I RESHOT MY WEEKLY QIK summary of the Irish Sunday papers because Take One stumbled six minutes into the recording. It's an unususal day when I encounter a snag with Qik, something I can write with confidence after uploading more than 800 Qik clips. I showed workshop attendees at yesterday's ICT in Education Conference [#ictedu10] how to make a Qik clip and I deliberately dropped my Nokia E90 on a table to demonstrate how durable the handset has proven over the past three years. Now I think I might have actually damaged the phone (or its five times dropped to pavements have finally called time on its daily use). I'm keeping both clips up so I can talk with Qik about what I might have done wrong.
