TELEPROMPTER APPLICATIONS

I have been practising with some Teleprompter applications on my iPhone to make sure I look at the little green dot on the camera rather than looking at the screen. This is so that when I’m talking to the camera I am not looking so shifty which is the effect to get when you’re looking away from the camera and is it off to the left or to the right.

THE JOYS OF MICRO-BLOGGING

Looking at Micro Blogging I’m quite pleased with micro.blog and I can see me sticking with it. I was also looking at Montaigne.io which creates a blog based on what you put in a shared Apple Notes folder. I have made numerous attempts to get it working and nothing is happening. The instructions and not great and could do with a video showing how to do it step by step. I would make that video if I could complete the process and see posts arriving on the platform.

PERSONAL KNOWLEDGE MANAGEMENT APP TANA IN COMPARISON WITH OBSIDIAN, CRAFT AND LOGSEQ

I’ve just uploaded the latest good and Geeky video to YouTube. This is a video about the application Tana. I have made comparisons with applications like Obsidian, Logseq and Craft which are further along in the development cycle of personal knowledge management applications. There are a few things I like with Tana. It has a kind of database system set up already with the use of super tags. Basically a super tag is a tag with extra added feels added underneath it.

EDITING VIDEO IN DESCRIPT FOR THE FIRST TIME

Just did my first editing of a video in Descript and it’s pretty cool. I still have to do some adding of extras in other software but it was really efficient for what I did with it. Chopping out text and the video was edited. I have not tried out the thing where is will create my voice for my editing of the text. Overdub as it is called needs at least 10 minutes of my voice to do that and my recording was only 9 minutes long.

RECORDING VIDEO – OTHER PKM APPLICATIONS VERSUS TANA

I just recorded a video using an application called Teleprompter on my iPhone. I really like using it on the settings are easy to use and follow. The good thing about choosing a teleprompter is that it forces me to speak at a slower speed. I am often talking too fast for use within a tutorial video. There only thing is, I just noticed after doing the recording that my my microphone on my Mac wasn’t plugged in.

A GOOD AND GEEKY DAY

I’m having a good and geeky day with setting up AirTable with a database of all my YouTube videos. Airtable is great for organising all sorts of things. I also decided to give this Micro-Blog a try out. I looked at it before but did nothing with it. This time I have downloaded apps, and everything. I want to see how the cross- posting works getting stuff over to Mastodon as well as Twitter.

Good and Geeky Youtube I’m an old bloke who loves technology. It’s pure magic to do good and geeky stuff with my Macs, iOS devices and my Raspberry Pi’s. I make videos to show how to do things with the software, just because it’s fun. Subscribe to the Good and Geeky Channel Lately I’ve made a load of videos about the features in the new version of Affinity Designer. Excellent bit of software to work making vector art.
