modsonline upgrade

Many of you know I’ve been trying to get around to updating the MODSonline server. However, I’ve been putting it off for many reasons.

New servers mean additional expenses. I’m already paying a lot of the expense out of pocket and an upgrade would mean paying more.
I can’t just move to a new server without updating [...]

att not so sucky

I gave in and am spending the next 30 days testing an iphone. Now let’s backtrack and explain.
I’ve been a loyal customer of Verizon for many years now. It could possibly be about 14 years that I’ve stuck with the same carrier and it’s not because I have a thing for Verizon. It’s because I [...]

google notebook add-on / add-off / add-on

I’m not sure how many of you know about Google’s Notebook application. If not, it’s just what it sounds like, an application for taking multiple notes. Think of it like Twitter for Google Documents.
I’ve been a regular user of Google Notebook for recording the weekly topics for the MODSonair program I do every Sunday. During [...]

run then walk

I was really enjoying my running. I finally reached a goal of 5 continuous miles a day and I wanted to make that (every other day actually) my normal routine. For some reason, I’ve been enjoying the workout. I bet it’s related to my level-up-atitus.
However, this week I decided I needed to consult a doctor. [...]

nike+

I just got Nike+ gear for my ipod. See, over the last 6 months I decided I needed to lose some weight. In doing so I took up running, lifting and eating better. Since I spend so much time (and I mean A LOT OF TIME) behind the keyboard, I don’t get a chance to [...]

video streaming from windows 7

This past weekend I decided to give Windows 7 a try. I’ve been fooling with the beta and went all in by installing RC1 on my main desktop computer. It was going quite well, until the broadcast for MODSonair.
The broadcast seemed to be going well. However, when I went back to work with the recorded [...]

keyboards from hell

What is going on here?
A couple days ago, my keyboard took a header off my desk. It appeared to be working fine until I rebooted later that day. Then the keyboard was shot.. no connection.. it was dead.
Fine, I don’t mind getting something new. So off to the store I went.
I’ve been a great supporter [...]

in search of sync

I’m in the market for an FTP file syncronization utility. Not an FTP client for upload and downloading files. Rather a utility that will download a whole website and delete files on my local drive that don’t exist on the server drive.
I’ve been using CuteFTP Pro for years and it’s really lacking in quality. I’ve [...]

wtf cable part ii – update: 03-10-09

My cable speeds are showing serious signs of degridation… again. I’ve had the cable technician here twice in about 2 months and each time they replace something and tell me it’s fixed. It appears fixed and then this happens.. my upload speed practically comes to a halt.
I’m concerned about doing tomorrow’s MODSonair show with such [...]

how about a book without the face

I enjoy how I can connect with friends on Facebook. Yeah, it cool that old friends from school can find you and you can reconnect to see what’s going on. However, all those requests to “Send a Fish”, “Beer Request”, “Blue Cove”, “Pillow Fight”, blah blah blah… it’s quite annoying.
So I’m thinking to myself… wouldn’t [...]
