And the Point Is?

I didn’t have to go and buy film earlier. I had a roll of 100 speed Fuji in my purse. It should be noted that I didn’t have a single camera in my purse that required film – just the G2 and my pencam – but I still had a roll of film in there. I’m wondering what that says about me?

By the way – I am posting this using Zempt. Zempt was a “Cookie Crumb” a few weeks ago, and I pointed out that you could use it to post to your MT powered blog offline, but I never got around to installing it. I finally did, and I would like to officially say IT ROCKS! And for those of you that always want a way to spell check your posts, Zempt has it. That, along with a lot of other cool features. Download it.

Now I’m off to hang out with the girls, playing with the Lomo. I’ve already shot half a roll of film, and I hope to finish it by tomorrow morning so I can have it developed before lunch. I can’t wait to see the results!

I don’t see why people would want to use an external program for Movable Type. I write my site in OpenOffice and then I upload it using Mozilla when I want to. I don’t see how an external program would make anything easier.

But I will try Zempt and see what the hoopla is about.

I’ll begin by explaining that some of us don’t like to do the type, spell-check, copy and paste posting routine. A tool that wraps that all in one app is very much appreciated. I may use the MT bookmarklet to start a post, but I’ll usually finish it in Kung-Log. Since Kung-Log is Mac-only, I’m not surprised that a Windows solution has been created. =)

Yeah, yeah, rub your Kung-Log fu in our PC user faces. 😉

I like Zempt for work because it’s not a web browser. Also, when I tried using the word processor to type posts to paste in to my blog, it changed all my quotes to curly quotes, messing links up when I posted it. With the spell check built in and the simple interface, it’s a good fit for me.

Zempt will be available in Mac and Linux versions before too long.

The real question is…

“I didn’t have a single camera in my purse that required film”

How many cameras do you usually carry in your purse? And how big is that purse?

I like pink, I like cookies. I shall like it here. Hmm, but on further reading, I feel quite inadequate here, lol! Heck, I probably didn’t even spell adequate korektly! 😉 I’ll have to do more reading so I can learn what you are talking about. You seem quite smart indeed 🙂

I normally have 2-3 cameras with me at all times, and now 4 that the Lomo is in there too. And the purse is not that big, I only have a small wallet in there in addition to my camera collection! So there is the G2, the Pencam, the cell phone (with a camera in it) and the Lomo.

What, you mean this isn’t normal? 😉

Hehe, I was gonna comment on this entry just to complain that Zempt claims to be a multi-platform but only offers downloads for Windows (since I’m considering getting a Mac soon ;). But then I saw that someone mentioned Kung-Log and all I can say is yay, now I’m more excited about my soon-to-be computer. 😉

I was going to complain about the same thing, ste! I was thinking hey.. that’s not exactly multi-platform! So off I go to download Kung-Log on my iBook. 🙂 Thanks whoever mentioned it!

Christine!! next time we see each other, can you bring one of your lomo cameras? i wanna see what it looks like! i totally forgot to ask you when we had our Finding Nemo date. 🙂
