Preview Screenshot
How come whenever I open up an image in Preview the left side of the window shows up on my second monitor (which is to the left of the main monitor) and not perfectly aligned with the left edge? Look what happens when I take a screenshot? It’s show up correctly aligned! Crazy I tell you. Google helps me nada.

New Blog Design

Posted on October 29th, 2006 in Uncategorized | 2 Comments »

It was time for a new look & feel for this blog. I spend most of my time on my other blog, which supports my consulting business, and I wanted something that supported the latest and greatest widgets and plug-ins. After blogging for more than 4 years, I’d rather focus on the content, not the CSS.

Blog has been upgraded to WordPress 2.0.5 (Ronan), and the new look is TerraFirma. I’ll be doing small edits here and there when the mood hits me. A nice winter theme edit sounds like a good idea.

Firefox 2 and Finder Tweaks

Posted on October 28th, 2006 in Uncategorized | 2 Comments »

Lifehacker has some absolutely amazing tweaks for the new version of Firefox.

I’ve had some trouble with finder being slooooow lately. A trip to Google, where I learned about turning off Folder Actions and now things are back to normal. Positively zippy.

Check out these photos from Burning Man. I’ll make it out there one of these years, waiting for it to have it’s own area code. I should have gone in 1996 when I first heard about it.

Google has launched a customizable search engine. I’ve created one for this blog and will add others shortly. It’s Google and it’s beta, your mileage may vary.
