Testing BlogJet

I have installed an interesting application – BlogJet. It’s a cool Windows client for my blog tool (as well as for other tools).   It has MSN-like smiley’s, which are amusing .  Get your copy here: http://blogjet.com *UPDATE* The smiley’s are cool, but it’s good to know that they’re just images and probably need to be… Continue reading Testing BlogJet

Good Friends, Drew and Batinna

Some good friends of mine, Drew and [Ba]Tin[n]a, just had a baby. They already have a boy – eight or nine I think – so they’re not new at this, just rusty. The girl was born by force Monday. She’s 7lb some-odd ounces (pretty much a perfect weight). Drew, in his sleep-deprived state, has either… Continue reading Good Friends, Drew and Batinna

Canon EOS 20D

My wife just picked up a new camera – digital for once. She’s generally opposed to the medium, but I think the competition and my bantering are finally winning her over. The issue, of course, is that she’s a medium-format user and digital cameras are oft-not capable of reproducing images of this caliber. There are… Continue reading Canon EOS 20D

Orkut.com Media: Cure for a Political Hangover

Another good read on Orkut’s new Media section. This one by Mark Ganek on political satire. I’m not the type, but I found this to be profound and entertaining. Ganek beats about the head and shoulders societal tendencies to muck-rake on differences of political party. Though, as seen in his humorous article, it’s hard not… Continue reading Orkut.com Media: Cure for a Political Hangover

MS-DOS 7.10

Now this is a good time! In case FreeDOS wasn’t cool enough for you, now you can get back to the original. I’m digging the 9MB bootable CD w/extra enhancements and a full installer.

Master Chief

We have Master Chief from Halo floating around the team area at work. He’s brilliantly posable, but alas, I don’t believe they’re for sale. This model is apparently supposed to be a marketing model (paraphernalia). Nonetheless, we’re anticipating seeing more of him with the release of Halo 2 soon.

SpaceShipOne Wins $10 Million Ansari X Prize in Historic 2nd Trip to Space

This day in history! SpaceShipOne reaches a height exceeding the requirements for the Ansari X prize. This achievment is said to be the door to spaceward tourism, though I’m not as concerned about that. I would certainly enjoy a flight to space, but I’m guessing the price is a bit steep at the moment. We… Continue reading SpaceShipOne Wins $10 Million Ansari X Prize in Historic 2nd Trip to Space

A Digitally Revolutionized Legacy

In association to an article at darrenbarefoot.com, I was reminded of a topic I’ve brought up before (with little success in exciting anyone). We’re beginning a new era of the “Digitally Revolutionized Legacy,” but it’s not us – Generation X – as first thought. No, the new era starts with our children. I would say… Continue reading A Digitally Revolutionized Legacy

Win XP Starter Edition Images

NeoWin.net informs us of a new edition of Windows XP (though I’m certain there were other more official sources), the Starter Edition (SE). SE is an ambiguous cloud of hype that many industries implore. It could be anything from “Second Edition” to “Special Edition” or “Sales Executive.” By maintaining the “SE” non-clarification however, a company… Continue reading Win XP Starter Edition Images
