My name is Sebastian Windele. I'm a 28 year old software developer living in Melbourne Australia. I have used windows based PC's since high school and have never used, let alone owned, an Apple computer in my life. That is until now...

Clipper - OSX Clipboard History Utility

First of all,  Sorry I have taken so long to post about clipper after I posted the video.  I just chucked the video up then got distracted with other stuff.  Anyway, If you’ve watched the video and installed Clipper I’m sure you’ve seen how handy the tool is.  I use it all the time.

Also, sorry the top of my screen is cut off.  It look like the screen capturing program that I use will not record the top menu bar of OSX…but I think you can see how it works anyway.

Here is the link to the download page: Clipper

A big Thank you to Ed Dale who twittered about this blog.  It sure sent a lot of people my way.  My viewership increased by 500%.  It just goes to show how powerful Twitter is especially when there are internet guru’s posting about your site. 

One problem with this blog is that none of my readers can post comments about my posts so I don’t get any feedback.  I’d love it if this could be more of a conversation, however, Tumblr do not have this feature.  Maybe since this blog is still pretty new, I could pick up and move to another blogging platfor that allows comments.  What do you think?  Please email me your thoughts at Sebastian.Windele@gmail.com

On the Mac front…I have been playing with Final Cut Express (FCE) and I must say it is very cool.  Well I shouldn’t say I’ve been playing with it because I have actually been using it in a real life scenario.  I have been editing together a wedding movie to give to my sister in law for Christmas. 

The software is very good and easy to get the hang of.  I watched a few tutorials on youtube and metacafe (especially videos by Izzy) and away I went.

I added titles to the movie with an awesome program called LiveType which comes with Final Cut Pro.  The titles this program can create are sooo cool but I just stuck with a classic scroll in and dissolve out.  It is a wedding movie afterall.

After finishing the video and titles I used iDVD that comes with OSX Leopard in iLife to make a DVD menu.  It already had an awsome template for a wedding so I dropped my photos in and that was that.  I burned the DVD and you would think it was done by a professional…OK, maybe that is going a bit far but its not bad for a hack.

I never got around to posting about google gadges for the OSX dashboard because I couldn’t get it to work :(  I might try again later

Not sure what I’ll be posting about next but stay tuned.
