iMovie for iPad2

by

Some time back, I wrote a review of iMovie on the iPhone 4. This was shortly after the app was first available and I didn’t give it a very good review. It was buggy, limited and difficult to control with precision.

Now, with the advent of the iPad 2, Apple has revamped iMovie to be a universal iPhone 4/iPad 2 app. I’ve recently had the opportunity to try out the iPad version in a real-world situation.

We recently had an employee appreciation event at my work and a co-worker and I used our iPhone 4’s to record video and pictures of the event. I then proceeded, at the event, to edit the video on my iPad.

Too Lazy to Blog – Don’t Watch this video

by

Seriously, I’m just not blogging enough lately, so I’ve decided to experiment with vlogging instead. I’ve got the camera with me all the time, so why not? Answer: This video right here.

I’ve watched through this episode 3 times and still … Read more

Primeval – S04E01 – Review

All this tweeting and podcasting and suddenly I just don’t have time to review new science fictions shows – or, if I do, I do it on the podcast. That just doesn’t seem right, and one of the staples of my blog has always been reviewing episodes of Primeval. Pity they cancelled it, isn’t it? … Read more

Garmin 1490T GPS goes to DisneyLand

by

A couple months ago, I purchased a Garmin 1490T GPS at Costco. Although I’ve wanted a car GPS for some time, but couldn’t justify it just for driving around Phoenix. The pending trip to DisneyLand, smack in the middle of the freeway hell that is the Los Angeles metropolitan area, was ample justification. While I’ve … Read more

A Time to Feel Small and a Time to Feel Special

In this galaxy, there’s a mathematical probability of three million Earth-type planets. And in all of the universe, three million million galaxies like this. And in all of that and perhaps more, only one of each of us. Don’t destroy the one named Kirk. – Dr. Leonard “Bones” McCoy Ol’ Doc McCoy may or may … Read more
