I’ve written before about how my interests tend to go in cycles. I haven’t played Sims 2 or Civ 4 in ages. In fact, since getting to work after Christmas Break I haven’t really taken many photos either. I became consumed with Blender and getting my animations done. Then Vimeo raised the upload limit from 30 mb to 250 mb and I suddenly had to digitize all those video clips I”d been waiting forever to digitize. Here’s a video Vimeo asked us to make - they said to make a video celebrating the increase.
250: Vimeo News! on Vimeo
And so I have spent the past week or so working on digitizing, editing, and uploading videos. My animation and photography went on hold. And I used to be really into video in high school and the beginning of Cornell. However, I stopped for two reasons - 1) video is more time-consuming than photography and 2) there was no “flickr” for video.
And now I have a new record for Vimeo views - 324 last wednesday. So I’m quite happy with my latest obsession. When it comes down to it - if I’m going to spend my limited time doing something - it may was well be what I’ve always loved: photography and video editing. The video games can sit there collecting dust and, if I can muster the will power, I doubt I’ll be buying another one. (Except multiplayer games like Wii sports that I can play with my wife, brothers, and in-laws)

If there’s one thing those of us who have been creating websites for a long time know - it’s that inlining images is not to be tolerated. It’s considered very rude to waste someone else’s bandwidth - especially since they are probably paying per mb. What’s inlining you say? It’s displaying an image on your website when that image is on another server. You’re supposed to download the image to your server and then put it up. That way you only waste your own bandwidth. When the owner of the blog ascii.textfiles.com found out that someone had decided to use an image of his inlined in myspace templates, he had to get back at them. So he replaced the image with a very, very disgusting one. That’ll teach those stupid tweens not to inline images!
