Rome, New York and Cuba - John Worthington
Antarctica, Africa, Japan, someday I'll get around to all three. - Thomas Hawk
Now that I think about it, I could do with about 10 more options :) - John Worthington
I have yet to discover someone who: 1. is passionate about photography 2. lives near me *AND* 3. wouldn't mind teaching me to share their passion. When I do, I think I can revisit this post. Liking to be able to do so. - Michael J Cohen
Greek Islands, Paris, Rome - Sean Alexander
Tokyo & Africa. I have nice shots from Cuba, is a magic place to take photos. - Nicolas Caitan
Christmas Island, New Zealand and Antarctica. Headed to Bodie, Mono Lake and Yosemite today... - Jauder Ho
Vietnam (I went without a DLSR and regretted it) and Africa....can't decide on my 3rd - Benjamin Golub
Giza (egypt), China, Japan. I've shot in Giza, but it was about 20 years ago. Would love to go back there with more knowledge of photography. - jerry
Aleppo (Syria) , Toscana (Sienna), Guadeloupe (F.W.I.)...and many many more - Olivier
Australia's Great Barrier Reef (once I get that underwater housing), Mardi Gras, and perhaps Egypt for the third. - Becca
Cartagena (Colombia), Portugal (All over the place), Japan. Travel photography is my favorite kind of photography. - Juan Pablo González
Portugal for sure! - John Worthington
India, Japan, Brazil. - Melissa
@Olivier: I completely forgot about Syria. Yeah, I'd love to have full access to shoot Petra - jerry
Yemen, Kashmir, Deserts of Arabia - imran
This is a really difficult question, but one that'll be a lot of fun to mull over all day. - Dave Roth
Cambodia, Peru, Greece - BeeLing
New Zealand, New Zealand, New Zealand :-D - Kol Tregaskes
@jerry Petra is in Jordan. Amazing to walk down the Siq and have the treasury appear from nowhere. I have traveled to lots of the places mentioned and my biggest regret is not doing more people shots. They have so much character but I don't have the confidence to photograph, especially in a Muslim country. - CJPhoto
Chernobyl (city), the abandoned V-2 rocket base at Peenemünde, and the reefs around Rotan. - Chris Baskind
Ditto Thomas Hawk. My answer exactly. - Ayşe E.
Prague, Istanbul, Utah canyonlands - Jody C

This has happened to me... I also get drop calls where my call to my girlfriend or someone else would drop and I'd try to call them back 5 or 6 times and my iPhone would tell me "call failed" or something to that effect. When I go back to my Blackjack 2 I never have these issues. - Brandon LeBlanc
It was infuriorating. Esp when I missed an appt w/ my wife because I never got her call. First function is to be a phone. If I had any idea what caused it, I could avoid the behavior but it was working fine just 20 mins prior and went into the de-authorized mode by itself. After syncing back at home, all was well again... - Sean Alexander

"Steve Jobs has asked me to write a posting every other day or so to let everyone know what’s happening with MobileMe, and I’m working directly with the MobileMe group to ensure that we keep you really up to date. In the 14 days since we launched, it’s been a rocky road and we know the pain some people have been suffering. Be assured people here are working 24-7 to improve matters, and we’re going to favor getting you new info hot off the presses even if we have to post corrections or further updates later." - Louis Gray via Bookmarklet
very interesting... I haven't had problems this week, but they do need to fix issues quick before the fail whale wags her tail. - Bill Sodeman
The article is written in first person, but isn't signed. Ugh. - Chris Baskind
Still haven't had contact information or events go from my phone to MobileMe to my Mac. Maybe next week? - Albert Willis
@ Chris, I looked around for almost a min. trying to find out who the author was! Weird. - Nice Fish Films
I didn't miss it, did I? - Chris Baskind
steve wrote it in the third person (again) - Gregory Lent
Woah - apple has a blog? Rule #1 - never start a blog post with "Steve Jobs asked me to..." - Jesse Stay
Maybe the question I wrote the other day about Twitter would be better phrased, "If MobileMe were an airline, would you fly it?" - ScottBourne
Who is the "Me" who wrote it? - Sean Alexander
hmm. for Jobs to request this says that he is supremely pissed at what is going on. heads most likely rolled. - Jamie
Someone at Apple may call it "a posting," but there's nothing about it that's a blog. Also, how is it promoted to MobileMe subscribers. - Rex Hammock via twhirl
Oh good, you reminded me to cancel the trial. It's pretty but quite unstable. - Aviv
Paid for a year, totally unusable, get "server not available" at least three times a day plus sync load kills outlook, waste of time and money, the phone is amazing though - Patphelan

Windows Vista New Ad Campaign
July 22 at 10:16 am - Link
seriously? Who are they trying to reach with that lame ad? - Jasmin Smith
I must agree with Jasmin. Is this really the right ad for this demographic? - AJ Kohn
It's not like you can set out on a 2 year journey to 'discover' that Vista doesn't actually suck. And Columbus died still thinking the earth was flat, so how does that figure in to the metaphor? - Kevin Fox
Thomas modified the original ad in response to the comments at http://friendfeed.com/e/11ce54... - Alan Le
The ship is looking for a Fail Whale ;-) - AJ Batac
Pirates ROCK! Go Pirates! Pirates are much cooler than Columbus ever was. - Thomas Hawk
Ninjas are way cooler than pirates, though. - Harvey Simmons
++AJ Batac ;) - Sean Savage
It's about time they did something....anything - maxim shevertalov via twhirl
AJ, great idea on the Fail Whale theme. I added a second targeted ad around the concept of Microsoft looking for Twitter's lost fail whale. http://thomashawk.com/2008/07/... - Thomas Hawk
I think this is smart. They can't directly go up against Apple on "coolness", and they're not. This is more of an end run. In a way, it's similar to the Think Different (sic) campaign: popular wisdom says that Vista is bad, but those who are dispensing the popular widsom, though well dressed, are uninformed. - Jon Galloway
i guess i'm super old school... in my early days of modem surfing (circa late 80s), this ad would essentially have windows saying: it is cool to illegally copy us! - Rob Reed
I do not get it. - Dan Parsons
I've already been through this with some other people the FriendFeed thread mentioned by Alan Le above. I'm not going through it again but I will say that I think it's a great ad campaign and I wish Microsoft the best of luck with it. - Akiva Moskovitz
This is in no way real. - Aaron Myers
the campaign appears real; the crap on the bottom seems to have been added by somebody in photoshop. I like this quote from the zdnet article: "Vista is now actually better than its reputation. That’s a marketing issue" - Paul Whitaker
Not the new campaign. - Sean Alexander
Alright so this is the real ad: http://www.tothepc.com/pic/vis... -- They're trying to say "Everyone thought the world was flat" saying "Everything thinks Windows is the same, but get the real facts about Vista, etc, etc," or something like that. Who knows, it's not very straight forward. - Aaron Myers
are you sure that they are not just trying to say everyone should just be pirates because pirates are cool? ;) - Thomas Hawk
Who messes with Pirates? Nobody, that's who. - Kristopher Tate
I'm laughing because reading it out loud or in your head sounds stupid. - Outsanity
Pirates Of The Caribbean: Vista Gold - Outsanity
is this real? - Jeff Woelker via twhirl
Searching my registry for Spanish dubloons. - Akiva Moskovitz
But if everyone is a pirate, then it wouldn't be cool anymore, because everyone is doing it. Thankfully, not everybody is a pirate, though, so it's still cool to be one. Argh! - Jason Shultz via twhirl
I think the ad says everyone should drink Cutty Sark. Odd tack: if you don't love our product you're a blighted medieval-minded slug. - Michael Markman
Zzzzzzzzz - Sally Church
Arrrgghhhhh, ahoy matey, off to Limewire to get this pirate some new tunes for my zune. Arrrghhhhhh.... - Thomas Hawk
Arggggghhh, need me some Captain Morgan's spiced rum to go with my Microsoft Wording this morning. - Thomas Hawk
Hehe, I can't get the image of Ballmer as the annoying parrot sitting on Bill Gates' shoulder out of my head - Jody C
Ballmer should wear a pirate eye patch to the meeting with analysts tomorrow. Arggggghhh. - Thomas Hawk
Do I smell a tie-in with Pirates of the Caribbean 4? ;) - JungleG
Thomas Kincaid EAT YOUR HEART OUT ARRR. Seriously, it's like those crusty-old 70's paintings you can find in your mom's attic. - Eric Rice
Weird. Don't get it. - fbrunel
Dead Macs tell no tales. - Thomas Hawk
Fifteen men on a dead man’s chest — Yo-ho-ho, and a bottle of Microsoft Word. - Thomas Hawk
