Having an IM conversation with someone in Iran, turns out they "hate" Bush...so random. But I had to reply, "that's why I voted for Obama" 7 hrs ago
I was just about to update the flickr video post on how easy it was to embed the video but instead I have to say I’m really enjoying the new release of Wordpress.
I haven’t used it enough to write a full post, which I won’t, but everything I’ve tried to do is either much easier than before or greatly improved. Like embeding that flash video, it was as simple as: clicking html, pasting, clicking visual again in the editor, finishing the…
Ever since we started using flickr, in 2005, I had been anticipating this day to come…3 years later flickr added video support. It’s clearly not a youtube competitor and I’m glad its not, they can keep their social/viral/hilarious video.
Even though YouTube has more to offer, only because it’s pioneering and trying to keep ahead in that space, flickr will host most of our video.
flickr is our online “scrap book”/photo-album and since our events, the iPhoto term, include video its only…
iWork 08
Yesterday I posted about Numbers and I shyed away from posting about the other two apps in iWork ‘08; Pages and Keynote because the only thing out of those two apps that’s worth mentioning is “action builds” for Keynote.
Action builds is a very cool feature and to have it in a presentation software makes me say “finally”. Keynote has had animations in previous versions but not like this. Instead of building the motion in another application like Flash or…
I just wanted to post how great our vacation trip was last week. The camping trip un-tethered me from the internet enough to give Google Reader some time off too. I have plenty of flickr photos of the trip and some of me wakeboarding, yes I know, I can’t wakeboard. Well, I can’t wakeboard well enough so I could jump higher and make it look cool in pictures. Other than those few pics I had a great time riding, I…
I’m purging my online identity to just a few locations that I actually use since it was getting out of control. The major account escape that led to the purge was myspace, as you might have noticed if I’m a friend of yours. The others include:
Following these directions to boot OS X from a USB drive I was able to modify the AppleTV filesystem to enable SSH. Running SSH allows for just about anything:
I can’t wait…
With Christmas coming with one night’s sleep I’d like to thank all of you. Not the “you” that Time magazine refers to but the people that actually read my site or know me personally that don’t bother to come here because I geek out too much. Thank you.
We’ve had a great year and these last few days have followed suit. We’re just relaxing and enjoying it. I’ve posted nothing just keeping up with my feeds and e-mail on the downtime…
I played around for a few minutes with flickr’s geotagging and I’m impressed. The yahoo1 maps are identical to Google maps so it’s really easy to use. I can’t wait to chronical a big trip.
I created a “Grassy Backyard ” flickr set for the details.
The short story,
I had planned out this project for a while thinking it would take three weeks. One week of demolish, One week of finishing up and one for the install. Turns out it only took one and a half days.
Saturday I started early demolishing and was finished before 10am. 10am to 2pm we had all the finishing touches done in order to install the sprinkler. 2pm to about 5 I…
