It’s funny how subtle the differences between amazing and average are.  You can tell the people who made this enjoyed it.  I wish I had the time and resources to make films like this.

I can’t thank Cali Lewis enough for having me on her show. I just wish I would have thought about it more and used my less-nasally voice. Oh well, this is likely just the beginning of the world’s discovery of my awesomeness.

I met Cali Lewis at Macworld

I can’t believe how many great people I met at Macworld.  I haven’t listed them all here yet, but Cali Lewis is definitely in the top 5 of the coolest people I met there.  She’s the host of GeekBriefTV (GBTV).  She’s one of the bigger reasons that I work at Appletell right now.  She kind of got me motivated to find work in an area that I love, like Apple stuff, since that’s what her and her husband did.  They started a video podcast from nothing and look at them now.

You should know this already, but in case you didn’t, GBTV is almost at 500 episodes and does a fantastic job of finding and condensing some of the most interesting news in the tech scene into a short online video in HD almost daily.

I haven’t had the success that they have, but that’s partially because they quit their day jobs to do what they do.  Chutzpah?  I’d say so.  Anyway, it was amazing for me to get this picture, and she was nice enough to film a GoDaddy.com ad with me in it.  It hasn’t made it to the net yet, but it’s still very possible.  Thanks Cali, you’re the best.
