connecting the thoughts
At the first of the year it was announced that my company would be holding a Rock Band competition with the winning group receiving a cash prize. Shortly after I was tasked with putting together a scoring system for the competition. The performance scoring was fairly simple to figure, but for the technical side I had to hit up Google and found that there wasn’t much out there as far as a balanced, solid Rock Band competition scoring system.
Free or Pro, all of our members can now share video on Flickr. But wait, there’s more. If you’re a Pro member your HD videos are more better.
HD is great and all, but I probably won’t have a camera capable of taking HD video for quite a while and there is still the annoying 90 second limit on videos. I understand what Flickr is trying to accomplish with this setting, but I would like to see at least 60 more seconds added.
The long awaited release of the Leopard compatible SuperDuper! is finally released. I must say it would’ve come in handy a while back and I’ve been waiting for this update since a little before Leopard was released.
When I first read about Fluid on DaringFireball, my first thought was that it was a nice idea, but that I wouldn’t get any use out of it.
After reading/thinking more about it I’m going to change my tune. This is a great idea, and I’m looking forward to testing it out.
The long awaited (by at least me) release of xScope was released today. After submitting some temporary Leopard menu icons for xScope 1.5, I was invited to join the xScope 2.0 beta so I’ve had a little bit of time to work with this release. The addition of the Guides tool has taken an already indispensable app to the next level. If you already own xScope it’s definitely worth the $10 price of upgrade.
I just finished up some minor dev work on a clothing website for my ex co-worker Travis Drake. Although I’m not sure if they’re my personal style, these are definitely some sweet lookin’ shirts and enjoyable if for nothing other than their artistic value.
If you are so inclined stop by his site, 3rd ID Clothing, and pick something up. Portions of all proceeds will be donated to CanCare, Cancer Support Network.
