Saddam Hussein execution video (Shaaaheed_IRAQ_Sdaaam.3gp)

December 31, 2006

The Saddam Hussein execution video has made its way onto the Web and hundreds of sites have started watermarking and re-encoding the video with their own advertising and logo. After doing some digging I managed to find on alrafdean-news.net what I believe to be the original 3gp camera phone file that has been rehashed so […]

Metadata and thumbnails can out your sources

December 12, 2006

Most photojournalists have started tagging their photos with IPTC metadata to aid in copyrighting and indexing their massive collection of images. Some news organizations also require that all digital images be tagged to properly track and attribute the file during the production process. This metadata, however, can lead to some compromising moments if not properly […]

Quack to the Future

December 8, 2006

I’m on a roll. Aaron Johnson has used another one of my captions for his brilliantly outstanding What the Duck comic strip about photographers and what they deal with on a daily basis. I’m truly honored!

December 1, 2006

Aaron Johnson, esteemed author of What the Duck, used my caption for What the Duck 97 – whine rack. If you haven’t checked his Web comic out already it’s 100% comedy genius. After almost 100 episodes it hasn’t lost any of its flair and illustrates the trials and tribulations that photographers go through on a […]

  • The Angels’ Share: Single Malt and Singletrack
    Back in November an amazing video popped up in my Feedly called Angel’s Share: Exploring Scotland’s Singletrack and Single Malt. I’m a big fan of mountain biking. I’m a big fan of Scotch. And I’m a fan of Ben Howard whom I’ve heard a few times and was chosen for the soundtrack. But a couple […]

    Trunkmonkey Racing backs Mac Ride! This is insanely cool. What happens when you cross a kid named Mac and a Mountain Bike? You get Mac Ride, a Kickstarter out of Vancouver, eh!

  • When counting calories watch out for reporting loops in your Apps.
    Weight loss isn’t magic. Simply eat less calories than you burn. Easy peasy. That is unless you inadvertently sabotage yourself by getting too geeky and try to use too many nutrition and weight loss Apps to track and manage your progress. I found out the hard way that it’s best to Keep it Simple (Stupid). […]
  • Trunkmonkey Racing Ghetto Wheel Truing using Zipties
    After 10 miles of rough trail riding on the old 1992 GT Karakoram Full Rigid my slightly out-of-true wheel became a significantly out-of-true wheel with a bent spoke; it was rubbing brake pad in four locations. I guess my fat ass bombing a downhill full of fist-sized loose rocks and small boulders was a bad […]
  • Airborne Bicycles gives a sneak peak of their new Guardian 29
    It’s just a single photo, but Airborne Bicycles has posted a sneak peak photo of their new Guardian 29 on their Facebook page. Since the caption reads “A sneak-peak of one of the new models coming soon~!” there are probably more fresh designs in the pipeline! Speculation is running wild, but so far the consensus […]
  • Trunkmonkey Racing and Airborne Bicycles?
    In my search for new Mountain Bikes I ran across Airborne Bicycles, a company that has an interesting offering of value-packed bikes (follow them on Facebook and Twitter).
