Video: Panasonic LX3
Photos: Canon 50D
Some video and pics of lightning last night up near my mum’s place. In some of the footage you can hear the 50D shutter when I was taking pics
In the first few clips the lightning is towards the left hand side, later on it’s towards the middle. Don’t blink, you’ll probably miss it.
Larger version of the above video is here should fill most screens
Unfortunately the video suffers a bit from the whole conversion process LX3 -> iMovie -> Smugmug -> Output.
To give you an idea of the video output on the LX3, one of the original clips is here.

Here’s the ASCII art logo you get when you SSH to a Chumby.

Have been playing with some CGI scripts, to make it a more useful alarm clock

I notice recently that coments on some photos appear to be timewarping into the future. Looks weird

For those who are:

- Interested in building fail over Linux VPS solutions
- Happy to play about creating your own hosting environment
This one might be for you…
Webbynode have a coming soon Beta. According to their blurb.
…the killer new flexible Xen VPS service for developers & for people in need of better hosting.
….advanced features to create clusters between webbys, iscsi San storage, amazon ec2, and more.
Sounds like it could be something worthwhile to test, can’t wait to have a go.
