New iPod First Thoughts

30 Sep, 2005

Well I’ve had Chester, my new iPod, for over a week now and I haven’t gotten to play with him much. My old iPod is working just fine and my new iTrip hasn’t arrived just yet. However, here are my current issues with the iPod. First, Apple cuts costs by packing the iPod with a […]

Google Video Goes Flash

26 Sep, 2005

Finally, Google Video has gone Flash! No more downloading the Google Video player (PC only) or worrying about the video being in windows media format, or avi, or mpg, or real or whatever. Now it should all be in Flash and it should just work. Granted the downside is that the quality is probably less […]

Hello Chester – My new iPod

26 Sep, 2005

I was all excited the other day when it arrived. My new iPod. 20 gigs, full color screen and best of all it was free! I think I’ll call him Chester.I did one of those free iPod deals after researching it to make sure I wasn’t going to get screwed over. And it worked! All […]

Charamel Best Firefox & Thunderbird Theme

22 Sep, 2005

I try and check out all the themes for Firefox and Thunderbird that I can, however only one has ever really impressed me. That theme is Charamel. This theme has had a lot of work put into it and it’s absolutely beautiful. Everything works together and it’s a joy to use. There are even elements […]

Nvu I want to use you.

21 Sep, 2005

Nvu is yet another spawn of the Mozilla family. This time, non-Mozilla employees ripped out Composer, the HTML editor that can be found in the Mozilla Suite. They then re-worked it into a stand alone application called Nvu. Now I was all excited to hear about this project. How could it be bad? Well I’ve […]

Camino’s cool, but…

16 Sep, 2005

I downloaded the latest release of Camino yesterday by accident. (I clicked on a link and it started downloading.) Anyways, it’s a sweet little browser. Light weight, fast, looks great and all around nice to use. However, without spell check, it hardly gets used on my computer. The developers know that spell check is wanted, […]

iPod nano Mini Review

10 Sep, 2005

We stopped by the Mall of America today and I had to go into the Apple store. The iPod nano was on my must see list. My impression? It was amazing! It was tiny, fast, beautiful and I didn’t want to put it down. This little device is speedy, full of features and an amazing […]

Opera Mac Mini Review

6 Sep, 2005

The other day was Opera’s birthday and to celebrate they gave out free licenses. First off, if you have to pay for a web browser, it better be darn good. After some testing and general web usage, I’ve come to think that it’s just OK. It’s very streamlined and visually appealing. Plus there are many […]

Google Talk Help Needed

24 Aug, 2005

Update: So it seems that you need to authorize any buddies before talking with them. Seems that if you were to go from Adium to Adium using Google Talk it wouldn’t work. However if you go from Google Talk to Adium you get an authorization window and then it works. Or something screwy like that. […]
