Burrow.io redeux

I mentioned before that I was dissapointed that burrow.io went down. Well, I totally forgot to mention when the came back up again, like a week ago. I also wanted to mention that when I finally got ahold of them via email, they were super nice and apologetic. Seems they ran afoul of a couple […]

FAIL!

OOOF! So today Dann sent me a message telling me that the LinuxPlanet.org sites hadn’t updated in like 20 days. Apparently he’s the only one that noticed.. :/ I fixed the feeds and we are all up and running now. At any rate, if you *do* actually use the service, whether ti is down or […]

Amazon Kindle, Subsonic and MusicBrainz

   Early last week I had another burst of reading activity on my Kindle 3. Reading for me tends to come in spurts when the rest of my life doesn’t interfere and it had been a while. I loaded up the Kindle with some new goodies (Sh*t my dad says is hilarious, btw) and started peeling […]

Best Buy?

More like goodbye… Friday night I go to Best Buy to check out their 17″ Gateway laptop. I bring my trusty Mint Live cd so I can check things out real quick like before I buy the thing. When I get into the store, I am, greeted by one of the blueshirts who asks if […]

Kudos Amazon!

Quite a while back, in September in fact, I ordered a big honkin battery for my Acer Aspire One. I bought the 9 cell version through Amazon from a place called NewMP3Technology. The battery came, I charged it right up and used it on the upcoming Ohio Linux Fest. My only note on it was […]

Updates

Updates, updates everywhere. I pushed a bunch of updates to FreeLinuxBox.org, my Blog, LinuxPlanet Casts and Blogs, LinuxForChristians, TLLTS Planet and the Lincware forums. Everything looks ok right now, but please let me know if you see anything strange happening (or not happening as the case may be). Thanks and you may now return to […]

FIRE!

Even though it’s a day late, I thought I would share that my train caught on fire on the way into work on the 4th. Nobody was hurt (that I know of) but plenty of people were ticked off and it sure was stinky! For those that don’t already know, it just so happens that […]

Better than the other guys

I just wanted to tell you all a story about a fantastic company. That company is Neuros Technology. Long long ago, when Neuros first released the OSD, Joe Born, the man behind Neuros, arranged to get me a review unit. I received the unit, reviewed it and “saw that it was good”. Things were a […]

New Voip Provider? HELP!

I have to admit that I have been using Broadvoice for quite a while now. We even use it for the TechShow as well. They have served pretty well with only a few growing pains and problems early on. All would have been happy ever after if I hadn’t read a horrible Broadvoice review on […]

Want to feel cheap?

This will be of interest to any of my fellow computer professionals out there: Recently I have been bombarded every time I turn on the TV with commercials from ComputerTraining.Com. This is an institution which boasts that in just 6 months it can turn your life around with an exciting new and high paying career […]
