I never heard of Clearspring before reading, "I would create a flash widget (i.e. using Wijering's or Flow Player's open source flash players) and encapsulate it with Yahoo's, Microsofts, Apple's or Adobe's (AIR) widget platforms. You can do a lot of this with Clearspring.com's APIs." from a posting to Meetup.com [newtech-1] list. The UI is a little busy for my taste, however an occasional Dilbert read boosts my spirits.

Odin's one good eye
The cellphone camera is Odin’s one good eye. The cellphone is a magical device connected to the Internet, a technology that is often portrayed as a cloud. Odin’s wife spins the cloud.
The 7th century Tängelgarda stone shows Odin leading a troop of warriors all bearing rings. Valknut symbols are drawn beneath his horse, which is depicted with four legs.

Outbound Asterisk calls
For sometime I've been noodling with Asterisk and I now have three boxes chugging away in the iCloud. But I never enabled outbound calling. I shall use this post to chart my progress:
2008 April 14 - The great customer service from connect.voicepulse.com reminds me that I need to install a SIP softphone on my Debian Linux box.
- X-Lite from CounterPath and VoIPer (I can't find their URL) are two SIP softphone candidates.
- After I add the softphone, I will add an extension in my Asterisk dialplan to the SIP softphone that inturn will make the outbound call.
[to-be-continued]

Hosting Notions 2nd Qtr 2008
Comparing email & voip/Asterisk & web hosting providers
- I like Lylix.net [voip/Asterisk]
- Check out an outfit in LIC called SpecialAI [voip/Asterisk + web]
- I currently host some with Carpathia that provides scalable video streaming
- I'm ready to look beyond dreamhost
- The only host i've really been happy with is RimuHosting
- I'm very fond of Laughing Squid
- http://reviews.cnet.com/web-hosting/
- rackspace "fanatical support" is pretty comprehensive.
- I've had great luck with www.mailstreet.com for outsourced exchange/outlook, etc.
- Exchange means intermedia.net i am hosting with them more than a year and zero downtime and good support.
