Walking to the only job I have EVER been fired from, and I have had a job in some form since I was 12.

o shit! i almost forgot about this.

here is my freestyle ‘rap’ about the event Fired Friday
Matt in a hat walking to work 05.09.2006 003

Good news? I now work from home and make the same money. So didn’t work out too badly ;)

Also it is my birthday may 14th. I will be 33. Having a party at my house on may 17th (sat). should be fun.

DM me on twitter @zebtron if you don’t know where i live or email zebtron+33 at gmail dot com

kick ass: camera RAW format without buying a new camera


Wired has a really cool Wiki explaining how to get some great new features on a Canon camera using free custom software. It even leaves the existing firmware intact.

Biggest addition for me is the ability to shoot in camera raw format (CRW).

You will need to convert that CRW to a PNG, but that is pretty simple.

Even though the utility says it only support DIGIC II, it does work with the SD 800 IS which has a DIGIC III.

I am running a beta build on my Powershot SD800 IS.

Haven’t spent much time with it, but it is pretty cool so far.

I just love custom code on my consumer electronics!

Now I need to get RockBox running on my Sansa e250!

update: RockBox is running on my e250 and… well… rocks!

update: Here is some video I shot using CHDK’s ability to change the bitrate or quality via new menus.
