Windows Movie Maker


Posting and editing digital photos is pretty easy.

The new look at Gulf City mall in Trinidad is really nice.

But trying to get my Windows Movie Maker to work was a futile exercise!

I ended up posting three short video clips that would have been edited together if I could the pgme to work.

I even downloaded another editing pgme but that wasn't getting off the ground so...raw footage it was.

Pictures / photos and Videos

Well, I've joined Flickr and Google Videos.

They're both up...but they're not yet running.

Overseas flower deliveries




Has anyone else run into problems when trying to arrange a flower delivery from one country to another?


For my birthday, my best friend decided to send me flowers.

She lives in NY and I live in Trinidad and Tobago...so you know what happened.

By the time the flowers got to me, they were completely different to what she had ordered and the actual flowers were much cheaper than what she paid for!

However, where there's a great florist, there's a way...

I am using my florist here in Trinidad and he will cut out the floral middle men and place the order with another florist in NY! :-)

The sunflower, gerbra/gerber and delphinium should be in the celebratory bouquet I'm sending to her. :-)

Widgets

Does anyone else think widgets can be fun?

They add colour and life to a blog while letting visitors get to know you and your interests more.

Screen grabs 2

The keyboard I'm using doesn't have the button to grab screen shots, so I have improvised as best I can.

Blogger only has picture and video options, so when I tried to save the page and upload it...I got error messages.

My top 3 blogs (so far)

I decided to follow Mark's advice about the top 100 blogs and here are the 3 that appealed ot me the most...

I love trying new foods. So this blog was an obvious choice :-)

Sci Fi has always interested me. A blog by 7 sci Fi Fantasy writers? What could be better?

AND I need to know what's happening in the world. So why not the blog of a group of BBC editors on what they face in getting the news and putting it out. Their blog also lets one get a different view of the news and the people who provide us with it.
