Max Murphy is one of three teens in new media that we’re really impressed with. Chris Farley and Daniel Brusilovsky are the other two. Most teens embrace social media, but the overwhelming majority prefer closed systems like Facebook and MySpace. We’re impressed with Max, Chris and Daniel because they are working to master an open system where they own their own stuff.
Max produces a weekly show called Mac News Weekly. He does pretty much everything himself, although his dad runs the camera.
Who knows if Chris, Max and Daniel will continue what they’ve started as teens in exactly the same way. It really doesn’t matter because they’re learning to be their own media and to get their messages out to the world. That is cooler than a profile on Facebook could ever be.

We New Yorkers have been extremely lucky during this last week.
We had Cali here, and the Pope.
What more can we look forward to?

Ah Cali,
Sweetie & I are so so bummed we missed your New York trip. BedVlogs was created as a result of watching Geekbrief in Bed every Sunday morning. We would have loved to do a BedVlog with you while in New York but alas we are both performing at 2 library and 1 Barnes & Noble gigs in Memphis, TN. When we are not doing Bed Vlogs, i am a touring National Slam poet that does school slam poetry workshops and Barnes & Noble ZorkSlams. Hopefully next time you come to New York [or we tour you area] we can get you in a Bed Vlog.

Please leave New York and get back to podcasts that have content — rather than advertising for other podcasts. “Some guy has a new podcast which, by his own description, isn’t really about tech, or about any particular thing” doesn’t strike me as “shiny happy tech news”.
