On This Day:

The first episode of The Lab With Leo Laporte first ran.

 

Kinemac: First 20 Minutes

Part of MacHeist this year was a $300 animation app, Kinemac. I sat down and played with it, and I actually got a working animation. My biggest hang-up was making sure that the camera view is at the top of the sprites window and to make a keyframe before editing the sprite. Here is a copy of the project file.

Here is the Quicktime output of it (8 whole seconds!!) (download here.)

Best Domain Message Ever!

If you don’t know, after you purchase a domain and before a site is in place there is a “parker” page which usually notifies visitors that the domain is not available and a site should be up soon–and shows ads for the registrar.  Leo Laporte (accidentally) let his twitlive.tv domain expire and after re-purchasing it, shows this message.

Oops. There may be an issue with the URL Forwarding service for this
domain, in which case our technical staff is currently working the situation. Otherwise,
this domain is currently under construction and will be back online soon.

This has to be the best message ever! I love the “otherwise” statement.
