Putting a photo frame to real use (in my office) + playing with a Flip video camera
I just got a new Flip Video camera and needed to play with it.
Our photo guy (JP Wollersheim) always hooks me up with goodies to play with, and a few months he dropped off a Samsung photo frame which I have hooked up to my photos on Windows Live Spaces.
I can take some photos using my eye.fi and they up up to Spaces and then over Wi-fi (via a router and direct tap in my office) the photos get displayed.
The photo frame is useful when I’m on the road, I can take photos on my cellphone or camera and they go up to Spaces and get pointed down the hall so people can see what I’m upto.
A while ago I saved a PowerPoint deck as images and pushed them into Windows Live Spaces (kinda like DIY SlideShare) – anyway it looks awesome – super cheap way to display presentations – save them to the cloud and point a photo frame at them.
The video I shot is below (no that music isn’t overlayed, that was what was on in my office from Last.fm) – I just grabbed the AVI from the Flip Video device and uploaded to Silverlight Streaming by Windows Live
