Well, I think that went well.
On September 1 I'm going to remove the links to PDFs for Parts 3. I'll leave Part 1 and 2 online - because they're good readin' and because they give you a good feeling for the book and all that. But the removal of 3 is simply a gentle reminder that if you're reading that much of this thing, i really would prefer you go get a hardcopy. If you read the first two and cannot afford the Amazon price for part 3, I will send it to you directly -- please don't go fishing around the web for friends to give you theirs.
I've recently taken a position with a start-up company and (as happened in 2006 with Netflix) I'm too swamped to focus on Droidmaker right now. But keep enjoying the book, and downloading (most of it), and let me know if you'd like anything else and i will help you with that.
May the force... uh, you know.

A necessarily random exploration of web start-ups, Pixar, Lucas, UX and sometimes Netflix. Fun? No promises.

Super LoiLoScope.... editing innovations
It's been a long time since I was in the editing interface business... but honestly, this is the first real innovation i've seen in a decade or more. From Japan (also unusual in the UI innovation department: historically the editing software from the Japanese companies - like Sony -- has been relatively lackluster as compared to the CMX, Avid, Final Cut Pro-developers.) Anyway, i recon this is the way things are going... Super LoiLoScope

The Culture of Netflix
Netflix is a remarkable place to work. Reed Hastings posted this the other day - it's a refined version of stuff that everyone who works there knows (almost by heart). It's a mantra. It really seems to work. And it was one of my favorite things about working there (i mean, besides the work itself!)
