Our good friend Josh gives us the skinny on three of the biggest video sharing sites.
futurabolditalic:vimeo is for when you want great quality
fbi:viddler is for when you want speed and features
fbi:youtube is for when you want retards calling you “fag” in the comments
Full test of all three to follow shortly.
I get the concern – but really how is this not fricken hilarious? The local auto mall has a huge full color LCD sign – how funny would it be if it ran the following: “The Current Zombie Attack Warning Level is ELEVATED.“

I’ve got more than a few things to get done today. I spent the better part of the week sitting on my hands for the most part and getting nothing done except for a few lackluster workouts.
Well, maybe that is not entirely correct. I did get a few things done this week.
- Got another website customer, and another possible is in the works.
- Created a new business card. Printing them next week.
- Upgraded the iMac to 4GB of RAM. All I can say is holy crap!
- Sent my resume out 5 times
- Gave serious thought towards getting serious about starting my own company
- Napped
- Made another video to test iMovie ‘09. More on this later.
- Made an episode of THCS. I need to order a new mixer bad.
- Spent more time that I care to admit on Facebook
I can tell you about this site, which is cool. It’s a site for an old time Hot Rod guy (like, one of the pioneers of the whole thing) with cool photos and some history. He recently passed away and his family wants to be able to post old articles and photos and all that. Perfect job for Wordpress. I’ll let you know when it’s done so you can check it out.
I also have changes coming to this site. I put together some really cool stuff when I was ‘at the job’ and one of them was the coda slider. I’m going to try to incorporate into this site for latest posts, portfolio snippets, video and a contact form on the home page. Watch for that.
Go watch the video. It’s funny. I might post it here, but I forgot to not cuss, so maybe not.
We have covered this before, right? I am pretty sure that we have.
One of my biggest annoyances is getting asked for my opinion or assitance, only to have that opinion or assistance questioned or not taken. Made even more super-extra-hyper annoying when I invest a sizable chunk of my day to the endeavor. Sizeable chunk here would be 10 minutes or more.
Instead of laying down a huge rant this time, I thought instead of sharing a few suggestions to assist you in wasting less of my, or anyone else’, time.
- First check any owners manual or user guide or help file. Good chance the answer you are seeking might be found there
- Check any emails you might have. Do they answer your question?
- Perhaps you have heard of this really cool website called Google? It’s awesome! It will let you search for things on the internet.
- Run back through the procedure one more time.
- Find another refernce. Magazines, websites, message boards, yellow pages
If you have run through any of the options that do not require my interaction and are still stuck, then repeat steps 1-5 above one more time. Still stuck?
Whoa there turbo. Don’t go all question askin’ on me yet. Before you do, take a minute to think about the possible answer you are going to get from your askee. Do you think you will like the answer? Do you think you will take the advice? Or, will you ask the question, question the answer and do what you first thought you would anyway?
If you are 90% sure you will take the advice, then go ahead and ask.
If, however, your mission is to be a douche bag and ignore or question any advice given by your askee, then keep it to yourself.
For those of you that have been following along with my exploits for a while you already know that I don’t like to make the bed and I’m poor at wrapping gifts. Here is yet another for the list.
Laundry.
I. Friggen. Hate. Doing. Laundry.
I don’t like sorting it. Don’t like putting it into the machine. Don’t like switching it from the washer to the dryer. Don’t like to haul it back into the house. Don’t like to fold it. Don’t like to put it away.
When I am rich and famous from all of the google and amazon affliate cash I’m raking in, the first thing I am going to do is find someone that I can pay to do my laundry.
This isn’t a new hate for me either I will have you know. I’ve not been a fan of doing laundry ever since Mom started making me do my own when I was 13. I really hated doing it then, and, if possible, I think I hate it even more now.
I don’t know where the hate stems from, but it’s there. Who knows, maybe one day I will come to appreciate the chore known as laundry and maybe, just maybe, look forward to doing it.
For now, I hate it.
