My Neighborhood(s)

I was kindly contacted by our neighborhood blogger who just started Potrero Hill, San Francisco, "a community blog for the neighbors of Potrero Hill." He commented on my video skills about this neighborhood's 2 seconds of fame. I'm really glad to learn Potrero Hill has a neighborhood blog. Such is the kind of blog use that is most inspiring to me. Hopefully, the Potrero community will meet together more and share important information that otherwise would go unheard.

I had an amazing neighborhood in Tokyo. Just enough traditional and quaint feel, but also very cool and fun to hang out in. I loved walking around discovering its character. I miss it dearly.

I guess my point is neighborhoods have meaning. Check out your neighborhood.

I saw that Hummer jump off the hill. A person working the set described the movie to me as an Indonesian RomCom where a man and his pregnant wife are on vacation in SF when she goes into labor. They drive the Hummer around SF trying to get to the hospital. Hijinks ensue.

He added that the movie would almost assuredly never come to the US.

Another film crew was shooting a car commercial on that exact spot a month ago for some woefully underpowered Japanese econobox. Apparently itcouldn't even make it up the hill. Again won't make it to the US.

Also, if you switch your webserver config to send mime-type "video/quicktime" for 3gp videos, QT player will handle them correctly.
