you from the bottom of my heart. I mean it.
No word on when I expect v.1.0 to be out. I’m not sure myself – it depends on when I get this last interview done.
Message to 2600 Ottawa people…
Jun 1st
I’m most likely not going to show up tomorrow.
Friday, I work from 9AM-9PM. After work, it takes me about 30 minutes to get to the World Exchange. Sooo assuming I finish at 9, I’d get there at about 9:30… At the very tip-end of the meeting. I’ll still try to drop by, but I have a feeling I’ll have missed most of the people by then.
