I’m trying out Blip.tv and this is a test post to see how their embedded player works. It took roughly 7 hours to upload and recode the video into the flash format! Way, way too long. The video size is 265mb and the length is 43 minutes

Viddler actually lets me embed the video into my blog and the quality is much better. Took 2 hours from start to finish before I could post it! Much better!

Still waiting for Crackle to encode. I gotta say that Crackle’s web site sure outshines any competitor!

Ok, Crackle is done. Took about 3 hours and the online video quality is crap.  And I can’t view it in Flock (my browser of choice as of late)

Looks like Viddler is the winner this round!

Hannah has left the building….of Cruikshank Middle School that is! Last night was graduation night and here are the pictures to prove it!

She was one of four students (out of about 275) who won the American Legion Award! Go Hannah!

‘m sorry not everyone could go, tickets were a hot commodity.  One lady gave us tickets right as we entered the gate, which is why Hannah’s little cousin was able to go!  How nice!
