- Share life—and make it count.
i think this is pretty cool.
Your alarm goes off at six a.m. It’s a good day for a run, so you tie your laces and step out the door. The first steps work out the morning stiffness but you start to hit your stride, and soon you’ve reached your route’s first hill. Your legs are beginning an early burn. Then through your earphones comes a welcome sound. It’s your dad, your sister, your best friend––they’re cheering you on. Because this morning, the moment your shoes hit the pavement, they saw you start your run on Path. They’re supporting you each step, from across the city, across the country, across the globe. You sprint the hill. With their help, you make it count.
This is the story of your morning run. It’s an important part of your day; it’s how you stay fit and healthy and happy. Now with Path 2.1, you can record and share it on Path.
From the routine to the extraordinary, there are countless special moments in your day to share with the people you love. We want to help you journal all of them in your Path. To do this, we’ve built the first version of the Path API to enable you to include stories from your other favorite mobile apps. After all, the story of your life is reflected in the apps you use every day.
We are delighted to announce Nike as the first Path API partner. Starting today, you can connect Nike+ GPS to Path to share your runs, in real time, with your family and close friends.The completion of your workout automatically creates a beautiful Running Story in your Path––a map of your route dotted with pictures of those who cheered you on along the way. You can see your best pace, mile markers, your time and distance. Whether you run marathons or run for the morning paper, you can keep a journal of it on Path, track your habits and set goals with the support of the people you love.
Running is just the start. Nike is pioneering an entirely new way to integrate activity and sport in your everyday life. In the next few weeks, you will be able to connect the revolutionary NIKE+ FuelBand to your Path to journal your daily activity. We can’t wait to share it with you; stay tuned.
For more information about the Path and Nike+ GPS integration you can visit: http://path.com/nike
We’ve also taken time with 2.1 to improve two popular Path stories: Music and Photos. To Music, we’ve added what we call Music Match, a single button you can tap to record and recognize the music playing around you, so even an unfamiliar song in a coffee shop or a newly released track playing at a friend’s house can be remembered and shared easily with the ones you love on Path. For Photos we’ve worked hard to refine each of our free lenses, and we’ve also added a new comic book-inspired lens called Pow. Camera previews are now high-definition, and a new advanced feature that separates focus and exposure points will help you take beautiful photos, even in the trickiest lighting situations.
It’s our hope that you can use Running, Photo and Music Stories to better share life with the people you love. We hope you enjoy Path 2.1.If you’re interested in our API, please let us know here.
- my favorite bedtime apps for iphone
my 2-year-old daughter loves these apps and i do too, these are some of the best of the best, imho:

nighty night! - amazing illustration, a little more difficult for younger kids.
little bella’s i close my eyes - impressive animation with fun music. ends with little bella falling asleep in her bed which makes it easier to tell my little stella that it’s time for bed. lite version available.
peekaboo barn - fun with animals in the barn, the animals go to bed at the end. lite version available.
what are some of your favorites?
Here’s to the crazy ones,
the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers,
the round pegs in the square holes.
The ones who see things differently,
they’re not fond of rules.
You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them,
but the only thing you can’t do is ignore them
because they change things, they push the human race forward,
and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius,
because the ones who are crazy enough
to think that they can change the world,
are the ones who do.
- cr-48 : chrome notebook
i wrote the following last night, a few hours after i opened my chrome notebook:
if you’re like me, you wanted a google cr-48 for two reasons:
- you simply cannot have enough hardware in your possession, and
- you want to see if you could really get by on the chrome os.
not sure how i was able to score a cr-48 but i got one and here are some of my initial thoughts after a few hours of playing with one:
pros
- it’s a free computer. google scored major points in my book for this early birthday gift even though i’m sure that they are watching everything i do on it.
- i really like having a dedicated “refresh” button on my keyboard.
- i like the texture of whatever it is that this notebook is coated in.
cons
- i can’t view more than one tab at a time. i know that’s the nature of tabs but i’d really like to be able to see two tabs at once.
really, there is a long list of things i can’t do with my chrome notebook but i’m trying to focus on what i can do. i can see this notebook being excellent for travel or vacations or for taking to campus to take notes and study with.
today, i brought this thing to work and i have all sorts of thoughts about how this notebook and the chrome os could be used.
since
nothingvery little data is stored locally, i don’t have any problem letting other people use the cr-48 while i’m not using it. it’s very easy to both add and delete a new user account in chrome os and i have let several people hop on and give this thing a test drive. it’s so easy and fast to set up an user account and get browsing that i can just imagine schools, libraries, and businesses having a stack of chrome notebooks that anyone can use whenever they need to.more later…
hallelujah :: ryan bingham
i didn’t put this on my music blog because i’m not sure that my readers would really take to this song but i’m really digging it. i’m going to see mr. bingham on feb. 23 in slc.
other songs to checkout: sunrise, tell my mother i miss her so, southside of heaven.
