WordPress Wednesday – FAlbum

If you use photos at Facebook – you have to have FAlbum.  It allows you to upload pics to facebook and then port them over to your blog.  It works good and looks cool too.

Now why the heck do I have a flickr pro account?

It all started with a tweet from a guy in Utah.  He said he had cracked up be cause his mother had emailed him after watch his lawn cam – capturing some landscaping.

Anyway – his blog post was a bout the concept of video stitching:

I saw this amazing Stabilized Video Collage this morning while reading … this is really impressive.  You have to see it to really appreciate what is being done.

Link to Flickr video – thanks for the help Wordpress.

The author has used a program called Motion (in FinalCut on the Mac) to stitch two videos together to make one.  Not only is it obscenely cool, it makes the video enjoyable to watch.  It appears you can stitch video from many different sources and multiple camera together to build a killer panoramic vid.

Very cool.

This is just fun

I found this link a while back but more or less forgot about it – then it bubbled to the top again…it is called retrievr.

The first thing to notice is the lack of “e” at the end of the name — this is something flickr started, so if you see this, it usually has something to do with flickr. (For a while people thought it was cool and it was a web 2.0 thing…but that has pretty much stopped)

So the white box on the left is a place where you doodle and then you click submit and it matches the color and the lines you drew.

This is all done with pictures and it doees a fairly good job – now think about 2 years down the road when you can submit a picture to match and it can come back with video clips…hmmmmm.
