First public website turns 20, comes back online — then crashes
Tue Apr 30, 2013
- I remember when there was a web site that listed all the new web sites. It used to be a reasonably small number, then quickly got very long. Eventually they gave up, since the number of new sites was growing exponentially, and there was no way to continue listing them all. I too remember …
Windows XP death watch begins
Tue Apr 9, 2013
- At work, we still have a lot of folks (myself included) that are running XP. The company has announced that those not getting a new computer in the near future will be upgraded to Win7. My concern is when we get to this same point in Win7's "career" - from what I have seen Win8 cannot do …

NYC, automats created lunch as we know it
Wed Jun 27, 2012

You really can judge people by their shoes
Wed Jun 13, 2012
- I suppose this might be accurate in the big picture, but I recently gave up wearing sneakers in the warmer months to wear light hiking boots all the time. This wasn't due to a change in character, but due to foot problems that the hiking boots help prevent.
