I’ve been a self-taught, figure-it-out, just-do-it technology lover. I’m not sure when it was that I decided I loved working with computers. I remember having a TRS-80 that I would write little programs for and save them on the cassette deck. The programs were just a glorified screen saver, but they were pretty cool at [...]

My Favorite Graphics Programs
I’ve been working with a friend lately trying to find an affordable copy of Adobe Photoshop to be used in coordination with a non-profit’s efforts to do some graphic work.

Reviewing Windows 7 Libraries Feature
Reading a PC Magazine article discussing Windows 7 Libraries has caused me to think again about previous thoughts on file management issues in Windows operating systems. A library functions along the lines of logically grouping similar file types together. This isn’t a massively different way of thinking thatn what we’ve seen before in both Windows [...]
Ditching Your Cable Box for the Wii
The question about the value of subscribing to the Internet came up again for me this weekend. The discussion wasn’t so much around what video is available on the Internet, but more on the devices available to help you ditch the cable box for something else. Of course you can access the Internet from your [...]
