Happy Monday, once again! It sure rolls around quickly, doesn’t it!
As usual, I’ve got something to rock your mind to! Coffee? On a Monday morning? Psht! You don’t need it. Dance Trippin’ (subscribe) in the background while you work is a blend for productivity! I’m already wired after listening to the first seven minutes of this hour-long mix!
Smack the play button and knuckle down! You’re about to go on a wild ride through the Ibiza music scene!
Congratulations Dance Trippin’ on 100 episodes!!
Europeans sure know how to get their groove on! This mix was recorded in Ibiza, Spain, at the world’s biggest club (yes, they hold the Guinness World Record) — Privilege Ibiza. It has a ceiling 25 meters high and there’s even a swimming pool! If you’re traveling to/near Spain, you should definitely check this place out! Privilege recommends you buy tickets in advance because most nights they will be sold out at the door!
Are you crushing your work load yet? Yes? No? Either way, crank on to another episode of Dance Trippin’ and before you know it you’ll be in to Tuesday.
The fourth annual El Paseo Fashion Week begins today. That means the hottest new styles will be strutting down the runway in Palm Springs. Mmm, Palm Springs, where the hot meets the hotter.
The event will be held in a great big white tent from March 23-29, 2009.
In this video BeHereTV (subscribe) brings you the 2008 El Paseo Fashion Week via their broadband travel website. Be there before you get there. Snazzy!

Sure, you could travel all the way out to Austin, Texas, and watch some panels about new media. Or you could just watch Gary’s videos and learn just as much.
I know, I know. It’s fun to see all your friends at a tech event, but if you can’t be there, then this is the next best thing!
That’s right everybody! It only takes your two cents to start a video blog. Create great content, be passionate, and work with what you have. You’re awesome! Show people!

In this episode (s03e07) of Fork You, Scott’s favorite foods are cooked up in front of a live audience. This includes delicious breaded chicken cutlets, yummy scallop potatoes, drool inducing brownies with no nuts, and… broccoli. Talk about a meal fit for a king; Scott certainly is one!
This is another video you might want to have a napkin handy for.
The hosts of Fork You are Scott and Marisa. Fork You falls under the Blankbaby Media Empire. Did you subscribe yet?
Everyone and their mom has a Twitter account. It started with geeks and has eventually made it to traditional mainstream media sources and now celebrities.
Many other microblogging services have tried to compete with Twitter, but most of them fail due to the fact that most people have invested so much of their lives/business in to Twitter. Plenty of businesses would seize to exist without Twitter.
Alrighty, if you can’t be the next Twitter, then change it up a little. Jason looks at five different types of microblogging in episode 20 of The Web Mix (subscribe).
Jason has created a super-awesome customized player, and it looks very sexy on The Web Mix website.
Check out the sites Jason mentioned in this episode: HelloTxt, Blippr, Bloombla, 12seconds, and Chatterous. Leave a comment if you’ve tried any of these out, and describe what you like/disliked about them.
The Web Mix was previously known as The JetSet Web. I just thought you might like to know that.
During the episode a Digg article on the iPhone OS v3.0 was mentioned and it got the ~500 person crowd very excited! Especially when Digg founder, Kevin Rose dished out the news that he had it on good authority that copy and paste functionality would be in this release.
Apple, Inc is releasing a preview of the software today at 10 A.M. PST / 1 P.M. EST. As far as I’ve read I believe this means we’ll be updating our iPhones to version 3.0 this evening, but I haven’t seen that in writing. I can’t imagine there would be all this hype for a preview of the software.
Check out Kevin Rose detailing what he was told is going to be in iPhone OS v3.0:
How excited are you to see copy-and-paste on the iPhone? Is there a different feature you’d prefer over it? I’d definitely love to see a video option that didn’t require jailbreaking the device.
OceanLab just released their single “On A Good Day” and their fans created all created videos for the official music video. This is the result, and it’s frickin’ awesome!

About the band
Vocal trance is the genre OceanLab fits under. The band consists of vocalist Justine Suissa and the three members of Above & Beyond; Jonathan Grant, Tony McGuinness, and Paavo Siljamäki.

The sky isn’t the limit for OceanLab, they have so many influences and great people working with then, that they’re on a mission to rock the world! As you’ve seen, their current fans are awesome! Are you going to join their fan base?
If you have a suggestion for Music Video Monday, then giddy on up and send a message to me with a link to the video.
Yesterday at SxSW Interactive I saw 3D versions of Guitar Hero and Burnout: Paradise City. It was some pretty impressive technology!
Imagine that on an iPhone — the aforementioned games were played on Xboxes. Pocket Gamer (subscribe) sure likes to imagine that! They launched in 2006 and are dedicated to the wonderful world of games playable on pocket-sized devices.
In this episode of Pocket Gamer’s iPhone Gaming Podcast there’s talk of Metal Gear Solid and reviews of Brothers In Arms: Hour of Victory, Toy Bot Diaries: Entry 2, and Guitar Rock Tour. Yeahhhh, the equivalent of Guitar Hero on the iPhone!! I wonder when it will be in 3D.
What’s the smallest device you’ve played a game on? iPod Nano? Tamagotchi? Leave your comments below.
Always remember: If you have an exciting video you feel needs to be featured on the Viddler blog, please send me a message right now.
Rachel and I arrived in Austin mid-afternoon and proceeded to head down to where the action is: 4th Street.
There’s plethora of events to go to every evening during SXSW, so we started at option one and then found awesome people like Sarah Cooley, Rob Blatt, and Zac Luye at option three. It’s like that at these events though: You never know where you’ll end up.
Here’s our videos with more info from day one:
