• The Monday After

    I knew that today was going to be a fun day at the office. You don’t go through what we did Friday without having a frenzied Monday afterward.

    Two computers had to be flushed and Windows’d. Various printer drivers needed installing. Sleep mode needed disabling on one PC. Acrobat Reader needed installing on another. The mixer icon needed enabling on yet another.

    Maybe tomorrow I can get some real work done. Nah, why start now?

  • Way Out, meet Way In

    Via Holy Shmoly I found the answer to Microsoft’s silly “We Have The Way Out” site:

    We Have The Way In

    It needed doing, dammit. And it’s actually a useful, well-presented site. Nice work.

  • All My Television Are Belong To AT&T

    I don’t have many television programs that I watch “religiously.” Unfortunately they all fall on Friday and Saturday, precisely the two days during which our cable was turned off. So no Farscape, no Yu Yu Hakusho, no Cowboy Bebop and no Pilot Candidate.

    Waaaaaaah!

  • The Great Sales Migration

    Some fifteen salespersons will be translocated this afternoon starting at 2:00pm. Guess who gets to hook up all the computers, monitors, keyboards, mice and speakers?

    I’m probably going to be at this well into the evening, unless some miracle occurs and I get a lot of well-coordinated help. Oh well. I didn’t have any plans for the evening anyway, other than watching the new episode of Farscape.

    Mmmmmmm, Farscape.

  • Dropcaps Begone

    Okay, so I’ve stopped using the dropcaps. I realized (belatedly) that they’re going to wreak havoc with the redesign that’s coming just as soon as I get some free time to monkey with the code. It’s going to be fun, it’s going to look great, but it’s not going to like having big ugly dropcaps all over the place. Ah well. It sure makes starting one of these entries a helluva lot easier not to have to type “span class = dropcap” and so on.

  • The secret to Google’s success

    Via DiabloII.net of all places I found a link to this explanation of why Google is such a wonderful and successful search engine.

    I take exception to the “slow-moving waterfowl” reference, though.
