Occasionally here at TCCa, we like to geek out on overall cool computer stuff. Today is one of those days. It’s also an opportunity for me to hail(e) a neat little application I just found.
The app is called Fluid, and it lets you wrap your favorite web application (gmail, basecamp, google reader, facebook, whatever you want) in their own contained Safari-powered space on OS X. Once wrapped, the app gets its own little nifty icon, it’s own place in the Dock, and is basically a stand alone application (great for “alt+tab”ing.)
So, instead of opening your browser and typing in “www.facebook.com”, you’d do it in Fluid (just once) and then you’d have your very own Facebook “application”…doing all the things an application (like Safari, for example) does (alt-tab capability, own icon, settings, etc). It’s sorta like a bookmark on steroids.
Oh, and if you’re still stuck on Windows, there’s a similarly functioned app called Prism that is powered by the Mozilla engine.
If you get a kick out of that kind of thing (like I do), check it out.

So we’re going to try this whole live blogging thing. Just to warn you, it’s kinda choppy, as we’re doing it well, “live.” Who knows what value you will take from it, but hey, it’s trendy so we’re going to try it.
Throughout the day, I’ll update this post with some of the stuff we’re doing/seeing/learning/sleeping through here at the BlogSavannah UnConference.
Video Blogging Session
[10:37am] Right now I’m sitting in the “vlogging” (video blogging) session with John Rife (findingjohn.com). It’s pretty cool…I’m not too up on the whole “vlogging” thing, so this should be interesting.
How to vlog?
freevlog.com - a great place to start
How do you find vlogs?
- blip.tv
- mefeddia.com
- metacafe.com
- vlogmap.com
Vlogging tools
jumpcut.com - cool online video edting site.
viddler.com - an alternative to youtube (it’s got areas to comment and link, within the context of the video)
revver.com - revenue sharing vlogging site
Companies using video
Ford models - creating unique videos with their models, posting on their sites. Excercise videos, for examples…with hot models!?!

So last Thursday we got together with about 100 of our closest friends and said thanks to our favorite pony-tailed Savannah evangelist.
It was a killer party…and, while I was hoping for a bit more “roasting” and a little less “toasting,” the evening was a memorable one and I dare say Miller enjoyed himself.
Regardless, we just wanted to thank all of you who joined us. We appreciate all of you coming to show your support and share your words. And, luckily, for those of you who didn’t make it, we took a few snaps…

I don’t know about you guys, but I love this time of year. It’s political season, which means really fun (if not emotionally charged) conversations.
First off, let me say, we here at TCCa are politically asexual. That is, we have no political affiliation. Let’s just get that out in the open. So put away your Hater-ade…we’ll have none of it. We’re not taking any stances.
That, however, does not extend to YOU. As such, I’m curious as to what our “audience’s” leaning is. I may be starting down a slippery slope, but hell…it’s the new year so let’s mix things up a bit.
So, it is with some trepidation that I ask the first of a series of politically curious questions about the affiliation of you, our loyal blog readers.
