I have a new found love. Boxee.tv is exactly what I've been looking for over the past year and a half.
I don't have cable TV at home, but just have a Mac Mini plugged into my 42 inch LCD TV. It's great for everything, and I watch all of my favorite shows online and also use the Netflix "Watch it Now" service a bunch too.
Boxee is a stand alone app that consolidates all of those things and more into one Front Rox like interface. You just use the Apple Remote in Boxee and you can browse TV and movies.
Additionally Boxee will access all of your media stored on your computer. Now all audio and video files are at my fingertips without leaving the couch!

Seven2 Launches Our Own iPhone Snow Report Application
We recently launched two new applications available for the Apple iPhone. They are both ski and snow reports, one is free and can track two mountain resorts while the other can track up to 18 resorts at a cost of only $0.99
So far the reviews have been great, and the paid app actually is more popular than the free app. We'll have to see how it goes over the summer.
You can find the app on iTunes here: http://ax.itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/browserRedirect?url=itms%253A%252F%252Fax.itunes.apple.com%252FWebObjects%252FMZStore.

Where is everyone?!
I can't seem to find anyone in advertising or marketing today. I guess they are all still in line trying to buy a new iPhone...
I wonder if today should be a holiday for ad shops.

Sharing My Calendar with TimeBridge
My new favorite web app is TimeBridge, a great utility that allows me to share my Microsoft Exchange calendar with anyone I choose.
In the past it's been difficult to set up meetings with my clients since they can't view my calendar. So I send them a few available times and they see if it works with their schedules. Often times there isn't a time that works so we have to repeat the process until something sticks.
Now I just send them a link to my online TimeBridge calendar and they can view my schedule and set meeting times for me. A small Outlook extension keeps both calendars in sync and up to date. Check it out at: http://timebridge.com

Hulu - Now Open for Me!
I got my Hulu invite this weekend via InviteShare and I'm loving it. It's feeds on my need for just one screen. You can't beat all of the programming found there. Check it out: http://www.hulu.com
I can wait to catch up on The Family Guy, Arrested Development, The Simpsons and others!

Microsoft Surface
After having my iPhone for a couple of months now, I really think that multi-touch computing will be hot. (I still expect Apple to release one at this years MacWorld)
The Microsoft Surface is pretty sick - we'll be working on a project using those starting very soon. Check it out: http://www.microsoft.com/surface/
