One of my biggest projects has been my podcast called VooDooRadio. It’s primarily an audio only show but once in a blue moon I released a video.  When I was under Windows I used Microsoft Movie Maker to create 3 videos. Two that showed my ugly mug and one that was a video promo for a live show I was doing on uStream at the time. Now that I am under the penguin umbrella, I decided to try out making a video using tools available to me. Here’s how things went and if you want to check the video out, read on or go over to VooDooRadio.org and subscribe to the feed!

I still haven’t gone back to windows. However I found myself flip flopping between using KDE and Gnome.

I didn’t mess anything up this time under Gnome. Everything was working fine. But I decided to back up and do a clean install of Kubuntu. Everything is back up and running and nothing was really lost (except time to get everything).

So last night I loaded up some games. I love the RTS genre so I got Spring Loaded and the Evolution mod. I would really like to play the Star Wars mod but it’s closed for beta testing.

Another day of nothing much. I ripped a couple DVD’s and one of them seemed to not quite be right but I think it’s the track I chose to rip. There was like 90 tracks in the table of contents and a bunch of them seemed it could be the right one. *sigh*

However the other one was correct and things went fine. More movie backups made. Go me.

I updated to a new version of Firefox that the name escapes me as I write this, but it’s a ubuntu based fork of 3.5 that seems to work fine. I also imported all my old bookmarks that I exported when I was under windows.

Also I found the Ubuntu Vidcast site. But the thing doesn’t play on my iPod because it’s in Ogg Vorbis. Dernit! And the video link for the ipod is a iTunes link. GAH!

Nothing really new to report. I basically worked on customizing my laptop externally this time.

I added some stickers to the inside area where you usually have your Intel Inside and Windows stickers. I also HAD to add a VooDooRadio related sticker onto my machine so that is on here as well.

I also added a tux sticker to cover up the Acer logo on the front of the machine.

Basically I found the images I wanted, printed them out on the color laser we have at work and one of my co-workers added the adhesive and also laminated one side for me. Read on to see the images that I Have on here now.
