recordMyDesktop is a desktop session recorder for linux that attemps to be easy to use, yet also effective at it’s primary task. As such, the program is separated in two parts; a simple command line tool that performs the basic tasks of capturing and encoding and an interface that exposes the program functionality in a usable way.

The commandline tool (which essentially is recordMyDesktop), is written in C, while there are two frontends ,written in python with pyGtk (gtk-recordMyDesktop) and pyQt4 (qt-recordMyDesktop). recordMyDesktop offers also the ability to record audio, along with video, without the need of any later proccesing or mixing.

Having storm chasers from Oklahoma, show up in town, tends to be a little disconcerting. They were interviewed in Regina earlier in the day and it seems like their long drive wasn’t in vain.

This morning on their site, is this video of the massive tornado that spawned from the storm that went through southeast Saskatchewan and into Manitoba yesterday.

They don’t say where in Manitoba this twister was, but it’s not too far from where an F4 tornado touched down Friday.
