Sync iCal and Google Calendar for Free. Plus Outlook and Yahoo.

  • 28 Jun, 2007

For quite a while now I’ve been looking for a solution to sync iCal and Google Calender. I’ve even though of giving up on iCal and using Gcal.app (an application) full time. However Plaxo 3 was released the other day and it syncs calendars for free. Running a few tests, it indeed does sync my […]

Weather Photos – Waconia MN 06-20-07

  • 21 Jun, 2007

Yesterday, severe storms ran across the area and prompted tornado warnings for us. I was actually out watching these storms roll in as the sirens sounded. No tornadoes, but some brief decent sized hail, lots of pea sized hail and some rain and wind did come out of them. [images lost]

It may be time for a new mouse, what do you suggest?

  • 15 Jun, 2007

My Mighty Mouse is again refusing to scroll down. It happens every now and then when it gets dirty from over use. I have cleaned it a time or two in the past and it worked fine. But now I can’t get it clean enough to scroll down and that’s really bugging me. I’ve gone […]

Lost My Marbles – Upgraded to WordPress 2.2

  • 12 Jun, 2007

I’ve been wanting to upgrade Blog on a Stick to WordPress 2.2 for so long. But there have always been so many un-answered questions. Ok, one one main one; “Will Ultimate Tag Warrior convert over properly?” Without a defiant answer, I wouldn’t upgrade. Until tonight. I’m not sure why, but I was in a crazy […]

Trying my hand at a Thunderbird theme.

  • 9 Jun, 2007

Just a few days ago I came across Vitae, an amazing Shapeshifter theme. Since I got my new iMac, I haven’t installed Shapeshifter or even thought twice about themes, but now I wanted it. I searched for my serial number and got it installed and it was beautiful. It really is worth a check-out. Then […]

GoDaddy RegisterFly Scam?

  • 31 May, 2007

Talk about fishy, I just got an email from GoDaddy saying they already transferred my RegisterFly domain(s) and created an account for me. What the???? First off, I don’t use GoDaddy nor do I want to. Nothing against it, but it’s just not for me. Second, how did they get my email? It’s not one […]

Seven things I learned from my trip to St Louis.

  • 29 May, 2007

Hank, my sister in-laws dog, is almost bigger than I am. I’m told he’s small for a Great Dane though. I can make ringtones in Garage Band. However, my phone doesn’t recognize mp3 files as ring tones. It does recognize ACC files, but I can’t get one of ‘My Sounds’ on my phone to be […]

On the Mac, there are some fantastic applications that are completely free. Here is a list of what I believe to be some of the best I’ve found so far. Adium – The all in one, completely customizable instant messaging program. It absolutely rocks! AOL Radio – I love this because I can get nearly […]

Now Twittering & Tumbling

  • 19 May, 2007

I’m now on Twitter and Tumblr and checking them out. I actually signed up for Twitter a long time ago, but never used it. It’s like IM only to a wider audience or so I understand. I don’t really see the point. However, I do have cool Firefox extension that makes Twittering soooo easy. Now […]

Flashback – 8Track & Record Player

  • 13 May, 2007

While at the in-laws over the weekend we discovered the original boombox; an 8Track, record player and radio all in one. // Image lost. Sorry. Zooomr ate it. // We even had a couple stacks of old Barbra Streisand, Barry Manilow and other older artists records. The sad part was that the needle was broken […]
