Winer vs Cadenhead (two great friends in a dispute over something they both love)
I’ve been reading Dave’s blog for a LONG time. Through Dave’s blog, I’ve read a fair amount of Rogers Cadenhead’s stuff, too. I know that they have a long history of friendship and collaboration.
Both Rogers and Dave are thinkers, leaders and builders.
The recent dispute is a bummer. Not because these two guys feel wronged on this particular issue, but more because they probably won’t be collaborating again soon.
Like Scoble, I don’t know who is right and who is wrong. And I don’t know who has legal grounds and who doesn’t. It’s not really my business. I do hope, though, that Dave and Rogers shake hands at some point and continue working together. Good luck to you both.
SketchUp (now a Google company)
I played with Google’s new property, SketchUp, tonight. After watching a couple of the videos, it’s easy to use. I hope they release a free version. [More on SketchUp over at Make.]
Anyway, I grabbed an image of the Doctor Who Sonic Screwdriver (the Eccleston version) from Henriks, imported it as a texture and then reshaped a rectangle to fit its outline. Then I used the follow tool to wrap that outline around a circle, made a few adjustments and put some color on it. I’m pretty happy with it! The SketchUp file is here. Now where did I put that 3D printer…..
