// April 10th, 2013 // No Comments » // gaming, Technology, Video

There is a lot of buzz nowadays about bitcoin. Some people are saying it is a good investment. But I’m sure you are wondering how it works.

The Lovie Award Winners Announced

// October 16th, 2012 // 1 Comment » // advertising, viralvideos, Work

A couple of weeks ago I was spending 3-5 hours daily for a week and a half judging for The Lovie Awards. I was judging Video, Montage, Game DEsign and a couple of other subjects like best web personality. It was a lot of work going through all the entries. Some were absolute crap, but others were exceptional. Overall I would say the quality was more towards the good than towards the ugly.

And it’s all EUROPE!!! At least that’s what the Lovie’s say. There is an amazing amount of creative talent, design, creativity and production Europe has to offer.

Let me know if you think they should have won or not. The Lovie Awards.
