Today, Apple released an update to the iPhone software that includes built-in podcast episode downloading. Why should you care?
Here’s why:
In the past, you could only watch (or listen to) podcasts on an iPhone by subscribing and downloading on your computer with iTunes, then syncing the episodes with your iPhone. While I’m sure a lot people went through the hassle, I’m pretty sure the vast majority did not.
A software programmer made a nice app called “Podcaster” that I’ve owned for several months that did built-in, on-the-fly episode downloading, but …
Ten years ago I sat down with a VP of Cisco Systems and told him the future was video on the internet. At the time, he thought video would always be a minor, though growing element. He said “people don’t want to watch video on their PCs, they want to watch video on their TVs.”
I disagreed, and told him that in a few years it would be the #1 highest traffic driver on the net, and the #1 reason for people to upgrade their (Cisco) routing systems.
As I predicted, internet traffic is skyrocketing, propelled by video. 
“The majority of the …

Josh’s bottom line:
This still camera is exciting because it has a single large CMOS imaging sensor, which means the depth-of-field is similar to a film camera rather than a typical camcorder with small chips.
And it records Quicktime 1080p HD at 30 fps, around 48 minutes to a 16 GB card, or, output through HDMI (no audio though) to a portable recording device (which one?). The format is H.264 at 38.6 Mbits/sec, which should look amazing.
And, the low light performance looks great. It will be around $3500 with one lens, more as you add lenses.

We have had a lot of questions on our forums about interlaced video, so I thought I would write a series of articles to clear everything up once and for all!
Where did interlacing come from?
Back in the day, when me and my buddies were developing broadcast television, we were going to model it on film, which took a sequence of photos of reality, so, if a blue circle was moving from left to right, two consecutive frames might look like this:
Instead of the 24 frame per second …

When you’re finished with your edit, how should you export?
Well, it depends.
METHOD #1. Reference movie
If you want to export a temporary file as quickly as possible, export a reference movie.
File > Export > Quicktime Movie
UNcheck “Make Self-Contained”
Pros:
- If you’ve rendered your sequence, this is the fastest way to export
- The file size is very small - it only contains audio and pointers to the video files, no actual video
Cons:
- The exported file is fragile and not portable. If any of the referenced video files (including render files) are moved, renamed or deleted, or if the ref movie is moved to a different computer,
