1 year, 3 months, and 3 days ago

That was when I last posted a blog here. Mmmm, I still remember the G33k B33r...

Anyway, I've made many websites and blogs over the course of my relationship with the internet. So many of them have been abandoned, and dissolved into the void of internet past. Perhaps debris exists somewhere in google's massive server caches. Who knows.

But now, alas, I have yet another new blog and another website!! For my video productions site, with a video count currently at 0, I give you:

And my own personal blog, which was started within the last week, is at:

Thanks for watching!

G33k B33r: Bawls!

Alrighty, so I received my first shipment of G33k B33r (Root Beer Bawls) yesterday. I say first, because it wont be my last. It was amazing! It is root beer, caffeinated with Guarana. And surprisingly, they taste just like root beer! 

I'm not a big soda drinker, I limit myself to mostly just energy drinks (Bawls, sometimes Red Bull, and the occasional "Amp"). So, I haven't had a root beer in over 3 years. But this got me craving root beer all the tyme now. I even made a G33k B33r float! (Note: Not smart to do at 12:30am) I highly recommend it to root beer fans or even non root beer fans, since, well root beer tastes way better than coffee or your typical energy drink.

The obligatory unboxing photos ensue!

iPhone + Growl + Twitter = My Wish

UPDATE(7/14/09): So, tymes have changed since then. I was able to figure out a way for growl to e-mail them to twitter. It worked, but the character limit was a buzz kill. So after months of yearning, I got my wish and was not satisfied. However, 2 weeks ago, I heard of an iPhone app that, for $2.99, will send growl notifications to your phone and computer, and with PUSH! Awesomeness! But, I have neither the $2.99 nor the strong desire to have growl notifications on my phone. Maybe it will come back to me... At that point, I will have to make a trip to the bank to deposit some quarters...

Here's what I want: 

• I go on my iPhone. 
• Then I can click on either a Twitter webapp or a Twitter app (through jailbrake).
• I am then taken to my twitter's and my list of friends.
  
• In my timeline would also be my macbook's recent growl notifications.

What I need is for growl to twitter each notification to a twitter account i set up specifically for this. I could use twitterific since it supports twittering through apple script. I just need to be able to invoke either an apple script or automator action after each growl notification. Also, the information in that notification needs be able to be passed through to the action. :-(

iPhone Posting

Testing out posting to the blog from my phone.

Projects

UPDATE (7/14/09): Accomplished none of these. And the HDD is till wrapped in tape and used weekly...

I am constantly thinking of new projects that I never have the tyme, nor money for.

     Computer: Put more pictures on Flickr, but that is going to have to wait until my MacBook is sent back to me from it's repairs. Also, see if I can get muliple pages here, or atleast links that will seperate my posts based off tags, such as: Video Clips, Pictures, Life. I'd like to start posting original video clips here. Prob use youtube since I could then browse it on my fone or apple tv.

     Gadgets: Create a new case for my 40g external HDD. Its barely held together since i took it apart two years ago. Attach the USB extension cord to my desk, so I can easily plug in my thumbdrive. Buy a USB hub. Maybe this one from think geek: http://www.thinkgeek.com/computing/name/asc/4/25

Mac OS X Leopard

UPDATE (7/14/09): Safari 4 gave me this feature. Now, on the top right, next to google search, I have a new tab button, yay...

One Gripe:

          Been using Leopard since launch day. Since I did a clean install, I thought that I would give Safari a chance. I've used Firefox since before the switch from PC, and I have really enjoyed it. However, Safari's integration with the OS and the iPhone make it tempting. 

          What I miss is the customization of Firefox. I want to place a "New Tab" button in the toolbar. I used that religiously. I don't like cmd clicking one of the bookmarks. It's fine enough when I'm using the mighty mouse, then I can center click one of the bookmarks as a basis for the new tab, but I have the mouse with me rarely. What to do?

First Post!

Need a place to post stuff. So, here I am. Just made a flickr account. Been usin twitter for awhile. MySpace for longer than that. One place to bring it all together, plus more. Why not?
