Matthew Murdoch's Marketing Mashup

I have a friend, Curtis Morley, who knows everything. He's a total braniac. I called him the other day about how to compress a .wmv9 video to a .mov. Within a couple of minutes he had a recommendation - FFMPEG. He also had a recommendation on how to navigate around the MIT-stumping installation instructions. He said he'd post these instructions in the near future.

I joked with my wife yesterday that if I knew 10% of what Curtis knows I'd be a genius.

Thanks Curtis!
