Open Source
Life, Movies October 24th. 2007, 10:44pmYes, yes, I know. It’s been a while since my last update. One thing I’ve noticed is that my website seems to have been demoted on Google’s indexes. Now, whenever you use the search term “lessthandan”, my site no longer appears first. Fortunately, this may change soon. Right now things are a bit iffy, only because of the way my domain name is set up (It creates non-canonical URLs for my blog, making it less optimized for search engines). My domain expires in a few days, and when it does, I will simply re-register it with my current webhost rather than using a DNS, which may improve some things.
In other news, I am enthusiastically working on a new short film for school. It’s called Open Source and it’s a horror movie with a geeky message behind it. I finished shooting it last Saturday, and I’m actually quite happy with the way the video turned out (the lighting effects and camera angles are impressive). As of now, I’m still in the process of editing it in Adobe Premiere Pro, which is an excellent piece of software. Hopefully it will be finished soon.
In the meantime, here is an extremely nerdy picture of me setting up a web server in my basement. Click on it for a larger image.
Edit: The domain issue has actually been fixed now, so now my blog strictly uses canonical URLs. Just thought I’d let you know.

Now… if only your walls were lined with like… idk, old keyboards or a cork wall with scratches of code written on it…
Now THAT would be a classic picture.
