Ainsley, our dog, knows not to eat until we tell her to.   The spouse-unit got a rare photo where she's only drooling a little bit on her food while she waits.

I upgraded to Aperture 1.5 so I could try the Flickr Export plugin.  It works, it's great.

Since the workflow is much easier now I'll get more photos from Malaysia and Denmark uploaded soon...

"The president of the United States has claimed, on more than one occasion, to be in dialogue with God. If he said that he was talking to God through his hairdryer, this would precipitate a national emergency. I fail to see how the addition of a hairdryer makes the claim more ridiculous or offensive."

We're back in Los Angeles since some time ago (we were in Denmark for a few weeks after Malaysia). Super busy busy with "various projects".  Some fun and non-paying, some interesting and paying, some exciting and secret.

I got a fancy filmscanner, but have only taken time to scan one photo!  Oops.

I posted some more photos from the Malaysia trip to Flickr.  ... and some fun photos from the mid-90s - fun if you are someone in the photos at least.

More over at my other weblog.

(the rest of the photos will come later...)

Where's the Vox API?

I realize with all the features here it'd be a complicated afair, but all I want is something so I can copy my posts off somewhere else for safekeeping.

What was the first movie you remember seeing in a movie theater? 

Ronja Røverdatter in movie theater where ten years later I'd work while being in school, Grand Teatret. I don't remember the movie, but I remember being in line by the stairs at the door.

The next movie I remember seeing in a theater was 7 years later when I left school early to go see Terminator 2 in Imperial.   I don't remember the timing, but not long after that I started watching pretty much every movie opening in Copenhagen.  Except for a break, ironically, while I was working at the movie theater I continued to do that until I ended up in California.

I've never been much for putting my data "somewhere else".  Flickr, of course, convinced me to do it for my photos.   Vox, I think, will convince me to do it for some of my weblog publishing needs.  (I just hate writing "blogging", yuck).

My usual weblog is completely devoid of anything particular personal.   Sorry, I'm just too shy to write anything personal to 50 to 150 thousand perfect strangers.

With the clever "friends only" setting on Vox, maybe it won't be so strange to do.  We'll see.  Until then I'm just enjoying the slick UI.

(Of course, even if I only want to invite an insignificantly tiny marginal fraction of last months 75000 visitors to askask.com, my one remaining invite to Vox is going to fall a bit short).

  (Yay, got more invites, thank you  benevolent benefactor)
