Trying Flock
I’ve reading a bit about Flock lately, so I’m going to give it a try. I’ll let you know how that goes. I’m looking for any way to tie together the social networks better than they are today.

Making the most of WebcamMax
A video blog post about using WebcamMax.
Let me know if this video does not show in your RSS feed! I’m really interested in figuring that out.
UPDATE: Of course turning on my microphone would have been a great idea.
UPDATE II: I must have really been tired when I finally posted… I had my headphones plugged in [...]
Windows Live Writer 2.0 beta
A new version of Windows Live Writer is available for download. Have just installed it, I’ll be reporting issues as I find them - my one wish that wasn’t included in this release is support for XHTML so WLW is just as messy with HTML as all Microsoft products. Yuck on that front, but [...]
Zoho partners with EchoSign, updates Zoho Writer
Zoho Writer is now integrated with EchoSign. This kind of cooperation and partnering is what breads great products. The enhancements just updated on Zoho Writer entice me to use the product more than Google Writer for example.
Also updated/added is support for Box.net, another online service I use, and blogging tweaks to make posting from [...]
My Favorite FireFox Plug-ins
I’ve been using FireFox as my main browser now for about 9 months (maybe a little more) and have become a true convert from IE. Since there is much more expandability on the FF side, I’ve really started depending on a select group of plug-ins. This expandability that was never available in IE, has [...]
Dave on Microsoft Word
My brother-in-law Dave has a great post where he talks about Microsoft Word (among other things) and its usefulness. He’s right on the money in that most users simply view it as a tool for writing quick documents and not employing its more useful features.
Nice writeup Dave!

Office Pro 2007
So I got Office Pro a few weeks ago and found that I will need to pick up the other Office components as well. Pro comes with Outlook, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and a few other incidentals. I don’t count Access as a real app since I’ve seen a lot of shitty programming done with it.

Where is my custom WordPress theme?
I’ve been using some very nice (I think) themes from very creative developers in the WordPress community. They all have had some design component that I really like, maybe the full use of space on one, the clean uncluttered look of another, the graphics on a third, the font/type/CSS creativity of a fourth, and [...]
Upgraded: WordPress 2.1
I pulled the trigger this evening and upgraded my blog to WordPress 2.1, which you can download here. Along with a reported 550+ bug fixes, there are several new features built into the new version - some listed below.
Autosave makes sure you never lose a post again.
Our new tabbed editor allows you to [...]
jkOnTheRun: Impressed with Google Reader
Congratulations to James Kendrick who has moved over to Google Reader from Onfolio. GR is really one of the best-done online feed readers (the best IMHO), with simple easy to remember/use keyboard shortcuts, lightweight AJAX interface that is quick to render, and the ability to mark items for future reference.
Another feature that I’ve been [...]
