Well, I’ve installed a few more programs and made sure that I’ve configured most of my hardware with updated drivers. I started creating an image file about 5 hours ago, and it looks like it will take another 4 hours. It looks like my Windows XP partition is around 18 Gigs. With all of the […]

Another Reload
As I’ve done many times before, I’ve reloaded my PC. I’ve got the original Windows XP Home Edition loaded, most of my software loaded, my iPod synchronizing, my network printers working, and I’m pretty comfortable with this load. I would create an image file of the load, but it would be about 14 Gigs and […]
TGIF
I feel like I’ve been struggling to get through this week. It feels good to sit down tonight and know I don’t have to get up at 7 tomorrow. I’ve been doing backups of my TV recordings and cleaning up my hard drive. It feels really good to have a clean workspace. I think I’m […]
My Flickr Photos
I have spent hours of the past few days uploading all of my pictures to my account on Flickr. A friend from work gave me a pro account on Flickr. When Yahoo bought Flickr, the people who had pro accounts on Flickr were given 2 free pro accounts to give away to friends. I uploaded […]
Google Moon
I don’t know if you’ve heard of Google Earth, but they’ve come up with a Google Moon. The creative people at Google have added some images to the map of the moon using some pretty liberal creativity. For those that are interested in seeing some detailed views of the moon’s surface, zoom in as far […]
WinFS
According to this, Microsoft has decided to go ahead and put WinFS out there. The file system is intended to make searching and keeping track of documents a cinch with instant search results through constantly updated indexing. The thing is, Google Desktop Search achieves these quick results already. Apparently the Desktop Search program made so […]
Site Design
I have the site finished for the most part. I have a little editing to do here and there, but it looks a lot cleaner than the previous design. Now I just have to finish working on the BAPCS design.
Feedback Form
I have been trying to figure out how to get a web site to send me an email without using Frontpage extensions, or having to pay for a service to do it for some time now. I’ve finally found a way to do it. I didn’t use their directions exactly because every site is different, […]
Free Internet Calling
The concept of talking online for free has been around for quite some time. I remember 4 to 5 years ago, using one of the instant messenger services to talk to my parents instead of using long distance. It was pretty bad because we were both using dial-up service. It was kinda like talking to […]
Google Desktop
Wow! Google has outdone themselves here. The ability to fit everything they did into such a nice little package is absolutely spectacular. It’s a little buggy visually when you try to minimize and then maximize, but it works well otherwise. Of course I’m using it currently on a Celeron Processor with only 32MB of video […]
