Flip Video now available in Canada

I was in a Wal-Mart up here in Aurora Ontario this weekend, and while sauntering by the electronics section I saw a couple of Flip Video cameras on display for sale. The price was something close to $155.00 as I recall. Up until now I think the Flip Camera was sold exclusively in the States. [...]

The Flip Video Camera – Thoughts and Some Sample Videos

Shortly before I went to Las Vegas, I decided I’d like to buy the Flip Video Ultra camcorder while I was down there.

Episode 045 – Snapshot Mosaic

Screencast 35 now glitch-free and up on YouTube

I finally got around to fixing the glitchy video by re-encoding my screencast episode 35. I also managed to upload it to YouTube although with it being over 10 minutes long, I once again had to split it up into part 1 and part 2. The workflow was still by no means painless. There are [...]
