“He had his first exit when he was nine.”
Univision correspondent Blanca Vilchez’s story
“You’re not running as a journalist, you’re running as a human being,”
By INGRID ROJAS
Channel: Remembering 9/11“You’re not running as a journalist, you’re running as a human being,” says Univision’s veteran correspondent Blanca Rosa Vilchez of 9/11, when she had to run for cover from the Twin Towers’ collapse. Blanca was in the area covering that day’s primary elections when the World Trade Center was attacked.
In this interview she talks about her experience as a journalist and as a human being.

I’m here in person, so won’t be watching much video. But I will for sure be checking out Paul’s keynote this afternoon. I really agreed with his description of new IT, though 90% of VMware makes doesn’t quite match that vision yet.
I’m patient. :-)
If you’re not at VMworld today, and following along at home, there are a few topics you’ll want to check out in the area of consumerization:
- 11:00 AM Pacific SocialCast CEO will be interviewed (Socialcast is a Twitter-like tool for use behind-the-firewall in large enterprises)
- 12:45 PM…
Thank you for recording this.
Last thursday when i went to see Sade and John Legend. You already know it was fire in the Hp Pavillion that night. I recorded a bunch of little clips, but Is It A Crime is my favorite song so here you go.
Ha! The Microsoft video is funnier, but what they’re saying actually isn’t true (see below).
Without explicitly saying the word Hotmail, Google recently launched an Email Intervention campaign. Designed to help us get our friends off of old providers, and onto Gmail so we can gchat, call, and video chat with them, the video is aimed at hotmail users, and the people who love them.
Days later (coincidence?), Microsoft releases Gmail Man, a friendly, creepy mailman who asks embarrassing, intrusive questions while he delivers your email.
Never mind that Google Apps for Business (the closest analog to Office 365) doesn’t have ads in Gmail, and that Microsoft’s Hotmail is full of even blinkier, more garish ads (a better comparison for ad-laden consumer Gmail in the video).
Merlin Mann gets the lowdown on the latest audio software for the Mac from Rogue Amoeba.
Actually, the lowdown I got was on how Paul and RA have cornered the market by caring intensely about being great at one thing: hacking the shit out of your Mac’s audio. Which he and his team (including Christa and Dan [w00t]) do extremely well.

Why Google Needs Buzz
I was impressed by this video. Kevin Rose made one point nobody else is making, and even he undersold:
The intelligence about links driven from social and realtime data, has search/discovery value, and Google primarily needs that, if only for its core search service.
