Check out http://maps.live.com Their "Bird's Eve View" images are WAY better than google maps. I was able to see really close up some of the houses I used to live in growing up. It's nuts.
Really cool site where you can make "mix tapes" online!

The Mac OSX dock is SO ANNOYING! It's always popping up or taking up room or loading programs I didn't want to load because I accidentally click on it.
I mean, it's cool, it's neat, but it gets in the way.
I found this hack / mod and it works GREAT!

So I ordered an EEE PC a month ago and it was on backorder, they've been hard to get. Mine shipped Friday and the following Monday they announce a new version. Isn't that always the way? (Mine arrived today/Wed.)
The new one will be the same body but with more screen (less screen border). But I assume it'll be more money, so whatever. But it just figures.
You can get a 2G for $299,
a 6G for $399, and
an 8G for $499 at
newegg.com, amazon.com or dynamism.com.

They say if you have nothing nice to say, don't say anything at all. Hence my blogging silence. I'm just very SAD after my friend's death and also rather bitter and my patience is nill.

I'm beginning to get symptoms of Carpal Tunnel Sydrome. Using a mouse causes some pain and other symptoms. I ordered this vertical mouse which keeps you from twisting your arm at the wrist. No pain at all using it! Not even any pain while doing other things that would hurt my wrist! It's awesome! It's the "evoluent vertical mouse 3".
