Where do you store your photos
After a few hard drive failures and some data loss. You really begin to think about your data. In particular I really am worried about my digital photos. I have told all my family members to make sure that they backup at least their photos. Unlike the old days of printed photo albums our new digital photos can be lost, hard …
What OS do you run
For years you had a only one option for an OS on your computer, Windows. Well there have been some exceptions over the years (Unix, OS2, vax, etc..) but for your typical user it was just Windows. Machines ordered (dell, hp, etc…) all came with windows. This has changed in the last 3-4 years, people are starting to realize that there …
National Treasure – spout.com
I just watched national treasure again and realized how much I liked that movie – read about it on spout (National Treasure). While watching the film they were promoting the new National Treasure 2 (National treasure – Book of Secrets) I am actually excited to see this movie.
Input Devices
Since I have been using my Thinkpad more frequently at home for coding and any work while at home. I realized how much I love the Thinkpad trackpoint (red dot – eraser thing). What a great layout, I am much more efficient with that then the Dell version (Latitude D820). To make switching easier I went out and purchased a new …

It’s always great to see your software on other sites. Here is a link to download iisreporter from www.iis.net http://www.iis.net/downloads/default.aspx?tabid=34&g=6&i=1372 At one time it was a featured download
Live CD
I keep thinking of all the live CD’s I’ve used I like the Bart PE version the best. It is a familure windows view, runs all the windows tools (ad aware, search bot destroy, filerestore, perm delete). I just can’t figure out why the other Live CD’s I’ve tried did not work as well. I know all the linux tools, I’ve …
WordPress upgrade

Tools I use online
Every day you hear of people using online tools, word processing, lists, etc… Well I figure I should share what I use. My favorite items. 1. Tadalist – tadalist.com – I keep my daily todo up there to reference any where I am. They give you a direct link username.tadalist.com 2. Google Docs – docs.google.com – I am not saying that this …
Comcast and bandwidth
I just read this post. I am guessing it is a hoax but I think it is funny / interesting. Bandwidth Article
Cellphone – PDA – SmartPhone
I currently use the Samsung Blackjack from ATT. I really do like this phone but have a few issues with the technology. For some reason Samsung decided not to use a standart USB plug to charge the phone, they have their own connector. Also, they decided that you can’t charge the phone using usb power unless you are 1. hooked to …
Windows Home server
Don’t think I’m going to purchase this one. I’m not sure why someone would need another server in their home. I like the idea but I think they are missing some features. Why couldn’t I just use linux? Or my old XP system to do the same thing. http://gizmodo.com/gadgets/windows-home-server/windows-home-server-review-317502.php
Bandwidth allocation
Here is another story related to bandwidth shaping from the major ISP’s. I like the authors arguments and stance, we really do not know what our ISP (comcast, att, verizon) are doing with our traffic. We sign up for DSL and Cable under the assumption that we will get our 4 megabits of bandwidth. At some level we probably do, from …
