I ended my last post with a question: What can I do for you? Shamir Katsu asked what he could do to reproduce the “Geek Brief miracle.” If you already know the GeekBrief.TV Story, jump down to the last paragraph.
My wife and I used to do Web design and development during the time Internet culture was starting [...]
We get asked all the time for advice about equipment. New media production, even using professional equipment, is far, far less expensive than broadcast production. Even still … better, more expensive equipment can set a new media producer apart from someone using equipment purchased from a local, consumer electronics store.
We started GeekBrief.TV with an inexpensive [...]
Our littlest dog Zoe woke me up early with a request to go outside. When I got back to the room, I couldn’t fall back asleep. We’re on a road trip from Dallas to Chicago because a couple friends who own a restaurant in Highland Park, IL are having a BBQ emergency and we decided [...]
Of course we registered each of these domains at GoDaddy.com using promo codes GB1, GB2 or GB3 to register each of these domain names at a discount, but now the list is up to 87 names.

So, I have an idea and I want to see if anyone is game. Here goes…
Researching and writing The Brief usually takes us half a day or more. Shooting takes about 30 minutes and post production (editing, graphics, compression and uploading) takes about three hours. Check the Twitter transcripts. It’s pretty well documented.
This week, we’re [...]
Cali and I both grew up poor, but blessed. Cali grew up connected to an amazingly supportive Italian family and I grew up raised by Baptists who introduced me to Jesus and home grown tomatoes.
We’ve been married nine years and we’ve put off having a kid because we have an amazing relationship. We’ve never had [...]
I doubt anyone reads my blog who doesn’t also watch GeekBrief.TV, but just in case, I’m embedding our latest episode here because it’s about one of the most amazing applications I’ve ever experienced. The app. is called Woopra. It’s in private beta, so you have to put your name in the queue to receive an [...]
Doing what we do, producing GeekBrief.TV, is often exhilarating, but isn’t constant, so it reminds me of an old gospel song that says, “I thank God for the Mountains, and I thank Him for the valleys. I thank Him for the storms He’s brought me through. Cause if I had never had a problem, I [...]

We’re doing a series on GeekBrief.TV where Cali builds a Linux-based home theater computer.
It is absolutely one of the most fun things we’ve ever done. We wake up thinking about it. We’re reading books about Linux and Myth.TV when we’re on the toilet. I think I can understand a little bit about [...]
