My new helmet cam

I recently bought an Oregon Scientific helmet cam. I bought it so that I could get video from my Supermoto. Well, I did get some video...on my first time out, I almost highsided my bike, and I got it all on video. Enjoy:



Look forward to seeing some sweet skiing video this year!!!

Add a seatbelt to your messanger bag

I found this on a blog called Evil (I actually found it through make). This seems like a sweet site and I dig seatbelt stuff (like belts, bags, and whatnot). Here is a quick tutorial on swapping your stock strap on a messenger bag for a seatbelt:

As many links as I could think of...

Kim mentioned to me the other day that I seem to know a lot of cool places to go on the net. That got me thinking..."How many do I actually know?". Turns out, I don't know too many "cool" websites. I do know a lot of useful websites and programs and a few cool websites, so instead of putting a list of "cool" places together, I decided to put a list of links to sites and software that I use/like/love or just think you might like. I use Ubuntu, so some of the stuff I listed only works on Linux, but I did try to make the links as cross platform as possible. Enjoy:
