    Approximately 7:30 pm, depending on the duration of the afternoon NFL broadcast.

    Many people here are already familiar with GoPro cameras and their uses. But it may still be worth a look. The preview shows skydivers, bike messengers and the teenager who attached a GoPro to a weather balloon that reached the upper edge of the atmosphere.

    I was surprised to learn that he became a billionaire off of GoPro. I had thought the company was much smaller.

    I’m not sure how long he will remain a billionaire though. Contour is gone, but Sony has entered the market for action cameras and so has Garmin. GoPro is successful but they are also vulnerable, because of form factor and software issues.
