Revision as of 23:01, 2 June 2006
Background
- Born 1968
- Married with one daughter, Elena born 15th march 2005
Distractions
- Computers
- Captivated since first games console - the Grandstand 2000
- These days he mostly...
- Surfs the net, websites he finds useful...
- Alibris if a book exists then you should be able to buy it here new or used
- Irows provides spreadsheets as a software service, it's free
- Clesh internet video for people that want a stress free life, the consumer flavour integrates with DV cameras, web, mobile phones, and comes with full professional grade editing capability (the proper professional version does a lot more), both the viewing and the editing work within a browser, no special video sofware needs to be installed - all it needs is Java - check whether you have Java by visiting this site
- Gmail is packed with features and storage capacity, it's free
- eBay to help find a new life for things you'd otherwise throw away (it's not cheap!)
- BBC for the coverage, readability, and freshness of the content
- Starts various small projects that seem a good idea at the time yet never quite reach completion
- Amateur Videography
- Since roughly 2004 he has owned a variety of digital camcorders
- JVC GR-DV700
- The 1.3 mega pixel still photo capability out performed more modern cameras with much higher resolutions. Theft forced a change. Unfortunately the thief also took my footage of Asimo's visit to the London Science museum. Tip for camera owners - don't leave your tapes inside your machines. Request to thieves - take the camera by all means but please eject the tapes first.
- Panasonic NV GS120
- An OK camera, the mpeg-4 facility is handy, no manual focus and no analogue input, and the 1.7 mega pixel still camera is a disappointment. The flash is badly located too. Still, you can unload your cassette whilst attached to a tripod.
- Sony DCR-IP220 MICROMV
- Great camera with lots of whizzy gadgets, good usability, and ultra tiny cassettes. The one problem being no regular Digital Video output.
- Panasonic NV GS200
- Upgrade to the GS120. All the same functions but more mega pixels (2.3 but the images are still no better!). Adds a manual focus ring plus analogue input. The flash is still badly mounted and rendered useless once a lens is attached. The mpeg-4 recording facility is quite handy and it manages with DV in/out.
- For an internet video platform (uploading, hosting, editing, and publishing to the internet and mobile phones) he uses the Java-based Clesh primarily on the grounds of low cost, ease of use, reliability, and accessibility. Read more about Clesh here. If you have an opinion on the application of this technology to Misplaced Pages you can read/discuss a proposal for this here.
