Artinfilms.com would like to feature Hawaii Artists who have had any art in a feature film or television series, like Hawaii Five-O perhaps?

Aloha All,

I just launched a new website and social network called "Art In Films".

http://www.artinfilms.com



I created it to showcase the art you see in films that enhance the scene or are just in the background.



I'd love to get some Hawaii artists to join my network and showcase any work they may have in films. Big screen or Small. Blockbuster movies, independent, foreign films or locally produced shows like Hawaii Five-O. A… Continue

The Foursquare Japan Lesson: Lightweight Localization

Even if you can't afford to localize right away, don't get in the way of your Japanese and Chinese users







I'm currently in Tokyo on business. As I travel around the city I've been spot checking Foursquare's coverage. To my surprise, coverage is excellent. Most popular eateries and nightspots have already been added. Many already have mayors. Foursquare specials…

TSA's "enhanced screening" - why it hurts Hawaii most

Hawaii is the most isolated population center on Earth. We're 2,400 miles from California, nearly 3,900 miles from Japan and 5,000 miles from China. We are the widest state in the US and the only one to grow coffee.


We are also one of only two states that you must fly to (I can't swim that far.. sorry guys).

FaceBook Unfriends Google.. via email
