wtf cable
I found a problem with my internet connection today. I was uploading a video and the connection was horrendous. I thought perhaps something was wrong with my computer, router or something here in the office. However, testing the connection directly to the cable modem from multiple computers proved that was not the case. My download [...]
windows 7 ain’t bad [updated 01-21]
I have a laptop specifically for work. It’s larger and not fun to carry around, but when I have to work away from the comfort of my desktop, it’s much more convenient.
Since the laptop is only a couple years old, I was forced to purchase it with Windows Vista pre-installed. I thought it would be [...]
uhm
Really, sometimes you have something to say and no time to say it. Other times you have nothing to say but you have all the time in the world to tell everyone about it.
That explains the chirping crickets here on foyleman.com. Mostly, I have no time… which is a good thing. However, when I do [...]
Google 2001
Ah, memory lane. Take a trip back to the year 2001 with Google’s anniversary search page. Google made available search results for January of 2001 in honor of their 10th birthday. I know it’s not currently 2011, but a 7 1/2 year journey back for a 10th anniversary isn’t too bad.
I tried looking myself up [...]
hot tub = new patio
Haven’t seen me around in a couple weeks? Well that’s because I’ve got another summer project. Seems this happens every year.
This year’s project is centered around a hot tub. I found one on craigs list at a great price. I went and saw the tub and said I would take it. The guy told be [...]
CopyforNotes 2.0
FireFox addon CopyforNotes version 1.9 2.0 is available. No changes except that it works with all 3.X versions of FireFox and will now automatically update when new versions are released. Grab it HERE.
I’m doing more extension research. I have some ideas that I would like to see out in the form of a completely new [...]
Battlefield backwards
Backwards? Well, sort of. A friend of mine suggested in jest that we play some Battlefield 2. A few days later and I couldn’t stop thinking about going back to that version and giving it another go. So I did.
Today I picked up a copy of Battlefield 2 with all the exansion packs. The price [...]
Eee wins
After all that, I went with the Eee PC. I said I was considering waiting for the Gigabyte model, until I realized the predicted release date of “this month” was speculative and not even related to US release. lol
I’m glad I went with the Asus brand. I am really digging this little bugger. And let [...]
ordered… no, wait
I thought I finally picked out and pre-ordered my new netbook. I was wrong.
‘Netbook’ is the new term for ultra-portable laptops. I wrote a post about them previously when I was comparing and considering which one to wait for and subsequently order.
Last week, Amazon announced that I could finally order the Asus Eee 901 PC. [...]
live video ain’t what it could be
I think MODSonair is a great show, but it could possibly be better if we could turn it from radio to television. Sure, we broadcast live with a webcam… but that doesn’t make it interesting to watch. Wouldn’t it be better if you could see the game trailer being talked about, the screenshot of that [...]
