This is something I have been thinking about for a while, and the truth is that I have some random thoughts about this, so it’s going to be hard for me to make a cohesive post.
As I start this post its 8am here in Portland. I have been up since 5:30AM. Its Saturday [...]
I found the International Geek Song on several sites in the last couple days. I have watched it dozens of times and I think its right near the funniest thing I have ever seen. I thought my wife would really enjoy this, because she likes to make fun of me pretty regularly.
She [...]
I am pretty sure most everybody knows about the WayBack machine on Archive.org but I felt like making sure. A question came up on the MMUG mailing list today that made me think of this site. Although no longer indexing sites, the way back machine took snap shots of web sites for the [...]
I am back from San Francisco (more on that later) and I am getting all caught up on the news. In my JDJ newsletter I saw this article about Sun opening up a location in Hillsborro. Portland is often called the Silcon Forest beccause of the high concentration of Tech companies here.
While I was sitting here waiting for my plane this morning, I was
very excited to see that the pdx airport has free internet
access. I think this is an amazing contribution. I think
this really shows that the port of portland understands that the
"silicon forest" that is our home, embraces new technologies.
I dont travel alot, but in [...]
I love Firefox. I think its a great browser and I plug it
anywhere I can. But a group of students from OSU did a little
project to raise awareness (and I am sure waste some time). I
think you will like it.
I am willing to bet this may be the largest firefox logo yet created!
I found this fun little survey
today. Its a quick survey of about 20 zany questions, which if
answered honestly will predict the computer OS your personality most
resembles.
Take a minute to fill it out. You might find something out! :)
But if you are not in the mood and just want to see what the outcome
could be, click [...]
I have never used craigs list before. I knew what it was, but
have not had an occassion to buy or sell much. Today I visited
the groups section of the site to post an announcement of our upcoming
PDX CFUG Meeting feature Spike of the CFEclipse project. While
posting I noticed a checkbox which opted this message in [...]
A break, a laugh, whatever. And I have found that I can always count on bash.org to provide that release that I need.
Bash.org is a site that people can post funny transcripts from irc chats to. A formal warning: Some quotes may not be work appropriate, nor kid safe!
But by the time I [...]
I will be the first to admit that I have fully jumped on the google bandwagon. I read google news, use gmail, enjoy the google maps and other serives. When I think web search I type google.com
But that was not always the case. When I started doing web work my world revolved around Yahoo! [...]
