Standard Definition on the left, High Definition on the rightI love gadgets, so you can imagine I was impressed the first time I saw an HDTV displaying a high resolution signal. The most significant step in the evolution of broadcast media since color, high-def brings phenomenal detail directly into your living room. While all types of programs benefit from the technology, the superb image resolution is particularly well suited to programming that is rich in action footage, such as movies and sports.

This was a magazine of satirical journalism that also featured serious investigative journalism.
Spy's popular features included "Separated At Birth?" (side-by-side photographs of two different celebrities, similar to Private Eye's "Lookalikes") and "Celebrity Math," which presented thumbnail headshots atop simple mathematical models representing the components of celebrities (e.g., Fabio - Catherine Deneuve = Billy Ray Cyrus).

Juxtaviews is a site that focuses on interviewing the people that are making the web.

Juxtaviews features one weekly interview with the company/person(s) that are helping make the web a more interesting place. Our interviews attempt to offer insight not only into the product/concept being discussed, but also the people behind the ideas. Our interviews are informal, and the goal is to produce an informative discussion.

Every friday we do a “link roundup” where we post our favorite websites, sites we’re following, or new websites we’ve come across.

The Juxtaviews site was conceptualized by Kevin Fricovsky. Kevin and Rajiv worked in the same building and would frequently talk to each other about the random going-ons in the web industry. Kevin asked Rajiv if he’d be interested in working on a discussion-like blog where they could discuss the questions that they were asking each other about new products and ideas floating around the web. And so began Juxtaviews. Shortly after Shaun Ellis joined the team to bring his eclectic background in art, music, programming, and his very own funkad-ellis specialties to the team. Following right behind Shaun was Mr. Dave Caplan - programmer, Canadian, and extreme bargain hunter. We’re all very different people, with very different backgrounds, but all working in the same industry - hence Juxtaviews. I hope you enjoy.
