Hey Chris,
I was just watching you talking about Block Posters. I’ve been looking for that ever since I heard of the Rasterbator.
That works pretty well for a single photo, but it doesn’t have a very high resolution. So, I’m glad you mentioned Block Posters.
A couple friends and I are working on […]

Chris!
I’ve been a very happy user of Yahoo!’s “My.Yahoo.com” service since it was in its initial beta many years ago. The last couple of revisions have been pushing more dynamic Ajax layouts and requiring more screen real estate. So after giving each new version an honest try, and providing thoughtful feedback, I’ve […]

Dear Chris,
Last night was Update Night here, and since I had Automatic Updates turned on, I received the two updates from Microsoft and they were installed. I then rebooted, as per instructions, to finish the installation.
After the reboot, I was unable to access the Internet — either by my DSL or by […]

Hello Chris,
I am a student and have been looking for an application with which to schedule my schoolwork. Just recently my friend Ian sent me a message about this Open Source app called Schoolhouse 2. I found it to be extremely helpful — especially with long term […]

I watch your show all the time on Apple TV; keep up the good work!
I wanted to let you know that, since you’ve been reporting on Open Source everything, there’s one thing I’ve yet to see you report on, and that is an Open Source 3D gaming environment! I know you’re into games, […]

Hey Chris,
In one of your latest videos you briefly discussed Google Android — well, there is also a completely open development platform along with a smartphone called Neo FreeRunner to be released hopefully by the end of this year. That’s basically the smartphone I’m looking forward to buying as I’m tired of […]

After watching your video I thought to myself “what do geeks want from a Web browser?” Then a millisecond later I thought: “Well I’m a geek, what do I want from a Web browser?”
The first thing that popped into my head was addons! So I thought, as I am […]

Hey Chris! Here are some features and improvements I would like to see in Windows 7.

Better driver support. I want to see no limits in what I can hook up to my computer and I don’t want to see error messages because of it.

Dear Chris,
Recently it has come to my attention that belligerent leaders are having trouble suppressing the various atrocities that they commit. This exposure is thanks to the Internet, which enables bloggers to write about and inform the world of the activities of malevolent dictators. Examples of bloggers exposing their pernicious leaders range […]

Hey, Chris, how you doing? Been a viewer for quite some time and just thought I’d say hi. It’s really cool how you like to make videos to help people who need help with their PC and technology questions. Anyway the reason I’m writing is because I tend to browse YouTube a lot […]

Hey, Chris!
My computer recently experienced a sudden overheating; since this was the first time it’s happened to me, I was really scared. I was in my room when my processors started going nuts and they wouldn’t stop — neither would the fans. So I got a small fan […]

Hey Chris,
I just read your article about Open Source science research and it made me think that you may be interested in telling your viewers about the Fold It Project. It builds on the idea of collaborative computing projects, such as SETI@home, but rather than using ideal CPU time to process information, it […]

Hi, Chris! If you come to Australia…

Bring a fair amount of sunscreen. Australia is known for being a hot place.

Don’t ask to see the kangaroos or dingos in our backyards because it is illegal to have them as pets.

If you plan to drive, remember to get an Australian driver’s […]
