also: having used the new macbook pro for just a little bit, my late-07 imac seems much slower and weaker now XD
also: also: image is of where I pretty much live XD

Just because I've started trying to learn to draw lately, I figure I may as well get something for my ipod that I can use to draw stuffs. While by the time any of you actually see this entry I'll probably have already bought the application I figure that it'll help me to decide by doing up the pros and cons all right here XD
First app is Brushes. I tried this app out and I don't like that it smoothes out lines because rarely is it that it adjusts them to how I actually want them (never seen a muzzle that bows outward o.O), but it does have one thing going for it - the viewer. Basically it takes whatever you draw and supersizes it, so for high-res it might be good for the really skilled ipod artist. That's not me however so really it's between the next two XD
iDoodle2. Based on the free version, this is a pretty good app, the user interface is incredibly simple and I honestly don't think you could fuck something up beyond restoration. The fact the icons, when on screen, are large is a very good thing because on a small screen it's nice to be able to know I'm hitting the tools rather than the line button. No viewer but otherwise a simple, yet effective app. Only supports one at a time and I've yet to find a way to include layers so far though
Autodesk Sketchbook. This so far looks like the best one, now that I've actually figured out the interface. Cons first - the interface is confuzzling as hell, with a little nearly-invisible button to bring up the menu. Nice to have it out of the way though. There's a limit to the tools you have, as is expected, and resizing/changing opacity is kinda awkward sometimes because I've tried to adjust one but it's changed the other instead. Pros however are again that the menu is out of the way, it doesn't fix lines you draw and when zooming in, it actually tells you how zoomed in you are with no apparent upper limit that I've so far been bothered to try and find (1500% is close enough for me XD)
all of these have the issue of low resolutions except for Brushes, other than that though...I must decide. Leaning toward sketchbook however because it looks a little bit more professional and has some nice little features and a much-appreciated tutorial XD
For those of you who've known me since 2006, you'd know that my fursona used to be a red fox by the name of Sabre Vulpine. My email, msn, yim, aim, skype, DA and my old FA all made this at least somewhat clear back then. Sabre was originally just a character that I slowly started to treat more as myself than a character, hence becoming my fursona. I chose to have a fox fursona for reasons unknown, but there was always a love of dingos there too.
Around a year later, in about mid 07 or so, I searched wikifur for hard-copy printed anthropomorphic or furry media, such as novels or magazines. It was around this time I found out about Chakat Goldfur and 3 years later I bought all four of his novels and two a4-print books (and have almost finished all the novels, but that's a tale for another time XD), I also found out about the australian furry magazine South Fur Lands around this time, and the wikifur article shows the cover of one with a female canine throwing a boomerang, and even for dimmer thickies out there it was pretty obvious that it was a dingo that adorned the cover of this particular issue. The seeds had been planted, and that day I began to reconsider my choice of fursona, partly because this graphic made me think that maybe dingos are a more intriguing species than foxes, are -far- less common in the fandom, are much more awesome, and I'd be lying if I said I wasn't at least somewhat influenced by the actual image itself, being that I was 15 at the time XD
It occurred to me however that a dingo named Sabre Vulpine wasn't really that appropriate. I was determined to keep my first name of Sabre, simply because by this point I was already starting to respond to it as if it were my own name, and it was not really the issue anyway. The problem at this point was the confusion of species for others - a dingo named vulpine. I decided long before this to join SecondLife, where I had chosen the name of Sabre McCullough back when I was a fox, as Vulpine or anything fox-like was disappointingly absent from the lists of names to go with my choice of first name. I decided that I liked the name, it's slightly similar to my own and it makes no mention of any particular species; and why not keep things consistent as well. So I took the name as my own within the fandom, after only a little more than a year as a fox.
As a dingo, I still used most of my old IM names, even to this day I still do. The first to change was my msn, from sabrevulpine to sabremcc, which is where I knew people the most anyway, and I still use both. More recently I created a new skype at sabre.mccullough and a new gmail account because I was sick of spam. With the new email and skype accounts, however, it seems that the dingo has finally replaced the fox entirely. I say this because it now seems rather unusual and almost like a lie when I type my old gmail account in an email field. I'm uncertain what actually completed the shift which took place in a day but in other, smaller ways took place over about two and a half years, but it's happened and I find it strange yet awesome XD
June 28 marks the end of my 4th year in the furry fandom. I must do something to celebrate this day or something...perhaps a little sketch with a birthday cake and a 4, even though Sabre is in fact 18 (being me and all XD)
http://wefollow.com/twitter/furry
go there and you'll see what amazes me. I'm #55 on thtat list for most followers but the page of interest is "Most Influential" on which I am #7
holy amazing shit, unless that's based on the number of people that -I- follow, which is a lot, how did I manage to get to #7 right after Zaush and Bucktown o.O
also: please excuse me while I rage over class recordings lost to a kernel panic about an hour ago while I was attempting to click save for the first of them...
*clears throat*
...
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK
with that out the way, anyone know how to recover files that weren't saved before an OS X kernel panic, files that were recorded with Sound Studio?
On LJ, I sometimes come across as a bit of an asshole, in person I like to think I'm a pretty nice guy, laid back, relaxed, funny (I hope...) and most definitely furry XD LJ is just where I post stuff that I go on a ramble with, I don't let it bother me so much really XD
Something else you should know, I'm not easily offended. In fact, it's incredibly difficult to offend me. If you find me confusing, tell me, if I scare you for whatever reason, tell me outright, not through someone else. I assure you, I won't be offended. I'll be curious and if I consider you a friend and I scare you then I might be sad, but I'm not going to be offended. I'll probably respect you a lot more for being honest with me.
I -will- be offended if you feel the need to go through someone else to tell me something or if you don't feel like you can say something for fear of offending me, because that makes me feel as though YOU feel like you can't be honest with me.
Honesty is really an important thing in general, and is quite important to me. I try to be able to admit when I'm wrong, if you can do the same then you get much respect from me for that (this means you KayEff, you admitted what you admitted, I respect you a lot more for it XD).
So really people, just tell me your opinion of me, because if you don't then I'll just assume you don't hate me, aren't scared of me and can at least halfway understand what I mean.
before anyone else jumps in, I'd just like to say this
he's not bad
he's not the 3rd, 4th or 7th doctors but for one episode he's not that bad so far XD
wait a few episodes before you decide whether he's a good one or not XD
for FurDU must be posted about! You must know about this convention on the gold coast in Queensland, Australia
http://furrydownunder.com
GO THERE! IT'LL BE AWESOME =D
http://wefollow.com/twitter/furry
...how the hell did I manage to reach #9 for most influential on that list? XD
I mean, srsly, how did -I- get into the top ten most influential on that list thar o.o XD
also: FurDU will be awesome, any ozzie furs who read this, go register if you haven't already
http://furrydownunder.com
then go to http://rivfur.org and register there for events too, also gonna be awesome
on a completely different note, there appears to be something spreading through the interjets - discussions of Oblivion pop up on 4chan moar, I thought recently that maybe I'd get it on steam, before seeing these threads, and I used to think that it'd be incredibly uninteresting.
What should I buys first - Morrowind & Oblivion, or Fallout 3? XD
Michael Atkinson stepped down as attourney general in South Australia yesterday. AWESOME =D
for those unaware, Matkinson was the only AG against an R18+ rating for games here in australia, and we need an unanimous vote from all AGs here to get that rating. With Matkinson gone, we now might have a chance.
Two awesome things happening in two days, maybe tomorrow Conroy will finally see that he is a fucking dumbass and quit politics altogether
but we all know that won't happen XD
I've written waaay too many essays and shit about this for school so I'll try to keep this a bit short XD
DRM. I hate it yet at the same time I don't always hate it. DRM, no matter the case, IS necessary. It's also going to be there regardless - CD's = drm because you need a device to read them, XBox Live is in a way DRM because it will kill you for modchipping your 360, which you kinda agreed to when you registered your account, Valve can VAC ban you if you cheat on steam and can disable your account if you use it in a third party client to play pirated games.
All these forms are necessary to some degree, I won't deny this. What I hate however, is intrusive DRM systems.
SecuROM for example, fucks with computers, google it. Assassin's Creed 2 requires a persistent internet connection to play, if your internet drops then the game is going to stop till the internet is back. Let's consider that Australia is absolutely shit for internet, yeah, gonna go really well, and what if I want to play this $60 game (americans, don't fucking complain, sixty dollars is HALF THE PRICE WE PAY FOR NEW RELEASES HERE, you're getting a good deal compared to our 80-120 dollar releases m'kay, so don't complain about it. Thanks muchly) when I'm offline, like when I'm at the coast with no landline and the internet is shitty and horrendously limited wireless that's about as stable sometimes as an epileptic human pyramid? I paid for a game, do I not purchase the right to play that game? What happened to the purchasing the right to play it at my discretion, as opposed to the discretion of the developer?
shit, even Steam lets me play games offline.
So yeah I hate this persistent connection DRM. Arkham Asylum had good drm, it's restrictive but it's actually good. Why is it good? because you can play the game, but if the game is not a legit copy, then it disables jumping from one specific level and from there on, you can't continue because you can't jump. It treats pirates like criminals and legit buyers are actually pretty much unaffected, barring false positives (always keep your receipt >.>). You know what? I think that's actually pretty cool, even though the game itself interests me minimally
also: I've decided to tell my twitter accounts here
@SabreMc for my twitter
@SabreSays for the podcast one XD
also: also: getting back into the hypnosis thing, gonna try that again and yous should get this song off itunes, is good XD
Thanks Sara for the arts that is now my avatar XD
first up, that bit of the Dr Who theme where it strays from the usual repeated part to the bridge thing, that always sends a shiver down my spine with the awesome, love it XD
now, last entry I mentioned something about hypnosis and making myself see myself actually -as- my fursona, but well there's been times when that's the case anyways.
Picture yourself as your fursona, if you've got one. Now, hold onto that image and be aware for a moment of your hands, of your face, of the top of your head, and so on. Now, forget all of it, tell yourself that they look different to the same parts of your fursona, they are not your hands, that is not your face, etc.
now go into a room that's as dark as you can get it. If you can actually -see- your hand in front of your face at about maybe 15-30 centimetres (6-12 inches) then you need to reduce the light, it works best when it's black enough that you can't see your hand at all except for just 'seeing' where you know it is, an interesting thing to just note.
Now, try to feel the shape of your paws with your mind, with your fursona still in mind, do you feel pawpads? complete paws? your normal, human hands? It won't always happen, this I know, but if it works for your hands/paws, try to repeat this for your face, create a muzzle, then footpaws (unless you're in shoes, might not work with shoes on) then think also on how it must feel to be covered in fur, let this feeling flow over your body. Feels good man XD Also seems easier than hypnosis because you're not trying to contest something you can actually -see- but that you more are aware of. I can't personally maintain this state of furriness for long after increasing light levels (though sometimes it lingers for a little bit, never more than about 10 minutes or till I stop focussing on it)
This I guess is sorta a self-hypnosis thing in a way, but I've never been able to replicate it when I can see myself, only when I can't see anything to snap me back to perceived reality. Never had a tail from this though, that only happened once while listening to a song that I'll find and lonk later on. If this works for you though, please tell me so I can verify that it actually can work for people XD
So, yeah, university is pretty awesome I guess, the travel is shit though but the internet speed here kicks several kinds of arse XD
I've noticed my behaviour is quite similar to the Engineer of TF2 when between classes, mostly I find a spot to set up my laptop and have my food sitting right next to me to snack on throughout the hours, 'tis rare that I leave my chosen spot except in the cases of needing to piss or to actually go somewhere.
Haven't encountered any furs yet but hey, who knows XD also I spilt coke on my laptop the other day...still works perfectly and the area that it got spilt on is now the cleanest part of the laptop and heats up less than anywhere else on it o.o
with university out of the way, on to insanity XD..
So, am I insane? I mean genuinely lacking in something that is considered normalcy or sanity. Sometimes I wonder...
I'm a furry, nothing unusual there, I tend to latch onto things a bit sometimes (well...if a lamprey eel latches on just a bit anyways...yeah) and furry is a fun thing that I latched onto that became a pretty big part of who I am - Sabre and Mitchell started entirely separate with Sabre being just a name, then a thought, then a character. Now though I sometimes have trouble drawing a distinction between the two. Then the question arises, 'who am I really?' Am I Sabre, or Mitchell? Is there a difference between the two at all, What of the others who never made it to the point of integrating with my 'self,' Mike and Kathy? What of all those who existed in my mind for a time and then seemingly vanished? Did I make them vanish, or did they do it on their own? With Mitchell and Sabre, is it that I am one or the other? Or is it that I want to be a particular one of the two, do I even have a choice?
I like to believe the last question can be answered with 'yes.' Can't be certain about any of the others though...but there's no fight going on between personalities, I am me, whoever me happens to be, with Mike and Kathy only really appearing when I welcome them to do so, don't worry I'm not completely lost XD
My apparent fascination with forcing mindfuck upon myself can't possibly help this. Creepypasta, written well, can have a genuine, if only temporary effect on me, whether freaking me out (fun ones) or that spark just a tiny thought that won't go away till I pay it some attention and figure out wtf it's about, like Candle Cove (could such a thing happen? does it happen? is it happening to me without my realising it even?).
Hypnosis, this is something that really intrigues me, because I believe that the mind, if trained, can pretty much do whatever the fuck it wants. Your perception is your reality and all that fun stuff. Not that it can physically change you in the perception of others, but when a phantom tail forms on my spine, to me that tail is real. I acknowledge also that hypnosis can be dangerous if one messes with it too much, which lead me to ask some of my closest friends to get me the fuck away from it if I start getting remotely near where it may be dangerous. I've decided though to rewrite some files from WMM and FM and record them for myself, make myself feel physically like my fursona (interesting story about that actually >.>) and to relive the sensation of a tail and make it something of a permanent fixture to my spine. Might clear things up, might not, we'll see.
So, you guys thing I might actually be slipping into genuine insanity? Or am I just going through a 'normal' series of thoughts.
Whatever 'normal' is XD I wouldn't know, never been there XD
so talking with someone on msn today made me remember a song so I looked it up on youtube...it's not the best quality but it's the best version, so go click this link now and listen to the song, don't bother with other songs sharing the name though. Don't worry, I can wait, come back to this AFTER you listen to the song, it's much better than my livejournal is XD
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-x_5N-BB-wA
if you know of this movie but you've seen the american version, then I feel sorry for you...go to your local video store and check the children's section, rent this movie (if it's for sale, just fucking buy it though) and if you send me a good recorded copy of that and the first song (listening to it now) then I will be so thankful to ya...
only if it's the australian version though, sorry, but the 'english' (read: ...american...THE FILM IS AUSTRALIAN AMERICAN VOICES HAVE NO PLACE IN IT ;.; ) version sounds pretty awful by comparison, it'd be like if they changed voice actors for Thomas the Tank Engine...
oh wait... -.-
Ringo Starr was the only good narrator that show had XD
but yeah I've been on quite the nostalgia trip tonight XD Silver Brumby animated series, Animals of Farthing Wood, Napoleon, The Trap Door (still awesome =D), the original series of Brum, some old Postman Pat and Fireman Sam and Joshua Jones episodes, Genie from Down Under, ooold Blinky Bill episodes, Budgie the Little Helicopter, Raggydolls, Spot and of all things...Ferry Boat Fred
a fine assortment of Australian and British tv
really guys, whoever you are, wherever you're from, whether you're furry or not, I task you with finding at least one of the aforementioned that you have not seen before, find as much as you can of it, and watch it. Just do it XD
Imma go nostalgia moar nao XD
so I just brought out the medion laptop again, the one with a busted screen, and now I feel awesome for being surrounded by 3 computers with potentially room for a fourth (2005 toshiba satellite) which would also balance out the mac/windows thing XD right now my new mbp and my aging imac can access all files I have except those on mum's laptop >.> gonna fix that tomorrow XD (linux it is)
also: having used the new macbook pro for just a little bit, my late-07 imac seems much slower and weaker now XD
also: also: image is of where I pretty much live XD
first, I blame the song I'm listening to right now actually. Really, listen to at least the Superconductor and the Piano Strings edition of the album by Jasen Tamiia, if nothing else (though I haven't bought anything else by him...might be better stuff I dunno o.o).
Anyways, like the old Close Your Eyes dream mix I've got somewhere, this song prompted images of my fursona in my head, first time I've actually seen myself really what he looks like to be honest o.o (yes, I'm odd but until this I'd never really seen what Sabre McCullough looked like to my mind, only what others could gather from my exceptionally basic descriptions XD) so I've decided to attempt to draw him/me and do it well, over several weeks or months if necessary but I'm going to be making this the best possible artwork I can produce XD
why am I saying this?
why the bloody hell not XD
also: there MIGHT be a little mini-podcast hosted on my old youtube account because I feel like it XD might consider using talkshoe if my ipod cooperates well enough o.o
oh yes, finally got that newest artwork of my fursona uploaded, actually incredibly similar to how I ended up picturing him recently o.o
ahhh nothing quite like a brand freakin new macbook XD
I are excited, my new 17\" macbook pro arrives TOMORROW =D XD to go along with my new ipod touch (32gb <3 ) and new musics and shit I just bought...and an apple magic mouse and shiny silver apple remote o.o
why yes, yes I do like apple stuff unless it's the iPad which I feel is too underpowered to substitute for a netbook (if I can't watch the escapist on an ipod, that's one thing, if I've got a 10 inch screen on a device such as that though, then I have to pass on it >.>) and quite clearly too large for my pocket XD
announced the day after my ipod arrived it was too, so maybe I'm a little bitter about it but...still it's too large for my pocket XD
Also, I just now got a free recording application for my ipod (which yes it did include those headphones with a mic on them), and am considering buying a better one...o.o what could this mean o.o ?
wait about and watch this space (and my twitter >.> @SabreMc) and you'll see once I know what it could mean myself XD
I fail at having a blag it seems XD my homepage over at dingonet.org is collecting dust because I haven't even spared it a glance in the last little while and I can't really make myself give a shit about updating it right now...this irritates me because it's gonna go nowhere till I can motivate my increasingly fat ass to actually do something with the site and other places on it (like sfd, which you should go to at dingonet.org/smf and halp revive it plox? XD).
A few good things though, I'm still moving ahead with yeefcast, got a domain decided on and if I wake up to find any of you has bought the rather obvious domain, then beware the dingo that has a cookie in his gob XD any sounds you guys can think of for the soundboard too please
a place on fraiser island has been closed to campers to stop dingos killing them, meaning dingos don't get killed for defending their territory. This puts much happy on my face it does, because surely you guys know by now that...well, I like dingos XD
I bought a gift for my mate at last, a dingo plush toy from the -only- shop I could find in the Brisbane CBD that sells plush dingos o.o this I'll be sending off after getting some photos of course which can be released after she has it *nods* gonna have to make some avatars with it methinks
which reminds me I got a new avatar drawn by a friend of my mate =D it's the one you see on this post *nods* XD if ever I convince my mate to get a livejournal or FA account then she'll be getting the other half so we can has win with avatars that fit together XD
I got a lot...a -lot- of games recently XD I bought the THQ pack over halloween and I bought L4D2 (from new zealand, glad you asked XD) as well as Screed and Bioshock and the Prince of Persia sands of time trilogy (hardly through the first so no I haven't downloaded all of them yet XD) so I'd like to tell you a bit about Saints Row 2 from the THQ pack briefly...
it's awesome. I'm late to the party, yes, but still, it's an awesome game and you will like it, there are a couple of little framerate glitches in it and the occasional clipping issues (and such insignificant things as cars/people appearing and disappearing while you can see them XD). So yes, get it, don't listen to the whiney little shits on the steam forums (now...why would anyone be so daft anyways? XD) and get it then add me on steam and you will be happy.
Oh yes I also got X3: Gold Edition while it was 15 bucks because I'm not paying 50 for it XD
quick note to makenshi: I told you Osmos was a good game XD so you've a second opinion if you wanted one, so go get osmos. No, really, go get it now, you will be happy XD
also...last but certainly not least, JP SylvrWolfe, in the very unlikely case that you're reading this, I'd very much like to thank you and the FFF team for inspiring me to get yeefcast going when it eventually happens...you guys and the ACTFur/TuSPod team are much of the reason I'm still trying XD and really, anyone that hasn't listened to FFF and you're still reading, go listen to it, there's a link to the archives from their site which is freaky_furry_friends.podomatic.com because really it's a goodly podcast XD
I logged onto steam yesterday arvo and found, for two dollars, a game called Osmos. Osmos is a casual game where you play what appears to be a little amoeba thing, and you must swim around and absorb amoebas smaller than you without being absorbed by larger amoebas. Beyond that..well to move you propel bits of yourself out behind you and shrink as a result of this, so you can't just float around absorbing everything. The goals are simple enough - \"Become the biggest\" \"Become HUGE\" and \"absorb the suchandsuch\" but some levels are incredibly challenging and require a lot of thought.
I'm not saying the game is perfect, however. The music fits with the system, but the game is pretty much like a combination of several flash games bundled up to look pretty, but hey it's two bucks right now so you'd be off in the head to pass that up XD
also you can only sit for so long nomming smaller you's and avoiding bigger you's but it's a good timewaster regardless XD
my install of windows vista, which is all there on the drive I might add, has decided it doesn't exist. I am now in possession shrödinger's laptop in a quantum state of fucked and not fucked until further notice DX
XD got chkdsk running from the cd, recovered the important stuff so...wish me luck? ty XD
...on halloween I decided to browse furaffinity for some wallpapers. I found one, also found a lot of art.
too much apparently XD having 5 gigabytes of furry arts I thought I'd kinda found a bit of it >.> but halloween has left me with about maybe 100+ artists to start watching and download arts from o.o so thank/damn all of you for being so good at arts XD also...every artist tab I close after watching I close it having found two or three new ones in their favourites that you can view on the page >.> so many arts o.o; ...I need that FA extension for firefox back XD
also: it's waaaay too hot right now even for me XD AND if you think furry drama is huge...just wait for the next hat to come out on TF2 that isn't a drop, or wait for a major update. I assure you it will result in more drama than probably even the chewfox fiasco (which you can probably guess my opinion on or did I already talk about it o.o ? XD)
^ this
also I want to rant about l4d 2 but the ranting has all been done, instead I shall call out just how shit the australian version is. I saw a trailer that I've no real desire to find of the australian version...wait no a gameplay video. You shoot, they wobble a bit then flop to the ground and vanish almost instantly. Crowbars and those huge butcher knife things do pretty much the same, no riot police, clowns, any of that ever appear.
the gameplay videos of the 'real' version are of course much better. Splatter, lots of it, tearing off limbs with a crowbar, love it, an actual hoard rather than as many zombies as I could pull into a group hug before one of them decided to be unreasonable and...well...eat my eyes o.o this is a zombie game.
basically australia gets an absolutely pussified version.
I cannot really think of anything else to put here...
oh yes, halloween has somehow really taken off this year around brisbane o.o no idea what actually happened but even those rock-hard pumpkins that are Queensland Blue pumpkins sold out today o.o
happy halloween peoples XD
I made happy song =D
moar infos over here at http://dingonet.org/2009/new-demo-early-stages-still/ XD
Anyone that knows I used to host a podcast (won't link it, it's dead now), you might well know by now that it's thoroughly dead, and I can tell you that there is to be no doubt in your mind that there will never be another episode of the Pawfect World Podcast, the pawfectly unprofessional podcast with glitches, dead air and shit organisation.
Ah but do not dispair my fuzzy compatriots, all is not lost! A new podcast is slowly in the works, with hosting at PodOMatic coming after the first episode is recorded (because I just love podomatic - great setup, good publicity, in general it's a nice setup for even the free users) and a new name that shan't yet be revealed publically XD
There will be a soundboard, some taken from the podcast I'm actually listening to, some from those talking emoticons in those old ads (which used to annoy the piss out of me but now I'm actually starting to miss those little fuckers), the sound that inspired the name and many sounds from Homestarrunner.com (thanks guys, even if it is public domain, thanks guys XD)
There will be less news, because I'm no news anchor and I know that now. Instead the podcast will be just stuffing around with friends (and I'm hoping at least one listener of PWC will become a regular cohost, perhaps more than one even if KF remains on his hiatus o.o). Some serious discussions will also be in there with talk of things like the Black Faces and Red Faces that's spread around the internet, which I -won't- talk about here because it's more horseshit than I really want to step in. Emails of all sorts once they start coming in and any segments or shoutouts people want to send in (believe me, I know you're probably nervous and a little worried that it won't be played on a show, I've been there, but if you send it, I'll put it on the air XD)
also we will have a logo and our own lj group (if you find it, you get a cookie for finding the podcast name as well XD) and I'll be making an LJ profile specifically to operate in the group and on its own, and a twitter for it. My intention with these? Well I plan to have the PodO'Matic and the Lj operating side-by-side, the Lj operating as a simple blog and a source of information and any updates, the PodO'Matic only for posting the podcast and shownotes, and comments. Yeefer will be taking content through both that and through his Lj. The twitter will be for notifying of updates as they happen mostly XD
So...perhaps I'll see you guys on skype (making one under the name Yeefer as well guys, he'll be hosting the podcast but if you add him then expect one from my normal skype - Sabre_the_fox because yeefer will be mostly a podcasting account XD)
oh yes, we'll also have our own IRC chanel, I'll idle in it when I get AROS back up and running again, but I can't talk while I'm either gone from the computer (work, school, faffing about) or podcasting. I just cannot talk while I'm typing, nor can I type while I'm talking - my brain backflips in my skull and tries to eat itself (interesting experience mind, but a little irritating when everything stops when you try it XD). Moar updates to come on this when the release approaches.
to the coast I shall take, armed with a new copy of iPod Peggle, Season 1 of the Freaky Furry Friends podcast and the Middle Cyclone album by Neko Case. I'll be back in 3 days XD
also, if you have the money and the opportunity to buy Middle Cyclone, and you don't, consider this a recommendation: get it or else the dingo will eat your baby...or steal your pants if you're a girl...or perhaps both (if you're a girl anyways XD)? so yeah, get it, in fact get it off iTunes because you get a video and a HUEG track with it XD
it's good enough that I got it even though my speed matches that of dialup. Yes. It's that good. Get it by the time I get back people. XD
oh yes, I've switched my link and cell colours around for something a little different. I like it myself but if you can't see the text so well, bitch about it enough and I might swap em back XD
