After dinner tonight we headed to Midwestern State University to the Fantasy of Lights as it was the last day and due to weather and a busy holiday week we hadn’t taken the kids to see them. It was still cold (just below 40F) but was nice. Plus this gave me the chance to have my first blog of the new year to be a video. Tomorrow I will be posting my resolutions for 2008 along with my plan to Blog365. You can see more Fantasy of Lights pics in my flickr gallery.
Just a quick Merry Christmas video. Attempting to get the food started while the kids are busy with new toys. Lots of pictures uploaded to flickr already so check ‘em out. Remember more videos coming in the new year.
I had actually planned to post a blog today but didn’t get time so here is a quick Me Today instead. This one shows my current workspace at home. Nothing much at the moment as I really want a new desk when I switch computers. The light in the room is really bright as I hate having it dark but it causes problems with my crappy cam.
I have been a blogger since 2003. I have always been interested in new media. I have done audio and video editing in the past (promotional dvd’s, highlight reels, music videos, etc) and have always wanted to do more in that field. I haven’t really jumped on the VideoBlogging/Podcasting wagon. I do enjoy many podcasts and videobloggers though. Clintus McGintus is of course awesome. I’ve also watched a few of his Justin.tv casts and he really shows his interest in new media and video. Then you have Brent Spore of iBoughtAMac and PodcampAZ who is a very interesting guy. Then who could forget Justine. She is the internet. She not only vlogs but is also a lifecaster as seen on Justin.tv. It becomes addicting to watch her and is sometimes hard to keep up with her as she is everywhere most recently at PodcampAZ and now at BlogWorld.
As I said before I’m more of a blogger (and some say not much of that, to which… I would agree). I do however plan to join the vlog scene and start video blogging. This is one of my plans for the new year. I’m not sure how it will go but we will see. I don’t plan to lifecast (although might be cool in the future to go mobile and lifecast) I might put up a cam at my desk (much like Clintus and Chris Pirillo). Personally I love catching up on everybody’s videos and reading blogs and my Google Reader is growing with loads of new feeds. I planned to keep this post short so thats it for today.
