Weekly Comment (7)

this week I had Wednesday off and me and Nick went to the falls and taped for our project.
what frustrated me was that Nick jumped onto a rock in the water and made me flip out on him because I wouldn't be able to save him!
what made me happy was that we finally got a little bit of footage.
what I'd like to work on is more multi-tasking.
what made me happy was that this week went by pretty fast, and I started working on my project for college and did my quizzes.

are examples of Web 2.0.


According to http://www.digital-web.com/articles/web_2_for_designers/
Web 2.0 is "a vision of the Web in which information is broken up into "micro content" units that can be distributed over dozens of domains. The Web of documents has morphed into a Web of data."

blind painter.

this is really amazing that someone that was able to see, wasn't a painter and didn't think he was good at it, now that he's blind, it's what he loves to do and is a way for him to see.

i can't even paint, his work is so much better than mine could ever be.


i hope it takes him far, he deserves it.

Weekly Comment (6)

this week went by really fast, since we had monday off and NFHS has no BOCES tomorrow.
today me and John went and recorded the HAZMAT people that showed what was in a fire truck and taught about fire tanks, and hazardous substances and what they used to detect it.
it was pretty interesting.
one kid blew the fire horn and scared the crap out of me, you can see my camera shake when he pulled the cord.

this week going by so quickly made me happy, and that i got my CS3 package.
the only thing that frustrated me this week was the stupid fire truck horn.
i want to go over and re-learn how to use everything again, since it's been so long.
this week i learned that nobody is in a good mood anymore!

Weekley Comment (5)

this week went by really fast, which was really good for me since I didn't have much to do for NCCC because I finished everything that was supposed to be handed in. that made me REALLY happy.

what frustrated me was that whole niagara county thing and figuring out what things I specifically wanted to talk about.

I would like to be able to be more "imaginative" about what projects I want to do and what I want to accomplish with those projects.

I need to get started on those tutorials so I get a "refresher" of final cut.

My Favorite Podcast

My favorite podcast so far is called 95.5 WBRU. There are a few different host's and they have interviewed some of my favorite music artists. They ask some funny questions in some of their "shows." It's really great to be able to listen to famous people to see that they actually can be down to earth people and aren't really stuck up in the whole "I'm famous, so you suck," kind of thing.

Microsoft Surface

This is really cool, I found it on gapingvoid's blog. It's called the Microsoft Surface, go to the site and watch the three videos, it's amazing. Somebody buy it for me!

What is a Podcast?

A podcast is something you record, either audio or video and put the broadcast files on the internet for subscribers to view or listen to. Some podcasts are free while you have to subscribe and pay for others. Podcasts can be about anything, a specific topic for every show, or random subjects. You can view or listen to podcasts using your computer, iPod's, and mp3 players that can support the files. SIRIUS, a satellite radio is a good place to find podcasts, especially to listen to Howard Stern. You can get news updates, entertainment, sports updates, music, and many personalities to listen to. iTunes also supports podcasts, it even has its own library for them.

For a step-by-step tutorial on how to podcast, you can use this website.
