My humble attempts to create video. I'm on Twitter and cross post to my blog Joe's Video, Etc on blogspot.
I won a free night at the Roger Smith Hotel on Lexington Ave. in New York City. Regardless of it being free, I felt that I had to give these people some videoblog love because it's such a nice place to stay. Even at the standard walk-in rate, these rooms are real bargains.The Roger Smith's rooms are spacious by any measure and ginormous by NYC standards, where most rooms are so small you have to go out in the corridor to change your mind. :)And for you social media people, there's always a Twi...
What's funny about this one is Laura (@pistacho) Fitton saying, "I only have about 200 followers on Twitter." How times have changed. Now she has over 41,000!
Back in August of 2007, in Twitter's infancy, I had a cook-out at my house. One of the conversations revolved around the need for "groups" on Twitter. Since this feature, now called Lists, has finally been added, I thought it might be fun to see what people were talking about way back when. It seems we didn't really get everything we wanted. See if you can spot some of the now-well-known peeps sitting around the table. Drop a comment if you recognize anyone. :)
Tonight, we attended a very lavish wine tasting at the Mystic Art Association space in downtown Mystic, CT. It was sponsored by the Mystic Liions' Club.
Today I in the mail, I received a dose of the financial reports that I've come to expect from various funds and stocks that I'm invested in. The one from Barclay's Captial just offended me. It's as thick as a local phonebook and has densely printed prose, tables and graphs on every page. My question is, who on earth is going to read any of that? This is a horrible waste of natural resources and simply denudes forests to fill up landfills. All this information is undoubtedly online but the defa...
Showing folks how to upload video for blogs.
My Twitter-friend @Danacea (Danie Ware) is always wishing for "proper snow" where she lives in England, but never seems to get her wish. So, since we're having one of our relatively infrequent snows here on the shore in Connecticut today, I thought I'd make a little video for her amusement. Enjoy watching me slave away moving that white stuff Danie!
Today, I was privileged to join Diner Aficionados Scott Monty and CC Chapman on a very fun road trip to Worcester, Massachusetts to visit The Boulevard Diner on Shrewsbury St. The Boulevard is an authentic old railroad diner car built right in Worcester in 1938. I and my fraternity brothers used to visit the Boulevard, a 24 hr, 6 days/wk, establishment in the wee hours after parties when I was an engineering undergrad at WPI in the late 60s. That's right folks, I used to go there 40 years ago,...
