Vivox Brings Voice to Virtual Worlds

Vivox Brings Voice to Virtual Worlds

A cool Boston startup called Vivox is helping bring voice into virtual worlds like Second Life. Just a few weeks back Second Life went live with this service, and, after working out a few kinks, seem to be having lots of success with it.

I’ll follow with a video blog post chatting with Rob Seaver and Monty Sharman from Vivox…

VCMike Goes Video

Inspired by Kara Swisher, I’ve decided to start videoblogging.

After all, I figure, the people I meet tend to be alot more interesting than anything I might actually write.

All Good Things Must Come to an End

After a glorious week on a small island in a big lake in Maine, we are back home, back in the saddle for the new school year, and for the post-labor day crush on the work front.

And, back to the blog.

Hopefully, you can expect more regular postings from here on in.

Mahalo Maui Surf Clinics!

A big Mahalo (thank you) to Kristin, Billy, Jason and Phil from the Nancy Emerson Surf School (aka Maui Surf Clinics). Thanks to their patience, humor, instruction and equipment 5 of the Hirshlands are now surfers!

Blogging has been, and will continue to be slow as I have headed to Maui with the family for some vaca.

If you want a good laugh, check out this video of me trying to surf earlier today — and very nearly ending up on the rocks!
