Plugin Updates
0 Comments Published by finn January 31st, 2006 in Site News, techno-geek, software, wordpressWell, I just upgraded a couple of my favorite plugins…
I upgraded my anti-spam plugin - Spam Karma 2 to version 2.1 from the 2.1 beta version. Got to keep myself protected from those evil spammers!
I also upgraded my photo gallery plugin - FAlbum from version 0.5.3 to version 0.6.3. Since flickr is where I […]
Small monitor viewing
0 Comments Published by finn January 30th, 2006 in Site News, techno-geek, wordpressI noticed tonight that when I look at my site with my google deskbar in sidebar mode, I lose my left hand side site navigation. I wonder whether I should make the site work for screens smaller than 1024×768, or whether I should leave it alone.
Thoughts? Comments?
I got my iPod. I bought it just before we left for Utah. I bought it thanks to the efforts of Katie, who prodded all my friends to buy me BestBuy gift cards for my birthday.
I decided to purchase the 30gb iPod. I thought the 60gb iPod would be overkill since I have about 25gb […]
I recently registered legbandt.org and I haven’t decided what to do with it. Do I move my blog to my family domain? Do I put up a private family website? Anyone have any ideas?
Air Force testing new transparent armor
0 Comments Published by finn October 18th, 2005 in techno-geekSaw this link on Slashdot, Air Force testing new transparent armor, and thought of a novel application for it. Homes. Windows are the least protective part of your house. You can easily break one by throwing a small rock, or as my dog, Java, has recently proven by repeatedly butting your head into it. I […]
Yesterday, while out running errands, I found a great price on a 20gb iPod at Costco. I really, really wanted to buy it. It would have been an irresponsible purchase, mainly because I could use that money for other things (like food). But for $239, it is only $10 more than a refurbished 20gb iPod […]
ABC News has posted an AP article on a Wi-Fi cloud in rural Oregon. A Wi-Fi cloud would be awesome in the rural area of Smithfield, UT where my in-laws have a house. I love the area up there but the lack of high-speed internet access where they live is big issue for me. […]
Google satellite photos worry India leader
0 Comments Published by finn October 15th, 2005 in Politics, techno-geek, softwareBusiness Week has an article titled “Google satellite photos worry India leader“. I wonder if any politician has figured out that if a terrorist really wants to target a location, they will do their own reconnaissance and not rely on information found elsewhere. Any information on the Internet or any other publicly available source is […]

browser bookmarks
0 Comments Published by finn July 1st, 2005 in Verbal Vomit, techno-geek, softwareEver notice that the bookmarks list in your browser seems to grow at an enormous rate? I did. So I decided to devote 30 minutes of my life to clearing out old bookmarks. I actually went through a bunch of them and noticed that they no longer work, many of the domains don’t even exist […]
