Changes are afoot.

Mar 21, 2007 20:24

Feature requests and product evolution are natural. Project mutation is also natural, but MedVisor seems to be mutating too quickly, through logical feature requests and over promising to get a sale.

MedVisor is currently a quicktime movie player (though only our movies) and minor image editor (users can pause movies and mark up the frame, or import their own images to be marked up and export them again).

Feature requests are leading it in to also being a video editor (ability for users to record their own voice track for the movies), web page authoring tool, dvd authoring tool, CD burning tool, and possibly a toaster ...

Okay, maybe not a toaster.

I've got Episode 5 recorded. Now I just need to edit, encode and upload. ;)

In other-podcaster-news, Tee released Billibub Baddings Episode 6.
Also new episodes of Slice of SciFi and Technorama released today. Good general geek podcasts.

Still waiting for Geek Cred Episode 5. Come on, Steve!

I kid. I've been hanging out in #geekcred@irc.geekcred.net for a few weeks and have gotten to know Steve reasonably well. He deserves some good natured ribbing. Give him a call at 206-424-9125 and leave a voice mail giving him flak now that I've passed him in episode count. ;)

Speaking of IRC, I used to just hang out in #shawisland@irc.sorcery.net and Trillian's IRC was fine. Now that I'm idling in five rooms on three servers at work, I need a different client. I tried avoiding mIRC, but ended up using it anyway, for now. LeafChat looks neat, but either I was misconfiguring it or it simply won't allow connections to more than one server. Visual IRC 2 also looks neat. I may just need to spend some more time with it to get it to automagically highlight keywords.

Exchange 2007 seems to have a new feature called Outlook Voice Access, a system to allow users to call in and hear their emails, and even respond in voice. I just hope the executives at work don't get wind of this for a while ... ;) It seems that Exchange Server upgrades either go completely smoothly, or require some obscure, barely documented tweak or else your Exchange store (at best) or Active Directory forest (worst case) burn and die.

This is really kinda rambly now isn't it ... and I should really wrap this up so I can edit and get to bed at a reasonable time so I don't sleep through the 9AM meeting ...

Karak Fact #89 - This one's pretty obvious, but I don't think I've mentioned it before. I am fluent in the English language.
