There are many people I respect in the tech community, but Leo Laporte has always been at the top of the list, for many reasons. The video below is one of those reasons. Leo, if you're reading this, you are seriously one of the coolest geeks ever.

And yes, this was actually streamed LIVE at the Diggnation event in Austin, TX. I try not to overuse this word, but this was most definitely epic. Surf on, @leolaporte!

Since the Your Kodak Zi8 Questions Answered video was such a success, I'm going to do it again, this time with the Flip MinoHD. As you may know, I recently received a review unit and have been using it for about a week now. I've learned a lot about the MinoHD and would like to help those wondering how it performs, whether it's worth a purchase, etc.

If you have a question, simply post it in the comments section and I'll try to answer it in a future video. Be sure to include your YouTube name or however you want to be referred to if your question is selected. Like last time I will pick about 10 of the best questions and answer them within a week. So what are you waiting for? Flood me with the best questions you can think of!

Finally, some iPad related news! Don't get too excited though. This could be bad news. Apparently the iPad is having production problems and could possibly miss its launch window by about a month. This would conveniently line up both Wi-Fi and Wi-Fi/3G models to launch around the same time. I don't know about you, but I want the iPad as soon as possible. I'm crossing my fingers for a launch later this month.

If you follow me on Twitter, then you may be aware that the Social Blog's contact forms were not working properly for the past few days. Users would submit the form, but the information never actually made its way into my inbox for whatever reason. I apologize to anyone who experienced this problem and never heard back from me.

Good news though! The contact forms are back up and running again, except this time they're slightly better. The forms are now more organized, users will receive a confirmation email upon submission and overall everything is easier to use. In case you are wondering, I'm using Wufoo.com to handle all contact forms, which I highly recommend checking out. It's a very impressive service!
