Unabashedly Trying Something New

OK I know that nowadays everyone has a digital camera and every camera also has a feature for video taping yourselves.

So no excuses...this is my birthday request...

I'm going to post every video from every person who tapes a fun or funny birthday message to me right here on my blog on my birthday.

Please submit the youtube video link to me no later than June 7 so I can get the page set up for my actual birthday.

Sounds like a fun idea. I'd do it if I had any idea how..... Technologically Challenged are my two middle names.

@mum-me - cop out! Ask your hubby or kids! :D

Da Old Man said...

when is your actual birthday?

A New Yorker said...

@D.O.M.- That's information you don't need to make a good video. I gave you the deadline. Get movin' mister! :)

The question is...can I get my act together in time to put one together?

June 7! Dang, I'm still in Slacker mode on faux-hiatus. Okay, I'm off the hammock...

Mum-me said...

Oh, you seem to know me too well for an 'imaginary' friend (what my HB calls my bloggy buddies.) but now you've found me out I might just take you up on that challenge!

BTW Thanks for sharing your thoughts on my recent post. I value your point of view, and I am glad we can hold different opinions and still respect each other.

@mary- OH I just know yours will be good. :D

@marrisa - fly baby fly ;p

@mum-me- look forward to your video. I think our views are similar enough and yes we have mutual respect, which allows differing views and continued friendship! :)

What a fun and interesting idea! Hope you have a very happy birthday :)

Marissa said...

I had to go with a ready-made script on the software because I couldn't get it to talk right with my own text. Enjoy (I hope.) :D

A New Yorker said...

Alright you slakers ;p I already have Marissa's video. Thanks Marissa. I didn't put the comment up because I'm going to make a post with the actual video on my b-day. :D
@Ailurophile- Thanks. Will we be seeing a video from you too?
