’cause I’m in the movie-makin’ business now! That’s right, I’ve finally completed my arduous task of compiling the many, many photos we shot at Yellowstone back in ‘06 into a small slideshow. This project began last year, but I walked away from it midway through. After a butt-load of editing I now have a nice li’l movie to share with you. Exporting it to the web proved damned difficult, but i think i finally got it. It’s a bit smaller than I would like, but that’s how it’s gotta be. Currently, it’s for Quicktime only, so if you’re running XP, make sure you have the latest free player. If you still can’t see it, let me know.

Look what I stumbled across: CloneMe will solve all your worries during this holiday time of gift giving. Geeez!

A friend emailed me about this one: Zamar.com is a new company specializing in file conversion….online. no need for software anymore; just email your files and get the conversions sent back to you. there’s no mention of any limitation on file size, so i guess it’s whatever your email service can handle. the biggest thing i see here is their ability to convert songs purchased through the iTunes store (which can only be played with the iTunes app or an iPod.) all in all, i think it’s a pretty cool service. just be careful what you decide to send them; they will see it.
