Saving Time

Sunday, January 27th, 2008

Screen capturing is a drain. I’ve mentioned before about the awesomeness of mplayer, but this time there is no turning back. This method is sure-fire for all those bloggers who feel that screen-capping takes too long.

Pausing

Just a short entry about how I’ll probably not post here that often, but… I am doing episodic reflections, just the system (RSS) isn’t quite online at the moment (working on that). Seeing how the semester has begun, I’ve also given another push towards furthering my Japanese communication skills. Busting out the kanji flashcards, audio conversations, books, etc, I’m probably going to spend as much time practicing as I do enjoying anime and such.

Speaking of anime. I think my variety of Japanese media has been much to proportioned to anime and music, so I’d like to take some time to enjoy live-actions, manga, novels (light and not); the way it was a while back.

All this cuts back on the blogging time, but I really don’t have much I want to convey in an editorial fashion at the moment. Also, AB.net seems to be having trouble and I don’t get much traffic anyway, so… I think that’s enough strikes against heavy blogging for now. Really, I need to focus on another web-application, because it is dawning on a year and still not online (even after 13,000 lines of real code).

I haven’t given up my pursuit: making media relative; it’s built-in…. melative.com.
