The numbers just rolled in, and it looks like Twilight has grabbed a whopping $70.5 million in its opening weekend, slightly above earlier estimates of $45-65 million. For a film catered more toward young female audiences, these numbers are pretty damn impressive -- especially since these sorts of openings are usually reserved for big-budgeted action/superhero blockbusters featuring big names and lots of explosions. Twilight, however, starred the relatively unknown indie hopper Kristen Stewart and equally-as-unknown ...

I’m sitting on a plane flying from Vegas back to Seattle, WA. I have been in Vegas for 3 days for a work-related conference and have spent my nights into early mornings in my hotel room, sifting through emails, answering phone calls, and getting the word out. You know how sometimes you sit on a plane and end up in a nonstop conversation with the person next to you? And since their proximity is so ...

The Dark Knight is nearing the $1 billion dollar mark, with a grand total of $997,535,317 in box office receipts (as of Monday morning). The film has made $528,535,317 domestically (just $72,252,871 below Titanic’ record) and $469,000,000 overseas. Warner Bros is planning a big rerelease of the film in January, and I’m wondering just how much the film might be able to claim during this reprieve.

When Paramount/Dreamworks unleashed back-to-back-to-back $200M-grossing titles starting with Iron Man in May, they seemed like an “iron-clad” lock to win the big studio market share battle for 2008. Then along came Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight, which has rocked the nation to the tune of almost $530M domestic. TDK has helped Warner Bros secure its first market share title since 2005, and despite the rampaging success of Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa, Paramount cannot catch them. ...

Hace un par de días, el eco de la blogosfera repetía el nombre de Mobuzz. Resulta que los pobrecitos llevan dos años en funcionamiento, pero aún les falta poco para llegar a break-even y todavía necesitan un poco más de financiación para terminar de encontrar su modelo. Así que decidieron sincerarse y grabar un video muy guay y buenrollista pidiendo a los internautas que donen unos pocos euros, con el loable fin de reunir 120.000€ ...

The secret to Remember the Milk (RTM)’s extreme effectiveness as a task manager is its ability to be wherever you are on the web. Gmail. Check. Firefox. Check. iPhone. Check. All three places I absolutely need a task manager on. Most recently, RTM released their native iPhone app and they just nailed it! Lifehacker does a comparison of five online task managers, but my $0.02 based on my experience using RTM is that it is ...
