A random logbook thought

I’ve been meaning to ask this question to the Livejournal readers out there for a while, but keep forgetting to ask.
I’ve been thinking about setting things up so that theLogBook.com’s “front page” is posted to my LJ blog automagically, sorta like Scribblings is currently.

I am still planning on having it done by July at the latest. Those who have seen it at OVGE in years past will still be surprised: it’ll be nearly twice as long, necessitating it being either a 2-DVD set or (less likely) a dual-layer DVD. As much as I’d love to do it dual layer, blank single-layer discs are, quite simply, cheaper. (Go price a spindle of DL-DVD+Rs, even at Wal-Mart. Seriously.) I’m still working on adding more stuff to it, including a real gem of a long-lost commercial that’s literally just been…um…unearthed. (Negotiations are ongoing.)
In the meantime, I’m working on a couple of Nefarious Video Projects. … Read more
