TDOT Cameras come in handy on days like this

I have seen the TDOT (Tennessee Department of Transportation) cameras along the freeways of the Memphis area, but have never looked at the camera images until this morning, worrying about Katy’s commute.

Wow, lots of cameras, and you can do map mashups on road conditions and traffic flow, incidents, and construction.

If you are “snowed in” today, go to http://ww2.tdot.state.tn.us/tsw/smartmap.htm?city=Memphis and have fun watching whats happening on the highways.

You don’t have to watch this Animoto video

I just paid the $30 to upgrade Animoto .  That allows the user to include (what appears to be) an unlimited number of images included in the video. Unpaid users are limited to 8-15 images for about 30 seconds of video/slideshow.

You don’t have to watch this video. I just wanted to test the Animoto capabilities, so for this demo, I took all 182 images from our wedding and wedding party, added a long piece of jazz music, and ended up with a 9 minute slideshow.  Probably way to many images and too much movement, but just wanted to test the capabilities.

RIP Les Paul

Les Paul wasn’t just a guy with a guitar named after him. He had a distinguished career as an entertainer, inventor and innovator….
Here’s a song from the popular 1950’s Television series.

Les Paul invented the solid body electric guitar. You can’t listen to music without hearing the product of his innovation in electric guitar engineering.
The list of players of the Gibson Les Paul is a veritable who’s who of rock and popular music.
Here’s the legendary Jimmy Paige giving a Les Paul a real workout

THANKS LES, REST IN PEACE!
