| Dipping the proverbial cybertoe.....

Hello. If you are reading this then you have either clicked the wrong link, or made a reaffirming change in your life in finding me.
Actually, that's pretty far from true, none the less here I be, finally catching up with the way of the web obsessed world writing a blog on some previously unknown site (to me anyways). Sure, blogging and vlogging have been about almost as long as flogging, but to be honest, I have often taken little interest in it.
WHY?
Well, I suppose when I first tried it out I read a few blogs out there but gosh darn it, they were all just so.....whats the word now.....pissy!
Yup, in a cyberdomain where most users have difficulty writing full sentances one another, the appeal of authoring and sharing your own cognitive relapses seemed to be reserved only to teenagers who (like everyone of us who have had to experience puberty) hate thier parents/life/car/teachers/waistline and quite frankly BORE the rest of us with their apparantly miserable existence.
Alright, alright, perhaps a little on the harsh side, especially when saying such things whilst apparantly behind enemy lines, but if I am going to make it clear why I am trying this out NOW rather than five years ago, I might as well be honest.
Another reason, of course, is because I generally don't do too much talking about my life in the REAL world, much less feel any particular temptation to do so virally. I'm generally a social kinda guy, I like telling stories, hearing other peoples voices and actually witnessing their expressions and reactions to my interactions with them.
In any case, I hope to cover a little more of what I fancy chatting on about on here, no doubt I will take some time aside from my studies, part-time work and production on Digital Discharge (the world's craziest podcast show I might add), all of which no doubt I'll try going on about at some time later in my online activities.
Until then cyberchums, keep on flogging :)
Mr. Dave

Welcome to Thoughts.com, Mr. Dave. As for videos...haven't a clue. But ask around, there are much more savvy folks than I lurking here.

Hi Dave. I second the welcome from BootLady. I do video for a living, but had yet to post one on this site until I read your blog and decided to put up a short, old drive-in movie ad to test out the procedure. It worked fine for me with an mpg. I just filled in the info with the stars (don't forget to fill in a couple of tags or it won't work), browsed for the vid on my hdd, and clicked on upload FILE. The first time I tried upload VIDEO and it didn't upload it for me.
Give it a shot. I'll probably be throwing a few interesting shorts up in the near future.
Have a good time while you're here and try to ignore the spelling mistakes, the grammar mistakes and the general inability to form a coherent sentence and you'll fit in just fine.
Oh yeah, I wonder why your post was flagged as inappropriate?
