Happy birthday to Opera! What’s Opera? It’s another web browser. Often overlooked but quite popular. It’s another alternative to IE. The only downside is the ads. Eww Ads.

Smiley Central

  • 28 Aug, 2005

Are you obsessed with smilies? Well Smiley Central can help feed your addiction. While I was out at SES, the Ask people mentioned Smiley Central because it’s one of their projects. Now I wouldn’t usually trust something like this, but since it came from the Ask Jeeves company, I felt at ease. I got Christi […]

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. […]

I’m on Google IM

  • 23 Aug, 2005

Yep, the details are out there. I just logged into my Gmail/Google IM account. I used Jabber though iChat and it worked just fine! I tried in Adium but had no luck for some reason. I’m sure I had a typo somewhere. For instructions on how to get into your Google IM account just go […]

Google & MSN Flash Earth

  • 23 Aug, 2005

I can see my parents house from here! 😮 With each search engine trying to out do each other they are creating great products. But leave it to the users to make them even better. For example, Flash Earth. Flash Earth takes information from Google & MSN satellite maps and allows the user to smoothly […]

Where is Carmen Sandiego

  • 22 Aug, 2005

That illusive lady from when I was a kit is still on the loose. Carmen Sandiego is still running ramped somewhere. A better question than where is the world (or US, time, universe) is Carmen Sandiego is what did Carmen Sandiego do? Why am I chasing her? Who tricked me into spending so much time […]

Flock – Social Web Browsing?

  • 18 Aug, 2005

Now I read the blurb about Flock the other day. Seems like it’s supposed to be a social web browser. You connect with family and friends and share you experience. Then again, I read that it’s more of a blog thing? I’m not sure. Sounds cool, whatever it is. Social blogging rss browser thing based […]

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 […]

Google iTunes Music Store

  • 14 Aug, 2005

It’s still a rumor, but a big rumor. Could Google and Apple be partnering for a web version of the iTunes Music Store? How cool would that be?! Not sure the reasoning behind it, however it could allow Apple to drop support for older operating systems and still have the store available via the web. […]

Switching to PC…

  • 7 Aug, 2005

… but not for long. As I’m in San Jose this week for Search Engine Strategies, I’m using a PC to keep up on work and stay connected to the world. Can one live without email? 😉 So far my PC experience has been well. I’m on Windows 2000 and it’s an older machine but […]
