We haven’t gotten around to posting new photos of Evan lately, so we had about a 6 month backlog! Take a look on the photos page. Months 22 through 28 are new.

Kill-a-watt

A few months ago I was given a Kill-A-Watt electricity usage meter as a gift. It’s a small device with a digital readout that you plug into a wall socket. When you plug whatever you want to test into the unit, it shows how many watts it’s drawing.

I’ve been measuring most of the items in my house and am recording my findings in a Google Spreadsheet. I’ve written up a page with my findings, which you can see here.

On the eve of the new Transformers movies, I thought I’d post a link to my stop-motion Transformers animation. They’re just some goofy videos some friends and I made, but I spent a while this evening setting up a new video player called WordTube. It uses a Flash video player and really works a lot better than the junk I was using before. When I moved to the new host, the old one broke anyway.

Here are the video pages:

EDIT: I actually posted a couple of new ones tonight. They aren’t great, but they’re free!
