Here is a quick introduction to using Google Code to find Wordpress themes and plugins. A little tongue in cheek, but I think it gets the basics across. In this episode, we’re in search of the elusive videowrangler and pledgedrive plugins. Click the thumbnail for the full-sized Quicktime version (mp4). Here’s a direct link to the Quicktime video and to the Internet Archive details page.

The weather changed a bit today. The San Francisco Bay area is known for this. Yesterday was postcard pretty and we all got out for a nice walk. Tonight, it is windy and stormy and I’m so glad to be cozy and warm inside.

I drove up to the bay area today to meet with the other Outhinkers in Tiburon and plan next steps for Ourmedia, SpinXpress and Bid4Vid. We took a break in the evening to get a bite to eat and a few tequila shots. Barely time left today for a Videoblogging Week 2008 video, so here’s a short taste from our dinner with fellow twitter friends Dave Toole (musicality), Eric Zimmerman (ezwrighter) and Chris Ritke (critke).

Drupal and Open Source

Markus — Wed, 21 Nov 2007 12:22:50 +0000

Our good friend Jacob Redding stopped by to participate at DrupalCampLA 2007. He gave us a brief open source, pep talk during the opening session. Good stuff. Since then, I met Richard Stallman at BarCampLA 2007 and have become more interested in open source, and more importantly, “free” software. Here’s a video recording of Jacob’s presentation.
