A while back someone had pointed me to World of Solitaire and asked for some UX advice. I tell it like it is, so for good and for bad, I will give my best advice. First, the good stuff. This is a technical marvel. Honestly, this is a ridiculously rich…

Miyagi: Now, ready? Daniel: Yeah, I guess so. Miyagi: [sighs] Daniel-san, must talk. Miyagi: Walk on road, hm? Walk left side, safe. Walk right side, safe. Walk middle, sooner or later *squish* get squish just like grape. Here, karate, same thing. Either you karate do “yes” or karate do “no.”…
For some reason, my internet access fails on Microsoft Vista Business 32-bit edition every time I reboot. The main symptom is that it puts a default gateway of 0.0.0.0 in the settings. Why is it doing this? I don’t think I am infected or anything. It’s happened to another computer…
Lately, I have been thinking about speed as the number one factor for software satisfaction. When a piece of software is fast, it makes the user so much happier than if it is just “powerful”. For example, in the early 90’s I loved XTreeGold. It was wicked fast and could…
Hooray! Someone finally nailed the background-repeat problem for PNG support. I have stopped stretching PNGs in the foreground because of IE intermittant issues. This, however, is a great solution. It’s in Alpha now, so maybe I should wait a bit to make sure it’s baked, but this is GREAT news. …
JibJab is so cool. They allow you to upload your own photo into the middle of their movie. How the hell do they do that?! Watch this one. I am in it. REMOVED LONG AGO
Miles: Sometimes you gotta say “What the F**k”, make your move. Joel, every now and then, saying “What the F**k”, brings freedom. Freedom brings opportunity, opportunity brings freedom. So your parents are going out of town. You got the place all to yourself. Joel Goodson: Yeah. Miles: What the f**k.…
Back when I had more hair. Jared looks so happy. Time flies. I got a new scanner, the CanoScan 4400F. So far, it’s pretty impressive. I am scanning Katie and my wedding album. Ahh memories and new technology. What more can I ask for?
I just finished the book, Designing the Obvious by Robert Hoekman, Jr. Although I appreciated his overall view and the points he was making, I just thought the book fell a little flat for me. In comparison, Don’t Make Me Think, was a much more enjoyable read. Neither book really…
Wow, that was fast. WordPress 2.6 is released. I actually had trouble with it for the first time ever. I downloaded the ZIP file and it had errors. I then tried the TAR file and it worked like normal, magically and instantly. This is my first moment using it, so…
I love upgrades. Trillian Astra just sent an update that allows me to see when someone is STARTING a message to me. I love this feature. I am so excited about it. Whenever I see the “Joe Smith is preparing a message to you”, I get giddy! I can’t believe…
I’m definetely pissing Katie off this weekend. I never have time during the week for this, so I have to do it now. Plus, since I am by the computer, I am moving a bunch of files from a smaller external HD to a larger one. This is taking alot…
There is one thing I love more than anything else, and that’s Katie. However, a close second runner-up is trying new software. I love new software. I love trying new things. I am addicted to it. My theme is no exception. The newness of it is just intoxicating. As you…
