Behind the Scenes of “iPhone: The Musical”

I had a lot of crazy fun making my video “iPhone: The Musical” last week–and a lot of fun watching the reaction online.

Most people found it funny, out-there, or at least entertaining (agreed). Many accused me of not being the greatest singer in the world and being a ham (agreed). And a few people were appalled. (One blogger, evidently born without the satire gene, called it “an entertainment bit that belongs on a comedy show, not from the New York Times” and that it “devalues the Times as a news outlet.” Wow—the New York Times criticized for having a sense of humor? Isn’t it usually just the opposite?)

Anyway, with the flood of feedback came a torrent of questions, and there were some interesting tech challenges along the way. So here’s my “making of” story, as driven by reader questions.
