Today I learned how to use Picasa to make a video for youtube.com
I called my sister in Guadalajara, just before she went to bed and she quickly gave me steps to make and upload the video, select the music and step away from the computer, c'est fini. Watch it here, my day selling in the park, one woman show at Tohono Chul Park here in Tucson.
