1. A rolling cache of recent frames would be great too, because you often don’t have time to think to take a picture before the cool thing you just saw had passed. I’d love the ability to say, “Wait, what was that again?” and replay a fleeting glimpse of something from 5 seconds ago. It would be a huge battery hog, though.Report

   1. If we could just DVR all of life…Report

      1. I asked you a question in the most recent Linky Friday that you didn’t answer.

         @will-truman I made a comment to you there as well.Report

      2. About that issue with the article about BMW? Yeah, I probably should have taken advantage of the opportunity to read the issue while we were there.Report

      3. @will-truman Did you correct my 6:40 post?Report

      4. Yes.Report

   2. Dude, that would be totally awesome.Report

      1. There’s a thing we all do, where we’re not paying attention to a conversation, but then we hear something jarring (e.g. our SO asking “Are you listening to me?”), and we replay the previous parts in our mind to catch up.

      2. Comedian Lewis Black has a bit where he’s in a restaurant and from the next table he overhears a young woman say, “If it weren’t for that horse, I never would have gone to college.” He spends about twenty minutes deconstructing it and trying to figure out what the fish she meant by that.Report

      3. Clearly, she earned tuition money by dealing heroin.Report

2. We ate at a Mexican Restaurant last night. While eating, a guy in a sombrero and a Guy Fawkes mask came out and started dancing to the Tejano music.

   You were in South Austin last night?Report

   1. I felt like I was in the first 75% of Mulholland Drive.Report

3. I rue the day Google Glass becomes common…selfies will take a whole new direction.

   Ugh. (except for the hot chicks–you go girls!)Report

4. Two notes:

   One, was the dancing any good?

   Two, I can see an awful lot of utility to having everything around you recorded… until it becomes assumed that you’ll have everything around you recorded.Report

   1. One group no doubt sees it differently: LEOs and associated folk.Report
