November 9th, 2011 I agree with the findings of the article which follows.
We may “friend” more people on facebook or twitter or google plus, but we have fewer real life friends – the kind who would help us out in tough times, listen sympathetically in person no matter what, lend us money or give us a place to [...]
February 22nd, 2011 This website which creatively allows me to take a daily mug shot and post into a slide show was not functioning for a few months while they updated the interfaces to twitter and facebook. But now that it is completed, I am happy to report, many enjoy watching the slideshow. Here is a copy of [...]
July 28th, 2009 Ok so I took a gamble here and decided to install WIN7 RTM onto my laptop. I have been running it for 2 days. So far the speed seems almost the same as Vista…perhaps a little faster in some areas. The interface is really sleek and easy to navigate. They really did fix a lot [...]
June 30th, 2009 Best browser on the planet. Give it a try.
Best Social / IM client on the planet (for Windows)

Also added some theme changes to make the colors more appealing. I wish I could add more than 30 thumbs per post but the plugin has that limit and I cannot seem to get an email response from the programmer. I did some hacking and figured out how to get it working. Reminds me [...]

I figured why not, it appears this will be almost the final version used according to their blog so worst case, I revert back, but unlikely, since so far seems great. Only thing that didnt seem to work was media image insertion with flash player, maybe due to flash 10 update. Going to try [...]
November 17th, 2008 Good news for Firefox users who have lusted over Chrome and Safari’s option that lets you “tear” away tabs from an open window. The latest build of 3.1 offers it as a standard feature–and it works marvelously.
As in Google’s Chrome and Apple’s Safari browsers you simply pull away a tab from the interface and [...]

Added two new word press plugins so I can post and manage from the blackberry and it looks to be workin great. If I can learn to type with the tiny keyboard better
September 21st, 2008 Update: yet another new gallery. I am using Flickr embed style. I hope this is best option. A few friends gave me some tips on making my galleries display better on the blog. So after toying with several different plugins and options within wordpress , I decided that Benjamin Sterling’s plugin works perfectly. Thanks for [...]
September 12th, 2008 I thought of another consideration for depth of field context. This is when using a smaller point and shoot camera. These cameras have put photography in the hands of almost everyone who walks in public. You cannot go out without seeing a tourist pointing a camera. Thus I wanted to address how depth of field [...]
September 11th, 2008 I did the quickie upgrade process which I have down pat now for minor patch updates (2.6.x) so that all you need do is delete wp-admin , wp-includes, and main directory php files (with exception of config) and just transfer over these new files. You do not need to deactivate plugins when its an minor [...]
September 10th, 2008 A fairly simple way to determine Depth of Field (DOF) when using an SLR camera is by following some simple steps. There are three factors which determine how ‘deep’ or ‘shallow’ your photo is rendered. First is the distance between the focal plane(camera) and the subject. If you are close to the subject, say a [...]
September 9th, 2008 There have been some recent changes to the big providers of wifi hotspots, those which are not free. So here is an update with all currently available wifi options in the USA. I currently use TMobile which provided hotspots at all Starbucks, Borders, Fed Ex Kinkos, and some hotels and airports. However Starbucks decided to [...]
August 22nd, 2008 It works way better than an iPhone and has all same functions. I am not sure about the whole 3G thing and if it would be faster than EDGE network…but who cares really…works just fine for me. And I really do not need a fancy touch screen. The crackberry is more proven technology too. [...]

My life seems to be waiting for this and waiting for that lately. I guess that is okay with me. Still nothing new on medical front. I am slowly recovering but have no news about malpractice suit yet. I should have my records by end of this week so I can submit them to [...]

This went fairly smoothly. Delete a few folders, upload, reactivate a few plugins. Done.
May 8th, 2008 Get Firefox 3 RC1 with the following link: RC1 of FF3
I just love this browser. Its fast, sleek, and totally customizable. These addons are most useful:
Adblock Plus Download Statusbar Del.ic.ious Bookmarks 2.x Beta NOTE: The above link is the installation file so be careful to only click if you want this. Shareaholic

April 16th, 2008 About Twitter
What is it? Twitter is a service for friends, family, and co–workers to communicate and stay connected through the exchange of quick, frequent answers to one simple question: What are you doing? Bloggers can use it as a mini-blogging tool. Developers can use the API to make Twitter tools of their own. Possibilities are [...]

My Ipod died again, second one to have a hdd go bad. So I said I am not spending a fortune this time. I went to the best buy and the girl was nice and helped me pick out a nice new hot pink, yes, sansa. It has 2gb capacity and I added a [...]

An old fav photo of April Showers
This browser rocks. Its new name is Minefield. I know that I waffle and change daily but this has some nice performance enhancements. If you want to get your hands on the beta either visit : http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-beta.html for beta 4 or if you feel daring, just [...]
