someone who's doing some things
I have been really enjoying this season of Blake’s 7 stories, the arc has been great and each individual story has been good on its own as well, and this story was no different at all. The cast are really good together and the production quality is very high.
I think I might have to listen to them all again even before the next one is out.
Even though I have this album, and I’ve probably bought it about 4 times now, I still couldn’t help myself!
I got really excited today when I heard that IFTTT was finally coming to Android. It was always something I knew that they’d do, just a question of when, and the when was now. So when I opened up my Nexus 7 to find the IFTTT app on google play, and it wasn’t there I was a little disappointed. Of course, it was there, but just not for me, or rather, not for the Nexus 7.
I suppose it will come to Android tablets eventually, but it’ll take a little while I guess, which is a shame as the Nexus 7 was Google’s flagship 7″ tablet. I suppose I just don’t get why apps like this can’t come to the OS fully universal from day one? It doesn’t make sense to me.
So I’m back to waiting again for this, and what’s worse, I know about the Android specific channels that IFTTT have built into their Android app. So I really do know what I’m missing!
One of the things I picked up from Record Store Day last weekend was this special release of John Foxx’s first album Metamatic on white vinyl. I’ve had this album for ages but I couldn’t resist getting this version.
Just some pictures from what was a very cold queue for Rough Trade East on Saturday morning. I think I queued up for just over 2 hours in the end, and I managed to get two of the three special releases I was after.
I thought I’d like to capture some Audiobus presets for myself and store them somewhere. So I found a way to capture the presets to a Google spreadsheet and then embed the sheet in a web page. The page you can find here. I’ll be adding to it over time, so it’ll grow and more and more Audiobus presets will get added. Obviously, to get them to work you’ll need to access them from your iOS device and not a desktop.
This is of course amazing news. These two apps are incredible powerhouses of iOS automation and the new UI module and its associated features will take both apps into new directions for automating text using iOS devices. The developer’s extensive description of how it all works and what’s behind the release is brilliant too.
I can’t wait to get my hands on the new versions. I just hope it won’t be long.
Another amazing story from Big Finish. It’s always great to hear Geoffrey Beevers as the Master, and excellent to hear Michael Keating in a Doctor Who story.
This was an excellent story too. There’s real depth in this one, and the development of Leela’s character is really interesting too. In fact this whole series has been excellent so far. I’ve been very impressed, and this story isn’t any different.
I quite enjoyed making this and getting it finished off. It isn’t perfect by any means, but it isn’t bad, and as a first attempt (almost first) I’m quite pleased with it.
Of course, it makes me think of other stuff I’d like to do with video, so expect more at some point.
