After a couple of the busiest (and most productive) weeks ever… I return with an OS X Panther rant. 1. Why do I click an plus (+) icon to shrink iTunes? I’ve been using iTunes for months now and it still gets me every once in awhile. It’s no better from the menu–it’s Window > […]

Teaching Dreamweaver
Well… that was an experience. I spent most of the evening yesterday finalizing my lesson, which was why I missed a day on the weblog for the first time in about 70 days, and finally got it to a point I felt good about. Teaching went fairly well. I know Dreamweaver like the back of […]
Mepis Linux
It’s been a couple months since I had Linux (that’s GNU/Linux for you diehards) on the desktop and even when I did I never really used it. The time has come to do it again, this time with a real, practical purpose. I chose Mepis because it’s based on Debian which, if you’re not familiar […]
Software Discoveries
Tonight I disovered (and in a couple of cases, rediscovered) a few interesting and useful pieces of software. 1. Synergy – This is free software that lets you use one keyboard and mouse for multiple computers and even across different operating systems. It works great! I’ve only tired it from windows to windows so far. […]
More Art Rage Painting
I continue to be impressed with ArtRage, the free painting program from Ambient Design Ltd. This is my latest creation. It’s a Modigliani copy (this time no tracing). The original painting is appropriately titled “Girl with Brown Hair.” As you can tell… I’m not a painter, but the point is that the software is good, […]
Smart Sites
These are linked to everywhere already, but since I think they show a possible trend in future software/AI, here they are. Smart Sites. They aren’t amazing, but they have open ended input and try to react no matter what you type. It’s not a new concept, but with more powerful computers and people with more […]
Restarting OS X
I have a question. If OS X is Unix-like, why does it have to be restarted almost every time I do a software update? I have a Linux server (also Unix-like) that has been up for hundreds of days at a time without having to be restarted for fairly major updates including updating PHP, Apache, […]
Professor Vorwaller
That’s right and class is in session… well, almost. I’ve begun preparation and will soon commence teaching Dreamweaver MX 2004 classes all day, one day a week, three weeks of the month every other month. Prepare to be illuminated as I log my first experience as an ‘official’ teacher.
Skateboards and Such
Just to prove that my my entire world is not things digital, check out the review I did of the Insect Skateboads Dragonfly on Silverfish Longboarding.
How to Lose Your Bookmarks
Looking for a quick way to lose all your Firefox bookmarks, saved passwords, history and preferences? Just download a nightly build and install it without backing everything up first. *Poof* You’re starting afresh. I did it today–I should have known better and backed up my profile folder, but now that everything’s gone, it’s actually kind […]
