My iPod has new features!

16 Aug, 2005

Not sure when they showed up, but my iPod has some new features. On my way to San Jose I realized that under the Settings menu there is a Main Menu area where I can turn on or off what options show on the main menu and what options don’t. This is fun because my […]

Flickr & Yahoo Merge

15 Aug, 2005

I just merged my Yahoo account and Flickr account. What’s that mean? Now my Yahoo ID is my login and password for Flickr and that’s about all. Or so I’ve seen so far.

Photo Galleries

14 Aug, 2005

I’ve added a plug-in so that I can upload some of my images from Search Engine Strategies and other events. This is just a test so that I can learn how it works. If it’s successful, I’ll get more images up later in the week.

GoogleDance 2005

10 Aug, 2005

It was my first GoogleDance and it sure was a lot of fun. Google gave us free pop, water, beer and wine to drink. There was everything from hot dogs to shrimp, soft pretzels, beer nuts and some cheesy potatoes to eat. For desert you could grab a root beer float, cookies, bars or Cold […]

Multiple Virtual Desktops

29 Jul, 2005

Inspired by a post over at The Unofficial Apple Weblog I decided to check out a virtual desktop application called Desktop Manager. And I’m glad I did. Now it’s a little hard to explain, as I found out when trying to tell a friend, but I’ll try. You basically get to take your desktop and […]

Konfabulator is Free!

25 Jul, 2005

Before Apple’s Dashboard was a little program called Konfabulator. Konfabulator works on your desktop and can do anything Dashboard can do. The only problem as that Konfabulator wasn’t free. Now it is. Yahoo has bought Konfabulator and will be distributing it on Mac and PC for free! Not sure Yahoo’s goal here, however it’s Yahoo […]

Ivana Trump Las Vegas

23 Jul, 2005

Ivana is coming to Las Vegas. Ivana Trump, Donald’s ex-wife, is building the tallest skyscraper west of the Mississippi and plans to have it open in 2008. At 923 feet tall it may outshine the Stratosphere. By looking at the rendering above, it makes the Stratosphere look oftly small. The Donald’s ex-wife is going to […]

Logitech Mice Rock

18 Jul, 2005

It’s only been a few hours today with my Logitech MX 310 mouse and I’m loving every moment of it. I picked it up on eBay for like $3 and it doesn’t disappoint. I’ve never had any issues with Logitech products and I’d recommend them to anyone. It has six buttons, but only one extra […]
