In Episode 3 of My Life in Mouse Clicks, I talk about the developing vidcast and thank you for your support.

I am starting up a new project at MattPippen.com by the name of Wallpaper Wednesday. Every Wednesday I will have a picture that I have taken myself up for download on MattPippen.com. This is in the hope of getting some feedback on my photography skills, so please be sure to send an email or use the contact form located by clicking the link at the top.

Download the wallpaper here or by clicking on the picture.

I have a couple of really quick topics to write about so here we go.

1) Wallpaper Wednesday

I have a new project on my website, MattPippen.com, called Wallpaper Wednesday. The idea is that every Wednesday I will post a picture I have taken with my Sony DSC-W50 for people to download and use as wallpaper.

My hope is that at least one person will write in with some comments to help improve my photography. I have my first wallpaper up right now for download in 1920×1080 of the American flag on MattPippen.com so be sure to check it out.

2) Plans for a New Computer

I am in the process of planning out what parts to put together in my next computer. I am going to buy a barebones setup to save some time.

I normally have built my desktop computers although this time I have a fair amount of money to work with. The specs will be below please tell me what you think and if I should make any changes.

• Barebones: Shuttle SG33G5B - Intel GMA 3100 Barebone with HDMI/HDCP/Dolby Digital Live! DTS/Vista ready
• CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad Kentsfield Q6600 2.4Ghz (Will be overclocked to minimum of 2.66Ghz)
• Ram: No Specific Brand, At least 2GB
• Hard Drive: Western Digital Raptor 150GB 10,000RPM SATA
• Optical Drive: LITE-ON 20x DVD Burner

3) Donate Button

MattPippen.com now has a donate button in the left sidebar. If you like what I am doing and would like to support it as well as me please donate. I am also willing to link to you if you specify that in an email sent to me after the donation.

I can really use all the donations possible to help get my new computer which in end will help me create better content.
