Sea Birds, Princeton-By-The-Sea, California, November ‘07, artistic view.
Initially my plan was to keep this blog around my YouTube related events and activities. However, now I think that adding other issues may make it a bit more interesting. Has anybody even read it once up to this moment? I have no counter, and thus, no way of knowing if anybody even looks at those blogs. With time this will become more obvious, but now let us just type something and hope that some passers - by are going to stop at least for a second or two. Google search is showing at least some of those blogs, noticed that yesterday for the very first time.
Finished reading Jimmy Webb's Tunesmith - Inside the Art of Songwriting. Sounds like at least some parts of this book were written on the island of Kauai, not far from were I shot my Oahu videos. Do not read much into it. There is one thing that I found interesting in this book related to new songs or even albums that well known groups are about to release. Usually those groups do not say much details about songs and keep their fans guessing. This is clever and applies equally well to videos, even YouTube videos.
Watched Celine Dion DVD A new day ... last night. It's pretty good and comes from Las Vegas, of course. The show making and behind scenes on a second DVD are even better. Will no doubt watch it few more times. Do you listen to CDs on Audacity? Or any other good audio software? It gives you a bit more than just listening to songs on your iPod or just CD player. Try it.
It is time to expand this blog or maybe even create a separate web site with a blog. In order to refresh my somewhat rusty HTML memories, I bought Creating Web Pages for DUMMIES, 8 ed, by B.E. Smith, and A. Bebak. Used to be quite fluent with HTML in the past, but not much involved recently. Time to refresh my memory.
A JOBY flexible tripod arrived from eBay, actually from Hong Kong, but from somebody selling on eBay. In several situations I was not able to move a big tripod into place during video shooting, with that small one I may be able to fill that gap. If only days were longer...
