I wonder how many marbles are in this jar?

Bad_Goth guessed 2,100, which was too high. Here’s a hint: More than 900, less than 2,100. (We currently have 33 people playing!) Whoever gets chosen this round gets a free CD of their choice.

Entries are now closed. New guesses are at 1,743 to 2,100.

I know this is not what you want to read about, but the file is still uploading. I said to heck with YouTube. So I re-ripped the video into Flash, and will host the movie here. It is uploading now, and has 9 minutes 11 seconds left.

I was going to host the video here at PlanetMike, but it’s enormous. So I’m sending it to YouTube. I really hate Verizon’s DSL. It is so slow on uploads. What is wrong with the tube companies in the US? Fast downloads, but uploads creep along. With more and more people become content creators instead of content absorbers, the tubes need to be fast both up and down from my home. It is only going to get worse every month as the tools used for podcasting (audio and video) continue to get easier and easier to use.

Doh! I missed my posting in the 6:00 to 6:30 half hour. Just for that, I’m not going to go to bed tonight. Sorry about that. I got so involved in working on my video, I forgot to set the alarm to do a posting.

The movie is exporting from iMovie now. It’ll take another 3 minutes it says. Then I’ll test it on a couple computers here, then upload it to the site.

I learned a lesson: Start early on video!

I’m adding in the titles now, and the transitions between photos. Hopefully, I’ll be able to hit “Publish” in the next half hour.

I’m plugging away on the movie. My wife is helping identify the dates of some of the photos of our niece, who has CHARGE Syndrome.

Madonna (wow, she got randomly chosen twice!) guessed 2,917, which was too high. Here’s a hint: More than 900, less than 2,917. (We currently have 30 people playing!) Whoever gets chosen this round gets a free CD of their choice.
