This sucker has been in my Amazon.com wish list for 2.5 years and Wonderwife surprised me with it this weekend when I got home! I can’t wait to pull out my old records, rip them to my PC’s media center using Audacity software and then download them to my iPod.
Ahh yes, as if I didn’t have enough toys to play with, she had to go ahead and help out Audio Mojo!
Last year I had the chance to attend the inaugural Moss Rock Festival in Hoover, Alabama just outside Birmingham and what a fantastic event. The Fall weather was perfect and here were tons to do, explore and see. I took more than a few photos as usual and posted them on Flickr. They were discovered by the organizers last year and they asked if they could use them for marketing & promotional purposes. I agreed.
It is that time of the year again and the festival is this weekend (check out the Upcoming widget on the right sidebar —->) Wonderwife was feeding the baby and watching Oprah this afternoon and saw a commercial for the Moss Rock Festival with a scrolling photo bar on the bottom with my work!
I’ve been in television, magazines and radio before but this is the first time my photos have been featured on television so it was a small thrill.
Who came up with the "18-34 demographic"? What happens when you turn 35? Are you no longer cool or marketable to? Does that mean all the advertising crap clears up from your life?
I turn 35 in December.

On Sunday, the Denbows decided to enjoy the nice weather and take a stroll on the Vulcan Trail. We brought the camera, of course and snapped a few pics off using the fisheye lens attachment. The daughter was asleep through the whole thing. She’ll get used to the daddy paparazzi and the hiking, for sure!
Sunday night found her awake and fussy until I cranked up BB King’s “Paying The Cost To Be The Boss” and Stevie Ray Vaughn’s “Pride & Joy”.
She is like her father in so many ways, including loving the Blues because she was asleep almost instantly.
Reading- Girls- An Owner’s Manual
Watching- Heroes and The Office. Excellent shows while waiting for Lost and Battlestar Galactica to come back on.
Listening- to Led Zeppelin box set on the iPod
Doing- working on photos with my baby girl around my neck
Eating- breakfasty things like eggs, bacon and hash browns…mmmm
Thanks for the post suggestion that was shamelessly stolen from Kristen at This Classical Life!
Congratulations to Leah Tucker and the Alabama Jazz Hall of Fame for putting on a fantastic all-day jazz festival this weekend. Saturday’s crowds beat the heat with good food and great music. There was easily 5,000 people on one street at any given time which is impressive since the Sidewalk Moving Picture festival was going on at the same time. I was asked to shoot the event and was able to get some great portraits and stage shots of the artists who were more than happy to have their pictures snapped.

For a few years now, I have ingested ginormous amounts of content from the internet through RSS feeds I have subscribed to over 300 website’s RSS feeds. This prevents me from visiting each website individually and aggregates them into my feed reader of choice, which is currently Feed Demon. In the past I have tried most readers and really liked Bloglines and Google Reader. Feed Demon is paid desktop software while the other 2 are free web-based apps. But it is your choice in how you want to be served!
So what do I do with all 300 websites that generate on average 3 posts a day each? How does anyone assimilate and digest that much mental food? Let me clarify here: I don’t read ALL of them. In fact, I scan over a few posts to find anything of interest. When I do find something relevant and noteworthy, I’ll read it and use it. If I can’t use it then, I will flag or save that post for future reference. Think of it as a bookmark to go back to when you have the time or pass on the second helping, thanks.
Also, when flagging for future use, I will highlight a link and tag & save it to my Delicious bookmarks, again, insuring that I will see it and use it.
So when picking through the buffet of web content I chose the finest morsels, feeds that will enrich me and make my world more productive and fun. According to Feed Demon, my top ten feeds I pay attention to (this week) are:
1. Lifehacker
2. Mashable
4. Boing Boing
5. Webware.com
6. TechCrunch
8. The Terminal
10. Read/Write Web
If I want to see what is going on in the internets, I can view all of the aggregated Popular Topics from the past 48 hours (as of 9/26) according to all of my feeds.
1. MySpace launches free mobile service
2. Sketchcast blogging tool
3. WordPress 2.3 released
4. Diigo social annotation tool
5. Microsoft plans to invest in Facebook
6. One Laptop Per Child
When feeds include audio or video podcasts, you can bet that they are either consumed on my desktop or transferred to my iPod so I can feed while on the go. Get your brain fed while you work out or commute to work!
That is one of the arguments for RSS feeds: Your news brought to you and consumed by you in the manner and times of your choosing.
