Here at dig­i­tal­ren­dezvous we love: Twit­ter, Stum­ble­Upon, deli­cious, Flickr, Tech­no­rati, DIGG, Word­Press, Reddit, Tumblr, Jaiku, Google. The reason I love this stuff is: it con­nects people in ways which wasn’t pre­vi­ously pos­si­ble. So to say it’s a lifestyle a dig­i­tal lifestyle. People like to inter­act with people, we like to inter­act with you.
That’s the reason why we cre­ated dig­i­tal­ren­dezvous, the name says it all! We are con­tin­u­ally improv­ing our fea­tures, code­base and design. We love your feed­back and we have some excit­ing things up our sleeves
dig­i­tal­ren­dezvous is a suc­cess because of our read­ers and we like to thank you for this. We will work hard to make dig­i­tal­ren­dezvous a social plat­form.
So let’s rendezvous…

In the West & South Hall, Moscone Center (San Fran­cisco, CA) at Jan­u­ary 15 - 18, 2008 you can hear Apple’s CEO, Steve Jobs, deliver the Mac­world Con­fer­ence & Expo keynote address at the kick off of the biggest Mac­in­tosh com­mu­nity event of the year.

The Inter­na­tional Con­sumer Elec­tron­ics Show 2008 just launched today in Las Vegas! It will take place Jan­u­ary 7-10. A lot of gad­gets & good­ies will be released during these days. One I would like to show you is this enter­tain­ment system called the Lady­bug from Vestal­ife.

There’s simply noth­ing quite like the Vestal­ife Lady­bug. Flip out the speaker “wings” on this sleek, high-​tech device and you have an iPod-based enter­tain­ment system fea­tur­ing a built-​in sub-​woofer for lots of bass, a dig­i­tal ampli­fier and one of the coolest soft-​touch fin­ishes you’ve ever expe­ri­enced. Sit it on a counter. Take it with you. The Vestal­ife Lady­bug is designed to be part of your life.

The Show­down between Blu-​ray Disc (BD) and HD-​DVD is prob­a­bly over. Warner Broth­ers announced that they would be moving their titles from HD-​DVD to the Blu-​ray format. Many have sug­gested that this marks the end of the next gen­er­a­tion DVD battle, though two major stu­dios con­tinue to have exclu­sive HD-​DVD dis­tri­b­u­tion deals in place.
Warner Brother’s switch, places the major­ity of movie releases on Blu-​Ray.
Even before this new mar­ket­share advan­tage, Blu-​ray titles out­sold HD-​DVD offer­ings as much as 2 to 1, and had even been chosen for exclu­sive dis­tri­b­u­tion by Block­buster.
This is also a seri­ous jaw­breaker for de VC-1 format (sorry, Bill), BD which includes both AVC and VC-1 favors AVC. AVC (MPEG-4 Part 10 or MPEG-4 Advanced Video Coding) is from a tech­ni­cal point of view a supe­rior format.
Apple has been a member of the Blu-​ray consortium’s Board of Direc­tors since March 2005, but has not pub­licly announced their Blu-​ray plans. Let’s hope Apple will offi­cially launch Blu-​ray sup­port at Mac­world San Fran­cisco 2008.
Update 05-01-2008: It is now clear that New Line (Owned by Warner Bros.) will also drop HD-​DVD in favor of Blu-​ray. The announce­ment comes on a day that can only be described as a night­mare for the HD-​DVD camp.Rumor 08-01-2008: Para­mount Pic­tures is poised to drop its sup­port of HD-​DVD in favor of Sony’s Blu-​ray format, land­ing a deci­sive blow to the Toshiba-​backed next-​generation DVD format and all but assur­ing Blu-ray’s role as the future stan­dard for all high-​definition dig­i­tal video discs.

My trusty Log­itech MX1000 died on me today, so I had to replace it. I fired up Safari and vis­ited the Log­itech web­site. After drop­ping my eye-​ball on the MX Air Recharge­able Cord­less Air Mouse, I chose the MX Rev­o­lu­tion, I don’t see myself Wii-​ing-​up those Pho­to­shop doc­u­ments.

So we’re now cruis­ing at dig­i­tal full-​speed 2.4GHz, flaw­lessly fight­ing those pixels with the Advanced Laser Engine. This mouse made me think of the Apple Pro Mouse com­mer­cial: “Born To Be Wild“, the only dif­fer­ence is the Apple Pro Mouse is (a still)born, this mouse is wild.

Tim Burton: Corpse Bride (2005), Char­lie and the Choco­late Fac­tory (2005) directed and pro­duced a new movie called: Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street a musi­cal thriller based on the hit Broad­way musi­cal which tells the infa­mous story of Ben­jamin Barker (Johnny Depp: Pirates of the Caribbean 1/2/3 and Once Upon a Time in Mexico), a.k.a Sweeney Todd, who sets up a barber shop down in London which is the basis for a sin­is­ter part­ner­ship with his fellow tenant, Mrs. Lovett. Alan Rick­man plays the twisted Judge Turpin, we all know Alan from movies like: Per­fume: The Story of a Mur­derer (2006), Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves (1991), Die Hard (1988)
