We have a sophisticated way of categorizing Ike damage.

Know what this is?



We are trying to figure out what creature left this scat in the middle of our sidewalk at work in Texas....

K-Sketch, for small animations

Just trying out K-Sketch, a new little tool for doing fun animations. I couldn't figure out how to embed a swf file in Blogger, so I just "filmed" the screen and uploaded the video. It's fun. I'm going to get the kids working on some flicks.

See you wait long enough and it fixes itself...

It's Broke For Some Reason

Flickr and Blogspot don't seem to be playing together too well today. Not really sure why, I'm just hoping it fixes itself over the weekend.

We have a big weekend...

We have a big weekend plan, two basketball games, two soccer games, and baseball registration, then we head to Dallas to do a little shopping on to Waco(?), back to do some bird-watching and back home finally. I hoping it's a lot of fun and not just a lot of work.

Another fun application

I've been playing with "Jott", which is a web based application that transcribes your voice and does stuff with it. You set it up and tell it what you want it to do when you call. You load in your contacts information. Then you call the number on your phone.

It asks "who do you want to Jott?". You tell it a name, or a distribution list, from your contacts group and then speak your message. It translates it into text and emails the person with the message.

You can also have it link to your Google Calendar application, so you can phone-in appointments. You literally just call it and say "Google Calendar, I have a dentist appointment at 3:00 next Thursday". It adds that appointment to your calendar magically. I use it to update my to-do list application "Remember the Milk". I just phone in my to-do's and there they magically are in the software when I get back to my desk.

It's a hoot. You should play with it some.

My daughter is having her 11th birthday today. She's gone to see the movie Enchanted with her mom, I'm staying home and watching the Football playoffs. Bummer. listen

I am posting this by...

I am posting this by dialing on my phone to Jott and then it transcribes it to text and it will send it to my Website. This is just a test message to see how well this works. listen

I'm Back

Took a few days off for the Holidays and got a chance to see some good friends and family far, far away. Trip went well and was very enjoyable.

Now it's back to the salt mines and trying to do two weeks worth of work in one day! All of the things that I put off to go on vacation have now come back to haunt me.

Oh well, LSU will beat OSU tonight and Buckeyes will be disappointed again and 0-9 against the SEC.
