Here is a very cool looking device called the Sony Mylo. It’s been around for about a year. “Mylo” stands for ‘My Life Online’ which is also the name of a now defunct wireless service provider from the early 2000′s (right around the dotcom implosion). Anyway, this PSP looking device doesn’t play games. That’s right [...]

Well, this is one of those of times that everyone has a little bit of time/space to reflect on their lives, their recent accomplishments, their home price and the upcoming presidential election. Best of all, they can do it while getting loaded and eating turkey – the traditional meal for Thanksgiving – also known as [...]

Can You Dig It, Baby? Today is a good day. I wandered aimlessly into an ACE Hardware store and heard one of my two all time favorite, but unknown songs. I’ve heard this song a handful of times in my life and could never figure out what it was. In fact, I never even really [...]

Podcasting with the Olympus WS 300M I’ve started producing some podcasts for various sites. After experimenting with a bunch of different setups, I think I’ve come up with a winner. I use the Olympus WS 300M along with the Logitech Premium Headset. Here are some initial observations: You NEED an external microphone if you’re serious [...]

First off, I confess to not being an Oregon fan (see voidgame.com), but the sportsman in me hates to see any athlete suffer and injury – much less an injury that will in all likelihood knock him out of contention for the biggest trophy in College Football!!!! Dixon’s left knee buckled under him when he [...]

I’m always surfing for more domains. I wanted to grab something “unique” so I check the 1and1 dropdown and saw the “ws” TLD. I had seen it before and always assumed it meant “web service” – duh! The .ws domain represents the country of Samoa, which was formerly referred to as Western Samoa. The .ws [...]

Merrill Lynch Business Financial Services developed an extensive Word template repository programmed in VBA. The repository consisted of a single network folder that housed over one hundred stand-alone Word templates. Each template launched a userform when invoked that prompted the user for basic information. This information was then used to populate certain areas of the [...]

Wal Mart has created a not-so-secret “Secret Site” for the Holiday Shopping Season. I came across a pretty cool Acer laptop with 1GB of ram for $348 (GET OUTTA HERE!). The website offers a glimpse at some “Early Black Friday” specials that will start the morning of November 2. The regular website for Wal-Mart Stores, [...]

I finally got Linux installed on the laptop (Debian 4.0 – review coming soon). I’ve also been checking Probstisms frequently for an update on “Leopard” but he hasn’t posted a thing??? I surfed the web briefly and came up with nothing but negative comments. Looks like those cool looking paperweights also have security issues: check [...]

All the negative reviews couldn’t kill my enthusiasm for the? Palm Foleo. I was actually excited about a? mobile Linux companion. Palm announced it on May 30, 2007 and cancelled on September 4, 2007. I’ve been involved with cancelled projects before and I know how the people behind it must feel. It was going to [...]
