Flip Video

John Gruber mentioned this on his famous blog. I’ve been waiting for something just like it for years now. It stores an hour of video, connects via USB, Record/Stop. There’s nothing else to it. Oh, except this action mount. I need to go out on the Scituate Reservoir route and record the completely arbitrary bike lane on highway 14 and send it to Slate. One mile long, two painful hills. Not much cost to taxpayers: just put up a sign that says “Bike Route” on one end and another that says “Bike Route Ends” on the other. No road modifications necessary. 

So, is the camera any good? Don’t know. Hasn’t arrived yet. 

My commute

Sunday, March 30th, 2008

My commute. This is before the construction on the Martin St. bridge on the Blackstone Valley Bikeway was completed. When the bike path is covered with ice, as it was all winter, I use this route. Now that spring is kinda here I’ve got an easier ride.
