Over the past few weeks there has been talk about Net Neutrality, including the FCC making rulings. I will be the first to admit that me writing about the issue is a little late, as the decisions have already been made. The decisions are not final and with Joe Lieberman now wanting to be able to turn off the Internet it is time for us to get more involved with the issues.

I had the opportunity to see Disney’s World of Color show from a unique angle, the side. The show takes place in the Disney California Adventure’s lagoon. In the lagoon is a collection of approximately 1,200 fountains, video projectors, lasers, mist machines, fog machines, projection domes… and other cool things. Most of the fountains have [more]

It has been interesting to see how language has changed in just the past ten years. To me it appears that the usage of the English language has changed to be much more phonetically driven than textually driven.

I wonder if the price of storage has made people into digital hoarders? So that we have so much information stored just because we can. We don’t really feel the impact of storing all this data, every so often we just go buy more space to put stuff. Are we even aware of what we have the information?

When I say “Thousands of Images” it is not hyperbole. My faithful reader will remember that about at the first of the year I started going through my images since 2000. This undertaking has taken much longer than I expected. I have just reached the point of having enough duplicates removed that I can start reviewing [more]

This past week, another chink occurred in my experience with Apple and Macintosh as the premium solution. I am not sure that I am the only one having these issues with the system “that just works”. In my case it did not “just work” and I don’t think my questions and ideas were that hard [more]

Someone asked me the other day why I like SmugMug so much and what I do with it that is making my life easier. So I figured it was worth answering. The main reasons I like it can be summed up in one sentence: "SmugMug lets me easily control, distribute, and manage my images." That [more]

So yesterday, Sat Jan 9, the tech showed up at the appointed time and replaced the modem. He also fixed some other issues with the connection serving my house I was not aware of, such as that the signal was coming in to hot. It seems to have gone well, however I am amazed at [more]
