The Gboard Google Keyboard Mini Series
In this Mini Series, we take a look at the Google Keyboard Gboard. This series was born out of the simple idea how when I type I hit the emoji key by accident - I went looking for a solution and in the process found a whole interesting bag full of nice surprises.

The Zoom H2n Mini Series
Having purchased a new Zoom H2n on the 11 July 2018, it's now been 30 days of learning and testing. Here's a small mini series with plenty of examples - four videos with total play time of 25 minutes.
The Zoom H2n as a model was launched in 2011, so not a new item at all - yet I would say an ESSENTIAL device if you are passionate about audio recording.
Of course if you follow this blog and my youtube channel, you will have seen I bought a Zoom H1 in 2013. And a lot of audio for me has been recording with my Moto G4 inbuilt microphone.
There are a few more paragraphs and links at the bottom of each video.

YouTube Hashtags at Video Search
Hashtags at YouTube have been around for a long while - yet what's new, how to add a hashtag into a title or description text and have those hashtags appear above the title.
Used in moderation quite useful, so what's the best way? I am leaning towards a three step approach
- channel name #themikedownespage
- subject, topic like #GoogleEarth
- subtitle like #Measure
Edit Fri 27 July 18 - Rules..
1, if hashtag(s) in title, then TITLE ONLY
2, if title and text description then TITLE ONLY
3, if no title, hashtag(s) in text description then ABOVE TITLE ONLY
therefore hashtags cannot be in both TITLE and ABOVE TITLE (?)

This is a new series on video making education. We take a recent video and talk about how it's made. We look for clues that made it effective and watchable. We then take these lessons and use them to make better videos ourselves.
