Ok, ok, I am bending to the will of the people!  I have this post with pictures of my tattoo and a bunch of people seem to want it.  I thought about it long and hard and have decided to give away the picture for anyone who wants it.  There is a string attached though.  If you use this picture in any way, you MUST take a picture of it and post it in the comments (use Flickr or something).  I want to see how this thing is used.

FTA Satellite Install – UNCUT and UNCENSORED!!!

Posted in NASA on May 20th, 2008 by Bencredible – 2 Comments

This is basically the full 7 hour install of the two FTA satellite dishes we put in for SpaceVidcast.com.  There was a bit of a connection issue so it got broken in to two sections.  Might be best to skip through them a bit to see the progress. Enjoy!



Live on Twin Cities… uh… Live

Posted in Twin Cities Live on May 6th, 2008 by Bencredible – 2 Comments

Your truly is slated to be live on Twin Cities Live this Wednesday, May 7th between 3:00pm CDT and 4:00pm CDT.  Check out KSTP channel 5 in the Minneapolis, MN area to see the live show, or go to http://www.twincitieslive.com the day after the show to catch the video segment.

I’ll be talking about low cost videophones (AKA Skype) and how you can use that in interesting ways such as a baby monitor (or babysitter monitor), home security system or low cost telephone replacement.

Make sure to check it out live!  Of course I’m not in the TCL promo, but that’s probably because they don’t know how awesome I really am… yet…

UPDATE: I have written a technical analysis of Skype on Technology Evangelist before the TCL show.  I won’t be getting even nearly that techie on the show, but I wanted my uber geek friends to have something to do too.

UPDATE 2: Here is the Twin Cities Live segment as it aired on KSTP, Channel 5
