@ToddDurkin Pretty cool, TD. Funny, too! You need better audio for these vids, though. A shotgun mic for the group sessions and a lav mic 4u in reply to ToddDurkin 2010-04-09
@iphoneman76 I still use Tweetie 2 on my iPhone, but on my iPad it looks either too small (1X) or too big and ugly (2X). Peace! in reply to iphoneman76 2010-04-09
@touchlesscover Looks like an interesting car cover... in reply to touchlesscover 2010-04-09
@iPhoneman76 Try Twitterific on the iPad. It's tolerable. I'm still hoping Tweetie 2 comes out though as that is my favorite on the iPhone. in reply to iphoneman76 2010-04-09
@Passiveapc Nope, just an automotive enthusiast like the rest of us. It's a hobby that some folks don't understand. Spend away :) in reply to Passiveapc 2010-04-09
@KuangEleven Thanks for pointing that out. I never saw it and I don't see any others like it. I've deleted it. Weird! in reply to KuangEleven 2010-04-09
Twitter really needs to increase the cap on API-driven apps. It makes Tweetie, Twitterific, TweetDeck, and others unusable. 2010-04-08
Holding out for Tweetie on iPad. For now, with Twitterific how do you delete a DM? 2010-04-08
@dammit_cubs Twitterific so far. But I'm holding out for Tweetie 2 for iPad. in reply to Dammit_Cubs 2010-04-08

Tripod alternatives for image stabilization

This is a very interesting video that explains several techniques for image stabilization on your still camera or camcorder. They are all very inexpensive and their effectiveness varies.

The water bottle technique would be best if you are on the go (walking) but if you’re doing stationary shots, the string technique would best. Enjoy!

Here is another DIY camera stabilization solution that is a bit more involved. It is a very inexpensive version of the Glidecam 2000, which is what we use for X7 Media for our videos using our Canon GL2 camcorder.
