Building to Something Big
So, I’ve been silent on here for quite some time. I haven’t been completely devoid of the Internet, but I’ve been working on something big. So, if asked “What have you been doing lately?”, my answer would be “learning”. I … Continue reading

On a Quest for a Universal Remote
It is time to simplify things a little. I am on a quest for a universal remote. This is the assortment I currently use on a daily basis, and it is driving my six year old absolutely crazy. That’s not … Continue reading

BMW Efficient Dynamics
That is a mean looking automobile. I’m all for green, but I don’t want my car to look like a go-cart either. This kind of aggressive design is going to make me want to go hybrid someday.
Lifestream Plugin
I just implemented an awesome plugin that keeps track of all your social junk in one place. If you look to the right, there is a link to my Lifestream page. So far, I’ve added twitter, youtube, flickr, jaiku, brightkite, … Continue reading
Adventures in GPS
I have been in need of a new GPS receiver for a while. While I love my Garmin eTrex and it has been a lifesaver on several occasions, the netbook lacks serial ports. Carrying a serial to USB adapter is out of the question. I wanted ultra-portability for my kit, especially on vacations and while [...] Continue reading

After The Fact?

Each one had an inconsistent version of the packages on it, and I finally decided this morning I was done upgrading each machine individually and downloading updates when I got around to it. Mikey’s got his own repo now and Mikey likes [...] Continue reading

More AA1 Tweaking
Okay, so the Acer Aspire One now has a nickname of AA1. I kind of like it, so we’ll see if it sticks. I received my own Acer netbook for my birthday and am in the process of tweaking it to my satisfaction. My biggest annoyance so far has been the lack of codec support [...] Continue reading
Acer Aspire One
Acer recently released the Aspire One. My wife was looking for a laptop to check email and visit her forums while on the road. The tech details were GMail and phpBB, for those interested. We met at MicroCenter after work to look at netbooks on her birthday. I will not criticize Asus. They have made [...] Continue reading
