I'm wondering what my new year's work-related digital resolutions should be? (Lots of caveats eh?). Some bloggers have been publishing their 2008 predictions and reviews of the year. Well I'll keep it a bit more personal.
I'm planning on relaunching a couple of blogs. Just a couple for starters. Poor blogging's taken a back seat in all this social networking and micro-publishing (Twitter / Jaiku) malarky.
I'm also hoping to do a lot more audio visual stuff. Not just YouTube and Seesmic talk-into-the-camera stuff. There are some cool things gathering momentum around online social pics, video and podcasting, like Ffffound and Kyte. Worth having a play huh! Like I always say, I get it wrong first so my clients don't have to. Fail fast and all that.
And lastly I'm going to try to use just a bit less hardware. Argh the grief. I currently carry five bricks averywhere I go and can only, at a push, survive without a couple. Think I may need to do some streamlining.
That's it for now. Sure I'll come up with some more after the Christmas break.
Can the iPhone do everything you need? It's a good point - there is no ONE device that can do everything right now. Maybe we'll have to wait for the Ultra-portable Mac in January...

Mike do you want one device to do everything? I'm not saying convergence isn't a good thing (its nice to have a cheap camera on my phone) - i'm just saying that it'll be a bad idea to have a toothbrush that also cleans your arse.
When things do converge it usually changes the way we use the feature - for instance camera phones. we Still wouldnt take our wedding photos on them but we have more random pictures
