Waiting at a Baltimore stoplight

Pic of the day

I used to scoff at the idea of ordering from a joint, then waiting for
someone to bring the takeout bags to my car.

Until I had a baby. Now I find it a blessing. Sitting in my car
waiting for dinner to be delivered now, while baby naps in the back seat.

Northwood plaza, NE Baltimore

Biz as usual at Northwood plaza on a Monday night. Former councilman
Ken Harris was killed here in September. Since then, security has
apparently improved. (Pic taken with my iPhone)

A Lot of News

A lot's happened since my last post. I've done a slew of videos, which I haven't had a chance to post here yet. More importantly, though, I've delved deep into the world of online social media, especially with Twitter.

I'm experimenting with "widgetizing" Twitter feeds, so bear with me. The widget below comes from yourminis.com. I'm interesting in the idea that I daydreamed today of pulling Twitter conversations directly into blog posts. So readers can jump right in to an ongoing discussion or commentary about an event. Seeing a discussion unfolding before them, I think, will encourage readers to participate in it. So, check out this widget:

Wow. That was pretty damn simple. Go yourminis.com!

Here's another version of the same widget:

My Morning Commute

Made this fun little video by strapping my camera onto my passenger seat with a Gorilla pod, then in post-production, adding some effects. Check it out.
