I shot a bunch of video last weekend while camping out with the Mister and family in Wisconsin. Since my fancy Mac + editing software (also entire Microsoft editing suite) went back to my former employers, I consulted Wired Journalists to see where to acquire the basics online.
Audacity it is for audio. Looks pretty standard so far. Good plug-ins to convert files to mp3’s. OpenOffice for writing and (finally!) building databases. Love that it’s the MySql peoples behind it all.
There’s no excuse now. All this software was free and easily downloaded. Armed with an Excel substitute and a way to play with sound, I feel more powerful already.
