Video Compression Comes To Carlsbadistan

by The Editors on March 17, 2009

Z0E33Cee393Cf432C8825757C005A05A1.JpgThe name Sorenson Media has been synonymous with video compression since the company was founded in 1995. But now, that company has moved to Carlsbadistan, according to a story in the North County Times.

Sorenson Media, based in Salt Lake City, opened its new office in Carlsbad to be the hub of its business, said Peter Csathy (pronounced “Chatty”), the company’s chief executive, on Tuesday. The original Utah office will remain, he said, but most of the hiring will take place in the Carlsbad office on Jefferson Street.

Welcome to Carlsbadistan, Sorenson. We can always use a little video compression help around here.

First, we are thrilled to now be officially citizens of Carlsbadistan. Second, I may need to demand a retraction from the North County Times, because my last name is pronounced “Chotty” (with an “o”, rather than an “a”). But, I believe it is the Carlsbadistani way to let those kind of things go …

Peter is actually a very chatty guy, so maybe they weren’t so far off the mark… 😉

As a former Carlsbadistan resident, allow me to welcome you to, well, you know where you are. Sounds like Peter’s new call sign/street name is now “Chatty.”

By the way, “Dude” is pronounced as though there were a micro-t in front of the word, three o-s in the middle, and the final a as though it were lobbying for its own syllable.

Dude (as in “Old Dude”)
