Casey discusses the new LifeSize Passport product.
See the video.
A co-worker sent me a link to The Videophone as Imagined in 1910 post on Gizmodo last week.
We really have come along way and one thing is for certain. The devices of tomorrow will continue to amaze us with even higher levels of immersion and realism. Ubiquitous Video will be realized.
I especially liked the 1927 [...]
The long days of summer are coming to an end today in Austin, TX (LifeSize HQ)**. Three words come to mind. HOT, DRY, & BUSY.
I’ve talked about Twitter and the Kindle. Today is about making decisions based on data and not emotions.
“Seek not to know the answer, but to understand the question.” I can’t find who said this, but it’s very true.

Yesterday I wrote about twitter, today about the Kindle. Rarely do I start using devices that fundamentally change the way I operate. Ones that come to mind are Tivo, DV cameras, iPod, HD video conferencing, iPhone, and now the Kindle.
I started this blog with a tongue in cheek posting about the perils of travel. Tonight I find myself at 35,000’ aboard an on time flight to Boston. Let’s see, did a little work on my computer, read some on the Kindle, watched an episode of “What about Ted” on the iPhone, and talked with the guy next to me about building airplanes. He’s about to test fly his Lancair 360 that he’s been building for 10 years.
This week we posted our latest software release on the Lifesize website, version 4.1, build. Like most software releases it adds some features, fixes some bugs, improves stability and in general makes things work better. That’s the intent.And with maintenance releases it’s almost always true. Major releases include many more new features and can sometimes introduce new behavior that wasn’t … let’s say … “intended”. Version 4.1 is a maintenance release.
Yesterday, somebody sent me a link to the Top 10 real life Star Trek inventions and there it was … Telepresence. That’s right, you remember, Captain Kirk on the Enterprise deck watching the Klingon vessel de-cloak itself on the massive screen and soon a point to point video call being made between the 2 ships. Looking back, this was the first time I ever saw a video conference. Probably the same for you too.
Last week we announced and began shipping a new product, Express 200. LifeSize is a industry leading product company and that’s what we do, design and build new products and continually improve our existing systems. It is a very complex process that involves all aspects of our company.
Go ahead, stop reading, jot down your absolute favorite products. Five of them.
You know what they are. They are so good, you can’t do without them. They bring joy to your life. They bring a smile to your face when you think about them. You may already have them, or you may aspire to have them someday. Everybody knows a great product when they use one. And everybody knows when a product is not so great.
