Vancouver-based Strutta has finally launched to the world after being a hot presenter recently in Vancouver. Strutta was on a lot of people’s lips at SXSW and I begged for an invite (yes, begged). Jordan Behan emailed me last week with a heads up that they were launching today.
Other folks got in first with their […]

Ottawa-based overlay.tv launched today with something that I think is pretty interesting and unique–letting users annotate and add to videos.
The idea is pretty simple (after you create an account) you find a video like on YouTube and put the URL into Overlay and then you, well, overlay stuff onto it.
Yeah I had a hard time […]
You know that I am a huge fan of Kris Krug’s work. I don’t think he’s taken a bad pic of me yet. As I was skimming my feeds I saw this little baby:
Yep, that’s a pic by Vangroovy’s own Kris Krug there on the NatGeo website. Some of us have to use the online […]
Happy New Year all! Going to be an exciting year I can tell. To start things off I’m going to get into the swing of doing a regular show on BlogTalkRadio here on Canadian tech-MapleLeaf2.0 Radio. So I want to hear from you! Lot’s of great tech in Canada so I’d like to chat with […]
