Online Identity

So, if you could have someone search all the stuff you ever posted online, what would they find? Would they find things that you probably shouldn’t have posted online in the first place? Or even worse, would they be able to learn about you just by reading everything you ever posted online? Well, I had [...]

Windows Anytime Upgrade: Good or Bad Idea?

I’ve decided that I want Vista Premium, but the laptop doesn’t come with it installed. At the current moment, I have Vista Basic.

Cloning hard drive data without using Norton Ghost

Just the other day, I was trying to install Windows XP Service Pack 3 on one of my virtual machines and the reason why it failed was because I had ran out of hard drive space. I thought 5 GB for XP would be enough, especially for XP, but I guess not. Since I can’t [...]

Weatherbug - What do you think about it?

Tired of looking at the same Windows theme all the time?

If you’re reading this page now, you’re more than likely wondering what I could possibly be talking about. Well I’m going to tell you. First off, when back in the days of XP and first getting the Operating System on a new computer, I was pretty excited about the how new it looked and all [...]

Starting out…

When I first started blogging, I was unsure of one thing, “What would I write?” I mean I could just keep up with the news and report what I think, but wouldn’t that be a little boring? Maybe, depends on what I say, but then again I don’t really try to stay with the crowd. [...]
