I’m Back!
February 8, 2009 Embedded Videos, General, Qik Videos No CommentsHas it really been nearly two months since I’ve truly updated this? Yikes. The problem with December and working in retail, as you can imagine, is the fact that it gets busy. Really busy. After finishing my last semester of school, I went from 16 hours a week of part time work to over 40 hours a week. Then I still had my regular music industry jobs on top of it. Plus I had other personal matters to attend to that got put aside because of school…
But now it’s died down at work now and this semester has proved to be less stressful overall. One class, Macroeconomics, is an online course, so I get a four day weekend from college! That being said, I’m going to try to update this more regularly now…
I suppose part of delay of posting is the fact that social networking sites provide me with an outlet to update daily with my happenings and opinions. As I keep saying, the best way to keep up to date with me is on Twitter. I’m also going to start using Qik a lot more heavily, now that I have an iPhone (yes, I got an iPhone. An entry just on that is coming soon). My BlackBerry Pearl’s camera wasn’t worth using Qik since it was such bad quality…
What is Qik you ask? It’s a way to stream video live (yes, live!) from your cell phone to the internet. It’s very cool. I may also post an entry dedicated to Qik in the future. Here’s a video of me testing it out with my iPhone at the Eaton Centre in the heart of Toronto:
So that brings me back up to speed. Like I said, an iPhone entry will be coming shortly. I’ll say what lead me to picking it up, plus how I’m using it in conjunction with social networking/media… Stay tuned…
Until then, keep following me on Twitter! It updates when I upload videos to Qik, pictures from my iPhone, etc.
Now if only I could find a way to integrate Qik into my blog design like I do with Flickr and Twitter… Unless I just post a blog post each time once I get home (so it won’t actually be live). We’ll see…
