Follow the Night Devil as he seeks to uncover The Evil-9 in this audio comic. Featurning the writing, sound design, and vocal talents of yours truly. I made the sound track with Garageband.

Say you have an Excel list that contains both first and last names in the same column. You probably need to put first names in one column and last names in the other.

I don’t really understand the process, but I pasted the formulas and followed instructions from this page: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;72573

It works!

Carrie Sipple and I made this for the Uncle Dracula Film Race last week. We were given the holiday “President’s Day” and the genre “Music Video.” We also had to incorporate a banana as well as a character named “Julie Steinberg.”

Downloading videos found on sites such as YouTube is easy.

1. Find the URL (web address) of the video you want to download
2. Go to keepvid.com and enter the URL of the video you want to download.
3. I recommend to choose the “save as mpg file” option. FLV files don’t seem too user-friendly.

Keepvid.com is just one site that enables you to download web videos, a web search will turn up a high number of other options.

Please note: It’s probably a bad idea to download and broadcast content that is owned by someone else.

Need to flip a spreadsheet in Excel and turn columns into rows or vice versa?

Here’s what you do:

Highlight the area you want to flip
Click copy or paste
Click on empty cell where you want the flipped items to go, make sure the cell is empty.
Click “Paste Special” and in the options check “Transpose”
That should do it!
