Uplifter Carolina Meeting

Saturday, March 25th, 2006

This is my first ever live blog from an event. There are five of us here playing with various things, including trying to make my cheapy ebay camera into a webcam. It is supposed to do this on it’s own, but you know how these things go. I’m learning a number of [...]
