RasterWeb!Those pesky IT guys got you down? They been messin’ with the DNS again? Using Mac OS X?
Running the following command should clear your DNS cache, and is much easier that rebooting…
lookupd -flushcache
Failing that, if you’ve just got a host or two you can’t connect to, you can always just add the hostname with the correct IP address to your /etc/hosts file…
I’m back from DelMarVa, which is some sort of weird way the East-Coasters say “Delaware, Maryland, Virginia…”
There will be many photos, and most likely some video (and perhaps even some text) to follow…. Of course I still have zombies to deal with, so we’ll see how it goes…
If you need me, I’ll be over near the east coast… Just call me. If you don’t have the number, use AIM… or whatever…
In the meantime…
I had forgotten that long ago I helped beta test TypePad… When I recently tried to log in, it showed my account as suspended, but had an offer for some discount codes… Here’s the text I got:
As our thanks for taking the time to help beta test, we’re offering you the chance to share the savings of a 20% lifetime discount with twenty of your friends and family members. We really appreciate the community that has formed during testing and we hope that it continues to thrive as the service grows.
They gave me twenty keys to apply when signing up with TypePad, and since I don’t even know twenty people without weblogs, they are up for grabs… (I assume they are still good. I think TypePad came out of beta a few years ago!) Just reply in the comments or contact me and I’ll send you one. (Include your email address obviously!)
Well, I did learn that when digitizing video, do not create a file over 2 gigs in size, since that won’t import into iMovie (at least the version I have installed!)
Anyway, after much importing and compressing (and a little editing) we have the first video from the Madison Zombie Lurch 2005, which I last mentioned days ago…
I’ll get more footage online next week, and I’ll try to get it loaded at Ourmedia as well as at blip.tv…
