So, I’m browsing the downloadable content on my TiVo and see free downloads to NBC pilots. I click through and grab about 5 (including Journeyman, which I’m thinking ought to turn out pretty good). How easy was it? It took literally less than 1 minute to select the shows. Then, they were on my TiVo…
I knew I bought my Nokia E61i for a reason. I was expecting the included Wi-Fi to be a nice bonus, but now I’m really feeling the potential. Enter Trufone (www.trufone.com) and Gizmo VOIP (www.gizmovoip.com). These little gems of software load up almost effortlessly to my Nokia Smartphone (Symbian OS). I can now call anywhere…
It’s funny how this blog gets inspiration. My previous post about Google Analytics came from a referral from my brother-in-law. Well, this post comes from a referral I made back to him just a few days later. If you have a digital camera, you’ll want to try out Picasa (also owned by Google). Go to…
So, I run pretty decent statistics packages on my servers. You can get unique visitors and overall hits, average hits, etc. But, that’s always been a bit vague to me. I always wanted to know what’s happening to a certain page . . . . . . and in walks Google. I had heard of…
OK, so I wanted a way to sell my group’s music via download, but didn’t have the time (or clout) to grind the iTunes machine. Well, now there’s E-Junkie. Now all I have to do is upload my music to their secure servers and viola, I can connect through my Paypal account. The beauty is…
Alison (my wife) always tells me I have an amazing way of talking myself out of purchases. Now, this mainly pertains to clothing (I’m in my standard jeans and t-shirt as I write this). However, when it comes to electronics and gadgets, I’m extra cautious – although you couldn’t tell by my gadget to clothing…
If you’re not sure whether the iPhone is legit or not. Try the link below. It’ll take you 20 minutes, but it’s alot of goooooood press! http://www.apple.com/iphone/usingiphone/guidedtour.html UPDATE [06/30] Wow . . . yeah, it’s that slick (looking anyway). I just got back from the Cingular . . . er AT&T store and tested the…
Here’s a quick tip you might not know. I know, you probably do . . . but if not, it’s super helpful. I was chatting with a couple of friends after church Sunday night. One mentioned he needed a super-expensive data plan to send emails from his Treo. I said, “Just send it as a…
I wrote earlier this year about the EMI Record company releasing non-DRM songs and albums to iTunes. Well, it’s in full effect and many other labels are taking part. To learn about that, click here. I was excited, then not excited. I was glad to hear that the files would not be copy protected, but…
I had an old Pentium II 450 MHz desktop just sitting in the attic. I thought I’d fire it up and take a trip down memory lane to Windows 98. Well, all I got was a background image and it didn’t move on from there. So, I thought it was time for a clean start.…
