    Update

    Watch Movie

    I haven't posted any video really lately.
    I've been crazy busy with schoolwork and life in general.
    I do give a nice clip of Sage Francis for all to enjoy though.

    Question for readers/watchers

    Hey all readers/watchers! I need some help.
    I opened up VlogDan from school today and all of my images were gone. Most of my images are linked from a bravenet server, but when I view it from home, it looks fine. I've even cleared my cache to make sure I get a fresh load.

    Here's how VD looks on my computer from home on either IE or Firefox.

    But from a scool computer, it's covered in these.

    Please let me know what you see by leaving a comment.
    Thanks,
    Dan

    FFVII Advent Children: It's Here!!

    Watch Movie

    Finally, it's here.
    I've been waiting for this movie since they announced that
    they were making it. I could have gotten it from Japan with
    subtitles, but then, last week they had a trailer with
    English over-dubbing, and I realized that it was true.
    I bought it right after school.

    Who ya gonna call?

    The front of the car

    The side: I love the slogan.

    Through the back window: this is one of the gun/packs
    that the Ghostbusters wore when battling ghouls.

    So yesterday I was in Roseville at a Caribou/Brueggers working on a Biology project with my lab partners, and this car was parked outside. It was crazy! It had the ambulance flashers on top, the little sattelite dishes, and all of the other appropriate decor. Sorry for the bad quality of the pics; they were taken with my cell phone.

    TBM Reaction

    Watch Movie

    This was a little while after we went to the meeting.
    I had a really good time, and one of the board members suggested
    that I apply for a job working for the city.

    First Town Board Meeting

    Watch Movie

    As promised, we went.
    It was a little dry and boring, but I learned a lot about
    different city forms, and I feel lucky to live in the
    biggest township in the state.

    Vlogging Week 2006




    So I (with Jen) decided that Videoblogging Week 2006
    would be held at Dan and Jen's Animal Friends.
    I felt that the videos may be a little bland if I tried to
    do it by myself, and I didn't want to do it on both sites;
    who knows, maybe next year.
    Here's a list of the participants: List

    Video coming soon; I went to a Town Board meeting on Monday,
    and I got some footage that I need to throw together.
    Very interesting.

    Videoblogging Week 2006

    Copied from WeAretheMedia.com:

    Videoblogging Week 2006!

    You may have heard of Videoblogging Week before, well this year is going to be even bigger!

    April 3-9, seven days of vlogging. One video a day!

    Get involved and get ready to do some serious vlogging!


    Be sure to tag your videos with "“videobloggingweek2006"


    I think I'm definitely going to participate, but I don't know whether to do it in the format of Dan and Jen's Animal Friends, VlogDan, or both.
    One obstacle may be that my videos have always come to me rather than me searching for a "story."

    Site Icon Tutorial

    Watch Movie

    I have always really liked when sites had the little icon
    in the address bar to the left of the URL, and until yesterday
    I didn't know how to do it. I made this rough tutorial because
    I figured many others would like to know how to do it too.

    The picture links to the full video, and the links (below)
    are the video in three parts so it will load faster.
    Part 1
    Part 2
    Part 3
