TV connectors demystified - episode 2 of Lab Rats is now available, with one caveat. I am still rendering the 640×480 WMV version which I’ll post by midnight (if my G5 iMac ever gets thru it!). Enjoy!

Lab Rats has a new blog — www.labrats.tv/blog. I’ll continue to publish Lab Rats news here but over on the Lab Rats blog Sean, Matt and I will put lots of stuff about the podcast.

On Sunday Oct 30, I’ll be checking out (and maybe saying a word or two) at the Apple store in Toronto where my talented pal Geo Perdis, media guru, is putting on a seminar called the New Photography (click for invite). See you there!

Well after a bit of a slog today, labrats.tv is up and running on a new server with unlimited bandwidth and all file formats are available including WMV.
Plus, we now have a bittorrent seed at www.techtainment.net/bt (so thank you techtainment!) - and thanks to everyone who offered to help. It’s very much appreciated.
Next […]

Well that was a helluva ride. At around 5PM EST my ISP shutdown my server after 12.5 GB of files were transferred off the server. Lab Rats is a success! But it shutdown the whole Cyberwalker.com site including forums, the software lbrary and the main site. So we have created a new server at […]

Well looks like my server melted down due to all the Lab Rats downloads so I am relocating files and setting up a new server now.
So I have taken down some of the optional formats. Back up this evening with all the selections!
(Hooray! We’re glad you guys like the show.)

Lab Rats Episode 1 is now live. Sorry for the delay. the multiple formats took a while to render. Get it here.
And I am happy to announce that Sean, Matt and I shot episode 2 last night and it is being edited now by Sean.

I always buy my memory from Crucial and i noticed they are offering 10% off memory for DIMMs over 512 MB. So if you’re thinking of an upgrade for your system this fall, might want to take advantage of this.
512 MB runs about $65 US these days so the deal knocks it down to […]

For those of you who watch for new lingo, you know that the web is the best place to see it first.
This AM I read a little bit about blog spam… dubbed “splog”. It’s where spammers send comments or posts to blogs embedded with links to get them posted so they go out to millions […]

Sean Carruthers (gadget guy on CFH) and I shot episode 1 of Tuesday night with CFH associate producer Matt Harris, who is the guy that produced my field segments on CFH. Matt is extremely clever and a great producer and so episode 1 of Lab Rats will be fab.
Sean is editing so […]

Happy to report that my redundancy worked. When I got back from the radio station I had two nice copies. Tho as my pal Frank Linhares of techphile.ca recommended I should record it at the station. Will try that next week. Need to get cables.
Anyway, here’s episode 3.

Steve Jobs announced the iPod Video today. The music player, which comes in black or white with a 2.5-inch color screen, will be available in a 30GB model for US$299 and a 60GB version for US$399. The new devices hold up to 15,000 songs, 25,000 photos or more than 150 hours of video. So I […]

Sean and I have been working feverishly on “Episode zero” of Lab Rats and we have produced something workable. He’s cutting a releasable version of the episode which is more of an equipment test with a light and sound check than anything else. However there are some antics that include a little rat action and […]

Hey folks….Mark C. just emailed me a note to tell me about an online Hijack This! log analyser. As you may know Hijack This available for free at www.merijn.org helps analyse your system for browser hijackers. However the log it creates requires analysis by an expert so you know which settings to remove in your […]

Uh oh…wmrecorder failed to record this week’s episode of Cyberwalker Mondays. Sorry folks I’ll have to set up a redundancy so this won’t happen again.

Thanks to some great feedback I have been swayed into editing episode 001 of Cyberwalker Mondays to remove the news and commericals.
We’ll see how it goes. Makes sense to dump the news and traffic as that has no relevance. I may have to put the commericals back in. For now they are dropped.
Watch for […]
