Wordle - Revit and getting side tracked on Twitter

You know some times I feel like I live under a Rock!!... Or maybe it's that I'm too busy and some things get past me.


I've had to drop Twitter because of this, while at the RTC Conference there was a lot of twittering going on both during the sessions and afterwards.... sometimes I prefer to focus on one output or the medium and be able to absorb the information a little better rather than try and keep up with everything... That's just my preference and my method, there are other methods that work equally well or if not better which include Twitter....


Anyway.... I digress. I was intending to write a brief blog about Wordle...
Wordle has been around for quite some time but I haven't had time or the inclination to look into it further.. until now.


I saw a Wordle during one of the sessions at RTC and this has resparked my interest....


It's sooo easy! I went to http://www.wordle.net/ typed in my Blog address and it came up with some beautiful Wordles!


Here are some of the Wordles that were created from words taken from my blog... such as Revit, Families, Architecture, etc...

This is awesome.... I just need to figure out where else I can use this!!!

Update drivers

When installing Revit 2013 don't forget to update your video card driver.

We ran into an weird issue where windows in the background were projecting through the model... It ended up being a graphics card driver issue.....

So as part of the process of installing of Revit 2013 include updating you video card driver...

Revit 2013 What's new

No point in me re-creating the wheel.... there are so many blogs out there now on the new products it's amazing.... and difficult to filter through...!

I watched the Autodesk media summit earlier today which was quite interesting, it was a general overview of Autodesk direction some new features etc... nothing too specific. I would imagin there would be WAY too much to pack in if they went into too much detail.

David Light has done an excellent job of summarising what's new with Revit 2013 and I highly recommend you visit his site to see what's new.

I will probably start blogging about the new features as soon as I get the software (probably by mid April)...

For those of you who will be attending my BIM User Group meeting on the 4th of April, we'll be going over the new features of Revit (Architecture, MEP and Structure).

Enjoy!
