DM Stith at Crawdaddy

I went to see DM Stith play Crawdaddy back in May, and having just received my D90 camera, I tried to take a video at the concert. I should've brought a tripod however, or shaken less on my hands that evening, and I should probably have practiced a bit on the manual focus as well, but at least the music is good! We enjoyed it.

It cuts off a little abruptly, as there's a 5 minute max length for video-clips with the camera.

You can download the track for free from the album profile on Last.fm

On a sidenote, As a child I used to play with the funny sound tubes they swing over their heads, forgot what they are called, anyone?

Monie Love, The Erin Brockovich of Hip-Hop

D-Nice, once a full time MC, has taken to the camera to document some of the true stories of Hip-Hop. Seeing that Hip-Hop is a culture of much hyperbole and frivolous claims to this and that, this one with Monie Love on life, love, and Hip-Hop is especially relieving.

Blame Transfer Protocol

The Blame Transfer Protocol or BTP is a Transport layer Protocol used to transfer blame. It is similar to TCP in its guarantees of data transmission and packet ordering, but instead of being a Connection-oriented stream-based protocol, it employs the Connectionless Datagram model, such as that employed by UDP. #

Update: This post reminded me of the whole geeky RFC lore where people would sometime suggest highly non-sensical, but usually very well documented, entries. Like the Standard for Transmissions of Datagrams on Avian Carriers, and the equally funny Hyper Text Coffee Pot Control Protocol.
