    I’ve been developing a plug-in for Powet.TV to automate some background stuff that we do regularly. One of the things I need to do is add a meta-box to the ‘edit post’ administration page. The below image is an example of a very simple meta-box. Its just a standard container for content in the administration…

    I have finally gotten around to posting the gallery for Botcon 2010 on Orlando, Florida. Maybe sometime I’ll get to doing the gallery for 2009. Above you can see the obligatory group photo. Unfortunately, it was done very impromptu as Ernie and Rubin were trying to leave, so we couldn’t find Sam nor Robert in…

    Still catching up a bit here and wanted to drop the link on anyone who hasn’t seen my video for January 2010 just yet. Link. This is by far my most ambitious video to date in nearly every way. Not as funny as some older ones, but definitely pushing the envelope on my editing and…

    I’ll be playing a little catch up here and there since I’ve missed so much in my blogging absence. The end of December brought about the first collaborative video done by the PowetTV staff. Our original intention on the site was to pool our resources and do lots of collaborative videos, but due to scheduling,…

    New review is up! Revenge of the Fallen Wheelie I did this entire video in rhyme in honor of the original Wheelie. I really liked the RotF Wheelie. I heard someone complain that he was too much like Joe Pesci, but honestly had they not made him like that, even more people would have complained…

    In honor of Tax day, I wrote up a wonderful little retrospective on everyone’s favorite Decepticon Fuel Auditor, Ratbat. It was a fun little article to write. Given enough time, I’ll probably do more. Particularly if an appropriate occasion arises that warrants such an article. In this case, it was the sudden proliferation of Ratbat…

    Got another video up for Powet.TV. I’ll talk about the move in another post, but one of the priorities after move-in was to get this video edited. I don’t think it came out too bad. Its pretty obvious what parts I refilmed and what I kept from the drab monotone original take.

    I put up a new PowetToys video on Powet.TV for the 4th of July. You can see the post here. Now that I finally have all my computers back up and running at full speed for the most part. Editing this video was far easier than videos I have done in the past. It also…

    This past weekend I was finally able to put a new video for PowetTV. Show notes available here. I’ve had a serious problem getting videos up with any regularity over the past year. I’ve really only put up about 4 videos. The prior year I was able to put one up almost every month. This…
