Cool Tool

For all my artistic friends (and those of you who just like to doodle), this is a neat little program that lets you create paintings, drawings, etc. from scratch. It also has a really cool feature where you can open a photo and then trace it or paint over it without actually altering the original picture. There's a free version for us doodlers and a full-blown version for only $19.

Heh, heh, heh!

I shall use it for evil (by that, I mean I think I know how I'll produce the artwork for Lion and Elephant and Cousin Billy Joel).

There is a website that is kind of fun that let's you and a friend doodle and have fun but I can't remember what it is called. Laura knows. You might like it. It doesn;t have lots of whistles and bells but the interactive part is awesome.

Why Do I Do This?

I was originally inspired by the Web log posted on the site for Propellerhead Software. They developed a cool 808 emulator which eventually morphed into an entire digital audio workstation package (Reason). Those early posts documented their development process and gave a human insight into their struggles. It was cool. So, I bought some hosted space and figured out FrontPage to put a rudimentary site together. My goal was to connect my family, but then realized this could be a great way for me to keep track of happenings over time. Eventually, the manual, HTML journal gave way to this Blogger setup - much easier to deal with, and not bound to one computer.

Ultimately, this is more about nothing than an episode of Seinfeld, but I appreciate that you've read this far. Really.
