Surprise! iTouch, iMarket, iConnect

The value of the iTouch as an art marketing tool needs to be further explored.



If you're a professional artist as I am, I cannot express enough the importance of both blogging and now, the iTouch. Since a travel art portfolio in any form is the demand of collectors, galleries, and mfgs, these two (2) tools used in tandem are fabulous marketing vehicles that will keep us ahead of the pack.

Wait! Why am I telling you if I want to stay ahead of the pack? Simple: I like to see my friends succeed. So, if you're my friend, get an iTouch -and start that blog!!!!

Meanwhile, trolling thru my stats late last night, I discovered that Natasha Wescoat has found my recent love posting about the iTouch. She also exploited the idea of using the iTouch as an art portfolio by highlighting in a podcast. I can't wait to get my photos uploaded -I may just make a few friends and business colleagues in Europe next week!

iTouch, iWant, iGot!

Andrew is the most fabulous husband ever!

Last night, he surprised me with a Jetson space-aged toy that will definitely appease my immediate need to research online at any given time. The iTouch, as was emphasized to me last night at the Apple store, was the music -even the tutorial online was all about the iTunes. That's nice -just give me the gadget so that I can show manufacturers my work at any given time and research them online as needed -any where, any time.


Baccharoo in the background.

Oh, and I'm listening to Handel's Water Music. While always a fav, the trumpets still cannot rouse me from my sluggishness due to taking this little toy under the sheets last night.

Okay, not quite, but this is only going to feed my inner Web-o-holic.

iTouch, iWant

iWant!
iWant! iWant! iWant!

Andrew insisted on visiting the Apple Store when we strolled out today for his birthday. Ohhhh, he shouldn't have done that.

I've been pretty darn good about keeping my expenses in check the past few years -picking up only what I need for the office and maintaining my frugality.

Not today.

While the iPhone tickled my fancy, it has two major flaws:

1) a phone (silly, I know) and
2) the carrier

I already have a phone and don't use half the amenities on it and I moved from Cingular for a reason. So, naturally, I immediately dismissed the idea of hopping on the wagon.

Today is different.

This iTouch is everything minus the phone. Wi-Fi enabled, this allows me to check out out a company on the fly wherever I am; this capability is a must when I'm out and about town.

iWant this. iWant it baaaaad.

Update: I was listening to 'Fred' on XMRadio today and heard the song by OMD, "If you leave" and thought the chorus lyrics would be a perfect fit for an iTouch jingle.

I touch you once, I touch you twice
I won't let go at any price
I need you now like I need you then...

Wonder if I can get royalties for the mere suggestion?

UPDATE: iGot! Read how!
