I guess some explanation is in order. I've started using a thing called, "Utterz" to do some of my blogging/status updating. Utterz is a way for people to record voice messages, text messages, video and pictures and send them out to their various pages. I can create these messages sitting right here at my computer (where I am now) OR I can do it via cell phone. That's the cool part, I think. Wherever I am, I can create a blog entry with sound, video, pictures, whatever and send it to Utterz, which will put it all together and distribute it to my webpages and blogs. Cool, right? I see it as sort of a mini podcast, which I've wanted to do for a while but never have.
Anyway, I think it's cool so I put Utterz players here at JPChambers.com, on my MySpace and at WordPress. Now, with WordPress, the Utterz entries are just listed as a regular blog entry, so they are integrated. With the other sites, there is a separate Utterz player that is just sitting there all the time. Also, you -- yes YOU -- can get involved by recording or typing responses to my Utterz if you care to.
Thanks to the funniest man in the universe, Jake Johannsen, for turning me on to Utterz in the first place.
Oh, hey, Scrivener has definitely lived up to my expectations. I don't remember if I told you that yet or not. It really came in handy for the work I just finished for a large financial institution. There were lots of separate little sections to write, with two or three paragraphs each and there was a bunch of information that had to be included. Scrivener's split-screen research feature was perfect for it.
later.
