Geotagging, a general guide

In the last couple of weeks I got back to trying something out that I’ve been trying to piece together since 2000/2001. I always thought it might be interesting to track GPS data with images taken from a webcam pointing out the windshield when on a road trip. If you’re wondering why I might think […]

UPDATE: Oh yeah, my blog. . .

I’ve been focusing more on photography again and neglecting my blog. I’ve been chasing after wildlife, and trying to get my gigs of photos at home sorted, tagged and uploaded to

When Hell Freezes Over

My tree hugging, anti video gaming wife surprised me today. When she came home and found I had brought work home, something luckily I rarely have to do these days, she fired up the 360, logged into the profile we set up for her last night when we were racing in Forza Motorsport 2 (another […]

Belated. . .

I’d make a horrible Dad. I know it. Know why? Got any clues? Well, in 2006 on 10-25 at 9:57 P.M. I posted my first article here on Brickblog. Why, I remember when this blog was still in diapers, I was excited to get 1 visit after posting oh so many articles. To date, I’m […]

Via Truck

I’ve got some great friends, some unfortunately, I’ve never met in person. It never occurred to me when one of them asked me for my address, what they may be up to. When I returned to the office today from a conference I was surprised by an odd box siting in my cube. Not one […]

Post Crazy

Lunch Break update: Sorry for the lack of updates over the last few weeks.

Now I’m not complaining, far from it. […]

Podcasting

Sorry for the dupe here, I’m testing out podPress. A whole new delivery method? Madness.

What geeks do on their free time.

A few people and I have decided that we need to be more creative in our day-to-day experiences. Hence we decided we should take the same video and audio clips and try to make videos on our own, and come back and share the outcome. This weekend I finished assignment 1. A bump inspired by […]

Parabolic Mic Pt. I

Some people call me a space cowboy, some people call me. . . Well no one even calls me Maurice. But hey, what I have been called is, turbo nerd, and geek. Tonight, I elevate it to the next level. I’ve been really into this wildlife photography stuff, if you couldn’t guess. But one thing […]
