Flickr Scout

Stumbled upon a new tool today: Flickr Scout by flagrantdisregard.com. Basically it will show you if any of your photos have ever been in the the top 500

Blockhead

Today I had a chance to play around with a customer’s MacBook Pro. Supposedly it had been giving them electric shocks, something I was unable to reproduce. In the process of testing, I messed around with Photo Booth and came out with this. I think it makes me look like Tom […]

New Toy: HP R817

My new toy is an HP R817 camera. There aren’t really any pictures that I’m confident enough to show off yet, but you can see a picture of Molly sticking her tongue out at my Flickr page.

Mactracker

Occasionally I find myself working with a Mac owner who is not near their computer, and can give me little more then a processor class and a physical description of the machine itself. Enter Mactracker. It’s a nifty little tool with all sorts of information on every Apple, Motorola, PowerComputing, and UMAX […]

Harrionette Miers

The image above, much like my photoshop skills, is far from perfect. The idea for the picture came to me while chatting with my boss yesterday, so rather then get a full night’s sleep, I created it using the trial version of Photoshop CS2. In the spirit of full disclosure, I know very […]

OMFG! Nintendo Revolution Controller!

When I first saw this picture, I was worried. Now that I read about it though, I am stunned by it’s awesomeness. It’s a good day to be a Nintendo fanboy.

Last time I mentioned things I was purchasing, I caught flak from Mike D for promoting my place of work, but this time the product I just bought it from an organization that I have no vested […]

Opera Turns 10

From /. [Slashdot.org] Opera, my favorite web browser, is celebrating it’s 10th anniversary. As part of their celebration, you can get a free registration code. If you’re worried about privacy, you can just give them a fake email address and copy the code off the confirmation screen.
I guess I can take Opera off […]

New Computer

Arriving today:

The box needs a bit more RAM and I’ll be throwing a higher end graphics card in it at some point (but with DVI on the motherboard, my only real complaint is shared video memory), but I’ve already got a DVD burner, so no worries about the base CD-ROM drive.
Work can can […]
