Video Camera to Computer Wirelessly

I am hoping someone out there in the land of Internet and tech will be able to help me answer my question.

What I am thinking in my mind is somehow sending audio/video from my Video Camera to my computer. I am hoping that the computer will then see the incoming A/V from the camera as a webcam type device.

The idea is to be able to stream mobile content online without being tied to a computer with cables. I realize the range may be an issue, but I was thinking of being able to wonder around a room, while the computer would be in a stationary place.

If you have a solution or know where to find one, like a link, let me know. Or even if it is something similar.

Sitting By the Fire

Okay we are going to try this new thing, were instead of ranting about stuff, I will point out positive stuff.

Quick side note, I am hoping over the next few days to reorganize this blog a little better. I would like to re do all the categories and start blogging a lot more about day to day stuff as well as more of what I am constantly doing online.

Anyways on to what I started this for. Do you have a fire place or wood stove in your house? I do and I love it and here is why. It creates a relaxing atmosphere for me. Even though a furnace may heat your home, a fire takes the chill out of the air. There is just something comforting about sitting in the same room and feeling its heat coming at you. I always find it is when I am able to write the best, because everything just seems to escape me and my mind is, for once, clear and focused.

Is there something that just relaxes you to the point where all your thoughts just go away and your mind is clear and refreshed feeling.

Yes I know the post is short and not as descriptive as I originally planned. I had to leave the room with wood stove to stock up the wood pile and then got distracted. Go Figure.

My Mind is Racing with Ideas

I feel like my mind is racing so fast that I can’t take the time to stop and blog about it. So I am going to try really hard here right at this moment to stay focused on writing this.

Couple things that I have been pondering and watching this morning are the development of YkOnline and the Blogathon that is happening in Vancouver as well as all over the world over the next 24 hours.

I will start this with YkOnline. It has yet to be written in stone as to what I want the site to be, although it does seem to be something. I have been watching several other “community” blogs trying to taken in how they are built and maintained. Ones such as BlogTO and Beyond Robson which are Fresh Daily blogs, Torontoist and The Coast. These are all well established sites, run by several people and catered to 100x more people than Yellowknife’s population. But I believe that someday soon with some dedication I can get the site to become not only a great site for locals but also a resourceful site for people researching about moving to Yellowknife. I’m facing some challenges as I have to leave the north for 8 months for school but I know in the long run it is a good thing and will only help with the site but in the mean time I don’t want it to die. I will have more details about YkOnline soon.

As for the Blogathon, this has got me excited. I absolutely love the idea. I’m watching a lot of Vancouver bloggers do it right now. Check it out at Blogathon.org and consider donating. What is happing, is several bloggers have gotten together (you don’t have to, but they have chosen to this time around) and will be blogging for 24 hours straight. They will each publish a post every 30 minutes about what ever they like. Each blogger has their own charities they are getting pledges for. Some of the bloggers are writing about their charities and why they are blogging for them, while others have themes to go off of.

My mind is flying with ideas and possibilities for a Yellowknife Blogathon. I am just imagining all the local bloggers getting together at Javaroma or some other local for 24 hours of blogging. Now I’m not sure if Yellowknife’s Bloggers get enough recognition but I still think it would be fun and worth it for the charities.

Got a comment or suggestion about either of these things. I would love to know.

Starting a Podcast

I decided I would take the bold move and attempt to start a weekly podcast. I tried video but I just couldn’t wrap my head around doing a weekly video so instead I am going to switch to just audio for a bit. Although I will still continue with my random videos every once and a while.

I have been looking since day one for my niche and I have some what settled into writing about Yellowknife, which I enjoy so I figured what better topic for a podcast. In the podcast I hope to talk about some Yellowknife news which would be currently in the headlines as well as Yellowknife’s online community. From those who are on twitter, in the social media club and any other new Yellowknife related site and finds there might be.

What I would love to happen would be for this podcast to become a community “project” where others contribute whether it is just a new website link for Yellowknife they have found or actually coming on the show and sharing what they have found.

I have yet to figure out how to record Skype conversations but am able to use iChat in Garageband for the time being. So if anyone is at all interested in joining me in an episode let me know. Seriously.

Well that’s it for now.

Update, which is long over due

Well folk I suppose I owe you some explanation as to when I have been up too, well here it is.

First I will explain the new name and its reason. The reason I chose I attempt to take a new name was because 1. I wanted something that was the same over almost all sites. Which looks like this one is, except for YouTube. In that case I will use the name kylewithDOTcom. 2. I wanted something that will be with me forever. You see The Bushman is/was a nick name (one which I gave to myself) and like most nick names you grow out of them eventually. So I wanted something that is me, therefore Kyle WiTh was born. See the Wi Th are the first 2 initials of my middle and last name. I thought it was neat it spelt a word so I ran with it. For example when telling someone my website I can say just go to Kyle with dot com and there would be no confusion. I also am using the word With as a business name, which is With Media. Apparently I specialize in Web Development, Design and Marketing, who knew. That is the story behind KyleWiTh.

So with that I had to created several new account, register a new domain name (only $9.95), create another new e-mail address (up to 7 now) and transfer my WordPress blog/files from The Bushman directory to this one. That was a scary process as I didn’t know if I was doing it right but know I do.

I apologize for the absence in both this blog and YkOnline and will be getting posts out semi regularly again tomorrow. I also have a couple idea for YkOnline which may benefit Yellowknife Online as a community so stay tuned.

If there are any spelling or grammar mistakes with in this post, just bite your tongue. It is late and I’m trying to get this out before I fall asleep.
