Me and My Son: Our Seesmic Debut

Signed up for an alpha testing account on Seesmic.com and this is the first video I captured on the service.

Seesmic is best described as a video version of Twitter. Don't know what Twitter is? It's a platform for shouting to the world what you are doing at that very moment... 140 characters at a time.



For the record, Collin's favorite website is the free flash game website friv.com, and I have no advertisement agreement with them. (To friv.com: My son just plugged you, and he's pretty cute, so if you want to drop some dough this way, I won't say no.)

Also, as my boy just admitted, he's pretty hooked on Super Mario Brothers 3, which gets the kid in me pretty pumped as it was a favorite of mine in my pre-pubescent years.

I'll keep you posted on what I think about Seesmic.com as I get to use the service more.

How deep into the rainbow do you see?

Today's blog post idea comes courtesy of the blog Pensieve who in turn got it from the blog "Rocks in my Dryer."

29

I am shocked that I couldn't name more than 29 colors in 5 minutes. I really racked my brain and that truly is the best I could do. All those years of coloring with the Crayola 120+ deluxe crayon set and I can barely remember 20% of them?

Am I losing my memory and am I just blissfully unobservant of the trivial?

Give it a whirl and see how you do! Click here or on my results badge to take the test. Post the results on your own blog and share them with us here in comments.

Free tip: the five minute timer starts as soon as you click begin and the page loads! Be ready!
