If technology doesn't seem like magic, it's probably obsolete

I'm finding less time to update my blog these days, but my flickr photostream is often updated.

Playing in my house right now...

At 00:00 GMT on Thursday I was listening to:

Throwing new, relatively untested technology right into a situation where it must work is not always a good idea, as I learned at the weekend. I recorded a few short videos of my uncle, to send to relatives overseas. My plan was to email them immediately, but when I came to send them on my NEC e606, I got the helpful error message 'Memory is full'. Initially I thought I'd recorded too many videos, and deleted the downloaded stuff, until eventually I had to get rid of the personal messages. After much cursing and googling, I finally worked out that I should delete sent mails. Grrrr.

Just in case anyone else has the same problem and is not so fluent in Russian (that was the only other site I found when I googled), I'm noting the problem and resolution here, so that when the googlebot next visits, the information will be search-findable. Now if anyone knows how to recover deleted files on an e606, I would be very grateful to know.

Video posting is now working as it should, which is quite cool.
