Outlook on syncing with Google: Excellent
It seems that Google itself has released a useful little utility that will sync your Microsoft Outlook Calendar with your Google Calendar. No, I don’t think hell has frozen over, but it’s gotta be colder there anyway.
You can read more on the utility over at Google’s “Calendar Help Center“. Or you can skip [...]
Updated theme elements here on the blog
Hi all!
Just a quick post to mention the updated “post footer” changes that I came up with. Since adding a few additional services here on my blog, I’ve disliked how messy and unorganized the bottom of each post had become. So today, I set out to tidy it up a bit and make it [...]
Adobe AIR & Windows Vista

Online office - another go
Hey there, ho there - with the current mini-meme of online office app’s getting a bit more attention, I thought I’d give ‘em another go. That is, I have used all the major ones in the past year and a half, but have mostly come back to Microsoft Office.
Of course, I truly need MS [...]

Heh, guess I just found the time to “git ‘er dun” as it were.
No other changes have been made, but I’d appreciate it if you drop a comment or an email if you [...]
OS Snob?
I’m sitting here tonight reading some interesting thoughts on all sorts of things. From wondering what the future direction of social networking is, to computer hardware to operating systems. The post over at TechCrunch about gOS has me thinking… are both us Windows and Mac OSX users snobbish over our OS?
They both have a [...]
Rebuilding my browser
I’ve been a longtime Firefox user, using many of the excellent plug-ins to extend the experience as I find more services that I use online. Like many people, I’ve let myself get a bit overloaded with added features, and yes there were several that I no longer use.
So tonight I went through my entire [...]
Windows Live Writer Wish List
Ok, I’ve been using WLW for over a year now and really enjoy the tool. However, there are a few nit-picking things that I have to be fixed in the darn thing along with some ideas that would benefit the product.
In the last two beta releases, they have improved the product substantially (download [...]
Real Desktop for Windows
So I’m kickin’ back relaxing with a beverage this evening and see a tweet from Twitter friend Chris Pirillo pointing to an interesting app that I hadn’t seen before. Click.
Kinda cool, called Real Desktop from a Schillergames in Germany. Interesting deal, puts a 3D desktop on the Windows desktop. Very cool if you’re really interested in [...]
