Party like it's 1999

EEK! I just looked at the last time I posted and it appears that I've allowed this place to go fallow -- so much for the "post at least once a week" wisdom that old-school bloggers used to share (actually, I think it was once a day!). Anyway, I took the leap and, over a couple of nights and a couple of beers, put together this video résumé to throw out there to prospective employers:


Many thanks to Stevie Wonder and the Red Hot Chili Peppers for "Higher Ground" -- please don't come after me for royalties, I need a job!

 Maybe I'm being too tough on myself, saying that I've partied like it's 1999 (never considered using THAT song, frankly) by creating a video résumé and posting it on YouTube, for all 11 viewers I've had to see, because I don't think their are a bunch of people doing what I just did. Yeah, I'm no pioneer but it amazes me that more people aren't taking advantage of the technology that's available -- free (for the most part), easy to use and engaging.

The video was created using PowerPoint and converted to an MP4. I played with it in Camtasia and Articulate but I didn't see that those programs added anything to it, so this is what you get. Occam's Razor and all of that.

Par-TAY!!!
