I’m an on-again-off-again fan of John C. Dvorak. I regularly listen to TWiT and CrankyGeeks and Tech5 podcasts that he’s on regularly. Sometimes he offends me, but every time he at least makes me think a little harder about a topic.
I came across this recent column, Turn Off the Lights! of his in PC […]

Facebook is one of those websites I’ve been trying to manage my time on lately. Between Facebook and Twitter, there’s a battle for which one will remain open the longest on my screen.
Now Facebook has added a new feature that may make it even more difficult to turn it off. They now have embedded […]

I had originally planned on being a high school biology teacher when I was pursuing my college education. I loved everything about biology, it was the chemistry that bugged me.
Remember your grade school biology class the first time you got to dissect a frog? My fondest memory is that we knocked the frog out […]

The last few times I’ve tried to update my iPod with iTunes I’ve gotten the following error.
Is it dead? I’ve done a few restores and resets and can’t get it to sync. Although on one hand I’d welcome the need to buy a new 160GB version. On the other hand, I don’t have the […]

Does anyone know if there’s any way to subscribe to a podcast with iTunes when the podcast doesn’t exist in the iTunes store?
Can I manually subscribe to a URL of the XML feed somehow?
If anyone out there knows the answer to this question, please let me know quick before I forget what podcast I’m trying […]

I’ve been a die-hard fan of the software SnagIt for a couple of years now. I use it so much I’m at the point now where I’d probably go crazy if I didn’t have it available. However, after hearing about feedback from people who have used Skitch.com to grab screen capture, it might push me […]

Google isn’t the most powerful player in town. They’re afraid of someone. They have to look over their shoulder. But who is it? Microsoft? Nope! Yahoo! Nope. The government? No again.
It’s Chuck Norris! They don’t even search for him anymore because they know he’s always there anyway, right behind them. Always waiting. Always watching.
Don’t […]

I uncovered this little gem of a post while reading an Issue #319 of the WXPNews e-mail newsletter. Their newsletter always includes a list of their “Fav Links”. This week one was included of another blog post that listed some domain names that have some unintended meanings if you rearrange the break in words […]
