I don’t have much time at the moment to fully read your website but I have noted it and I also subscribed for your RSS feed. I will return in a day or two. Thanks for a helpful website.

Carefully selecting your words and strategically placing them on a page to create impulsive reactions from the reader can lead to a direct sell.

I started Podcasting about a year ago and it is more exciting than blogging. I love podcasting maybe because i love music so much and radio programs when i was still a kid.

Least we not forget your Great Grandfather Ed and Great-Great Uncle Fred who were in the WWI era. When your brother, Mike, went to Gulf War I, I realized I had had a blood relative in all the major wars in the 20th Century and these men along with their fellow soldiers are the real heros of the world.

Comment on Getting over the air (OTA) digital television (DTV) in Vancouver by Noah Bloom

John, thanks for posting this. Even months later it’s so useful. Now I have direct line of site with Seymour, but am using the rabbit ears the guy in the video just chucks! Ha! I’m getting CBC, CTV, and Global (not quite as clear) in HD.

So, what is it about that specific medieval torture styled device that makes it work the best?

If I already get these channels, is there still value to building this torture ornament, ie. will I get any other channels (US) or other non-HD channels more clearly?

I take it you’re enjoying that D90! What about the shots with the fisheye at the Whip? Have you posted those?

I find (for me anyway) part of the fun of Photowalks is that I get to see how the photos turn out when watching the photogs take them! Such as the one of you bending over the fire hydrant etc!

Comment on The point when you can’t do free anymore by Cat

I love these types of blogs, but I’m eagerly awaiting the day that this attitude becomes popular in the arts world. Artists are so often ask to do things for free– play an event, create new pieces for auctions. I’m often asked to basically be a curator for free. But when I talk about artists banding together and no longer giving our skills away for “exposure” — which is a load of crap for us — I get a few hear-hears and the rest is mostly angry disagreement.

But this type of sentiment seems to be getting more and more popular in the tech/freelancing/consulting world, so I can only hope that it will become more clear that the same logic applies to artists.

I have been able to pick up the same three channels (CTV, CBC, Global) in HD in Vancouver, except I did not have to go through the trouble of building the antenna mentioned above. I just picked up a basic set of rabbit ears for $8 and it works great. So save yourself the trouble and just get the rabbit ears. =)

You should try the Nikkor 35mm f/1.8.
SUCH AN AWESOME LENS!
I have the Nikon D40. Hoping to upgrade to a D90 soon.
