Week 11 Tech Tip: Quotemaker

I have no mouth and I must scream (Quozio)

I recently read I Have No Mouth, And I Must Scream by Harlan Ellison and I'm very happy I finally got around to it! It's an incredibly well crafted short story that I recommend. The ending is haunting and I'm sure it really impacted those that read it during its time.

Anyways I made this quote image with Quozio

Tech Tips: Animated GIF Maker

So I used a reaaally old set of drawings I made when I wondered what animation would be like (it's time consuming!), and I ended up getting this result with a flat 130 ms between each frame, using the GIF maker:

Animation Test by me

When I made the drawings I used a different GIF maker that let me vary the time between each frame, and I ended up with this:

Pretty useful being able to control the time between frames, huh?

Tech Tips: Browser Bookmarks

Bookmark (Flickr)

Surprisingly enough, I haven't been using bookmarks at all. I usually just type stuff into my url bar and choose a suggestion instead. I can see how bookmarking can be really helpful though. I might keep separate folders for stuff like artists websites and manga since I can forget about those pretty easily and it'd be nice to have them organized.

Tech Tips: Ninja Cat and Zombie Dinosaurs

http://games.sense-lang.org/sense_NinjaCat.php

So I'm pretty good at touch typing, but this game is pretty hard sometimes. When I say that I mean I'll be in the middle of typing something and the game throws like 6 dinosaurs at me at once, haha. The levels are pretty long but apart from that the game's alright.

Tech Tips: Online Typing Test

Keyboard (Wikipedia)

I did a typing test on KeyHero.com. I ended up with a result of 114 wpm, which is one above what I'd gotten in middle school with typing tests. I think it's kind of sad that I didn't improve at all but at the same time I'm pretty happy with how fast I can type. It definitely helps with schoolwork where I have to type a lot.
