Roger Houston...we now have Flash!

It's took a new computer, lots of wiring and a few minor cuts, but our engineering staff and myself brought our new video encoder for KRISTV.COM online.  What's so cool about that - it does Flash!  It's an announcement that will make many of our Firefox, Mozilla and Mac friends very happy.

We're going to spend the next few weeks building up our video library of Flash encoded files, and are planning to roll out our Flash player when we launch our new homepage design.  (Hopefully that will be within the next month.)

But to start, we're running a "beta" flash player on our weather page.  We can also embed it just about anywhere, so here's the first big test.

It appears it work inside our little bloggersphere.  That's so cool.  I've been like a little kid at Christmas opening all the new computer boxes...  Of course, I had to wait till all the wiring was done to "play" with them.  Along with the computer, we got a sweet UPS backup to keep the computers humming in a power surge, storm or hurricane.

Stay tuned, I'll have more news on the new homepage look in the coming weeks.

New Blog ... New software

I know it's been awhile, but I've had good reason for not blogging.  Here's why.  I've actually written several posts over the past few weeks, but the blogging software I was using sucked.  It didn't like the links I wanted to add - or some other error occoured when trying to save a post.   When I tried to go back - the post was gone.

So we're migrating to TypePad for our blogging platform.  Our parent newspaper in Charleston, SC uses it ... and so far they like it.

We can produce multiple blogs on this format, so if you're interested in blogging, we can set you up.  If you have any questions ... send me an e-mail.
