February 19th, 2008WetPaint wikis in plain english

WetPaint is a hosted wiki service that I haven’t really used before - I tend to stick with WikiSpaces, though have used pbwiki a fair bit recently for the barcampukgovweb.

By the looks of this great video from the Common Craft guys, though, WetPaint seems to be pretty feature packed. Might have to give it a go.

February 5th, 2008Video upload weirdness

I have been trying to upload the screencast I did for Pageflakes onto blip.tv and YouTube so it’s a bit easier for people to access. Trouble is, I’m not having much luck with it.

My screencasting package, BBFlashback, has produced a 60-odd mb WMV file (am back on the Windows machine for this job, folks) and everytime I try to upload it to a video sharing service, the resultant video doesn’t move - my dulcet tones work their way through producing a public Pageflake page, but the screen just shows the original image from the start of the clip. Then, when the audio stops, the video starts moving.

Is there something I am doing wrong here, chaps?

Inspired by the recent screenwriters’ strike in Hollywood - what if bloggers refused to blog?

Thanks to Simon Dickson for pointing out this oddity. I suppose it’s a difficult line to tread, but this definitely falls on the “has he nothing better to do?” side of things.
