was ok – Ray Lane spoke at the keynote on the first night dinner. There was a lot of discussion about his comment of in the near future we would be walking around with 100 GB on your belt – I don’t know if I agree with that. I wouldn’t want 100 GB on my … Read More
I just purchased the Epson R340 printer and have tried out a few prints. here’s what i’ve found so far. At first I didn’t actually set it up directly to a computer but used the print direct from memory card feature. I’m using a Compact Flash card (it also supports memory sticks, and SD cards) … Read More

not a bad device for the absolute basics. but not the best either. it doesn’t perform basic things such as real distance. for example. when traveling from point A to B, if direct point to point with equal elevation is 100 meters, it will record it as that. but if point B is 100 meters … Read More

So I’ve figured out how to get delicious working with Flock – see earlier post – it seems that it specifically requires del.icio.us as the service name. I followed the following steps to get it to work. 1. Type ‘about:config’ in the location bar 2. Type ‘flock.favorites’ in the filter 3. Find the property ‘flock.favorites.webservice.name’ … Read More
Just started using Flock and I’m still trying to figure out the real need. I already have IE, Safari, Firefox, and even Opera for my mobile – i just don’t see why i need another browser. Sure Flock is trying to change the paradigm a bit by making it a bit more integrated with Web2.0 … Read More
