One Thousand Times [time lapse]
I’ve driven this route a thousand times… and I sped it up 1000% in iMovie ’09:
Flying home [float plane trip part II]
Here’s the flight home via float plane from Victoria’s inner harbour to downtown Vancouver: As before, shot with the Kodak Zi6 and edited with iMovie ’09.
Vancouver to Victoria via floatplane
Earlier this month I went to Victoria for a conference and am just now getting around to posting some video from the trip. The floatplane flight from harbour to harbour was on a rainy and cold Sunday afternoon but I think the video turned out pretty decent despite the weather. Shot with my Kodak Zi6…
Vancouver Twestival 2009

Random stuff from WordCamp Whistler 2009
Finally back home from Whistler after a great weekend up there for WordCamp Whistler where I met a ton of new people and was able to spend time with many friends. It was nice to get out of Vancouver for a change of scenery and yet have so many familiar faces around. I thought I’d…
My WordCamp Whistler 2009 Session Notes
During my talk at WordCamp Whistler, I mentioned a number of plugins you can use on your WordPress site. I created a demo site to show how these things work…don’t know how long I’ll leave it up but it’s all in use on my main site here. For pulling in your Flickr photos into your…
