go.tagjag.com/nfs – twitter.com/chrispirillo – Playing Need for Speed on my iPhone is actually a great way to unwind. I gotta thank the folks at EA for sending this along to me to play with – I mean… review! I’ve been having a great time trying to beat my own score. Racing games are always fun, but this one takes first prize in my book. It has excellent graphics and animations, the audio is good, and it’s just plain fun. chris.pirillo.comThis video was originally shared on blip.tv by l0ckergn0me with a No license (All rights reserved) license.

- a video and audio series about a six-day children’s book road trip
In November 2008, the Just One More Book!! children’s book internet radio program set out on a six-day road trip to live, eat, socialize, paint and read with children’s book creators.
Producers Andrea Ross and Mark Blevis and their two daughters, Lucy (9) and Bayla (7), lived by a tight schedule of studio visits, lunches, dinners, round table discussions and gallery visits. The trip was video and audio recorded and has been produced as a series of documentary video and audio programs that was published on the Internet, for free, beginning Tuesday, March 31, 2009 (click here to see a promotional video clip).
The videos are snappy and entertaining and feature uniquely intimate footage.
The goal of the series is to give children’s books and the children’s book community their long-overdue pop-media treatment.
Episodes include
* Lane Smith discussing original artwork and his creative process
* Diane de Groat showing how she mixes digital and physical art
* Jarrett Krosoczka painting with Lucy and Bayla
* Jeff Mack explaining the story behind some of his books
* R. Michelson Galleries’ 19th Annual Children’s Illustration Exhibition
Notable facts
* round-trip by rental car: 1500kms
* long-distance travel time: 20hrs
* video recording: 13hrs
* audio recording: 25hrs
* photograghs: more than 2000
* editing time per episode: 16hrs (average)
* the project is completely self-funded (no advertisers, sponsors or grants)
Guests include Jeanne Birdsall, Nick Clark, Diane de Groat, Tony Diterlizzi, Corinne Demas, Jane Dyer, Scott Fischer, Mordicai Gerstein, Paul Jacobs, Norton Juster, Jarrett Krosoczka, Jeff Mack, Richard Michelson, Leslea Newman, Lane Smith, David Ezra Stein, Heidi Stemple, Mo Willems and Jane Yolen.
Quotes from Mark Blevis’ blog post about the series:
What I’ve noticed over time is that children’s books and their creators have been treated very traditionally in the media. In fact, I’ve even noticed this on the web where some of the most interesting interviews with authors and illustrators have been low on production value (e.g. ten-minute video interviews of a talking head). There is so much talk about the importance of children’s books and literacy and how fun it is to learn to read and to read aloud, but the way we promote this in the media suggests otherwise.
I’ve drawn on some of the most entertaining and engaging ways to produce programs that I’ve experienced to date, and have come up with a few ideas of my own. The result is a series of videos which give the children’s book industry the pop-culture treatment enjoyed by niches such as fast food, the environment, movie stars, sports, music and technology, to name a few. My hope is that this approach will make the videos and the subject interesting to everyone, from those that are passionate about children’s books and creativity, to those that aren’t particularly interested in books at all.
