Chassy Cat makes up for lost time by answering several Burning Questions in one episode! And then there’s the “singing.” And yes, as a matter of fact I am using my sarcastic quotes.
Also, my apologies to Instant Star. YOU know why.

If you haven’t watched the SONG portion of my Horrible Evil Sidekick video at YouTube– just for kicks, you know– feel free to click on over! And rate me with 5 stars! And leave a comment. But… no pressure. I don’t even care.
Okay, TechnoGeeks, I confess… I have identified what could potentially be a Fatal Flaw in the Apple iPhone: Taking a self-portrait is HARD, yo?
I mean, no mirror for framing purposes?! What the…?! And that is not even to mention the fact that it is super hard to figure out where to press to actually SNAP the shot when your iPhone is turned AWAY from you.
But not to worry! Chassy Cat is on the case!
Now, there’s nothing I can do about the self-portrait mirror thing (Apple, are you listening?!) except to suggest you try pointing the camera lens in your general direction and telling everyone that you MEANT for the picture to be all slanty like that, thank you very much (”Hello? It’s avant-garde! DUH!”), but I DO have a solution that will make snapping the pix a breeze!
Watch and learn, Grasshopper(s). Watch and learn.

TechnoGeekery Show #36: Buying Domain Names… What’s the Point? (Part II)

Ha! You thought I forgot, didn’t you?! Admit it! You were all, “Chassy Cat totally left us hanging with the Domain Buying, yo?!” But I didn’t! See?!
So get out those brand-spankin’ new domain names, dust ‘em off, and sit back and watch the magic.
Wow. That sounded vain. Just so we’re clear, there is no actual magic involved. Just some fancy domain pointing and stuff.
I thought I should mention that, you know, in the interest of full disclosure…
And a special thanks goes out to Jen of MommyofMany.com for the video! You rock, sister-friend, and I am SO glad you found a way to use one of my tips to stay connected with your hubby while he is deployed overseas. Yay, technology!

TechnoGeekery Show #30: Send Videos… One Click!

TechnoGeekery with Chassy Cat is brought to you by Aveeno Baby. Check them out!
IMPORTANT: Chassy Cat needs your videos! I’ve written a song for this occasion.
To prove I have friends, I need your videos now…
Send whatever you want, except porn ain’t allowed!
In order to assist you in the giving of your silly/informative/awesome/musical/modern dancey/whateverexceptnotporn videos, watch today’s show to learn a little info about “one-click hosting” services, and how that will make sending videos and other large files (pictures, documents, music) SO MUCH EASIER.
Best of all? Totally FREE! (Well, in most cases. But there’s no reason to pay for the service when there are so many free ones out there! Just sayin’!)
Thanks to Daria from Boutique Cafe, and Paige from Mommycast, for the awesome videos! Seriously, TechnoGeeks, send whatever… just send it!
Chassy Cat’s two favorite FREE one-click hosting sites:
YouSendIt (Lite Account is FREE)
Other Services:
RapidShare: It’s not pretty, but it’s been around for a long time; some internet service providers (ISP’s) may block it (100 MB limit for free folders).
Box.net : Popular for simplicity; offers 1GB of free space.
Drop.io: No email signup and no accounts; best suited for smaller files (100 MB limit).
Window Live SkyDrive: Password-protected online file storage; requires a Windows Live account.
MediaFire: No email signup; like Drop.io, best suited for smaller files (100 MB limit for free accounts).
(Another VERY cool application I’m looking into is DropBox, which is a beta syncing application. More on that at a later date! If anyone has tried it, leave a comment, or email me with your review, yo?)
Wikipedia rates some of the top services HERE.
REMEMBER: Don’t be a PIRATE! (arrrg!) Send files responsibly.
