A Work In Progress

This is a demonstration, using an iMac (Intel Core Duo 2.0) with Quicktime and the MTV HD video. The purpose of this video is to demonstrate how actively resizing the video window changes the perspective of emphasis of the video content.

This is a demonstration, using an iMac (Intel Core Duo 2.0) with Quicktime and the MTV HD video. The purpose of this video is to demonstrate how actively resizing the video window changes the perspective of emphasis of the video content. This is a work in progress and I will make another one next week. I would suggest watching the MTV HD video first, just so you can have a better feeling of what the video is in its original form.

Google Ad’s?

Ok so i’m getting kinda annoying and wondering why my site had ads about ‘keeping children safe’ and ‘sex offenders lists’ and ‘teen sexual addiction recovery centers’.

MTV HD

This is a very beautiful graphic commercial for the new MTV HD channel that is coming soon. I think I may try to make a ring tone out of it for my Blackberry. If anybody is interested, let me know.

Dual Displays, So Last Year

I have been using my computer with dual displays for quite a while now. And while there is no way I would go back to using just a single display, I’m starting to consider getting a third (and possibly fourth) display.


I have been using my computer with dual displays for quite a while now. And while there is no way I would go back to using just a single display, I’m starting to consider getting a third (and possibly fourth) display. I am having a hard time finding what I want though: dual-DVI output for both video cards. I looked at the NVidia Quadro 1440, however I’m getting confused by whether it is possible to use two cards because they bother operate on 16x PCI-e.
Anyway, this article talks about how adding a second display can increase your productivity by 30%. Good read.

Take that RIAA

As I am sure you all know, I am an Apple freak. Now that we are clear on that, it looks like the record labels may finally give up on their quest to get ‘variable pricing’ on the iTunes Music Store. via New York Post
