The Minority Report

I don’t know why but I’m quite proud of my very tiny, insignificant involvement with the Open Share Icon Project. I found it, wrote a post about it but really wanted to help in some way. I have a love for the SVG file format and I created a SVG version of the icon years [...]

I was a little bored with the typical Windows wallpapers and I’m tired of my Darth Vader’s lightsaber wallpaper, so I went asearchin’ this morning and found the above badass Windows Logo from Skyline a blog that is seemingly abandoned….right now (ya’ll thought mine was dead too. Fuckers.)

Changing your computers NIC MAC address is dicey businessChanging your computers NIC MAC address is dicey business.

Finding ring tones on the Internet is a fucking pain in the ass. Why this term ranks so fucking high and in turn is Web-link spammed into infinity is mind boggling. Must make some people a shitload of money. Regardless… So I find a post about a free ring tone search engine on gHacks by [...]

I’m playing whisper down the lane with this post. p.s. Can someone not comment and tell me when FedEx Kinkos became FedEx Office? Personally, I think it’s a mistake to lose the Kinkos part of the name but what do I know? I blog… FedEx Office (most of us will remember them as Kinkos) is [...]

I seriously do not understand that fascination with WinDirStat! Seriously, why does this program keep getting press, time and time again?? I downloaded it and it’s cool and stuff but seriously…between gHacks, Lifehacker, and 500 other blogs out there why is this recycled over and over again? It’s not even that useful if you want [...]

I don’t know if this is something that you want to use or not but I liked the name so here we are. Just so you know, you don’t have to use the pig graphics. There is a image file that is blank so that you don’t look like a complete douchebag. SpyPig is a [...]

Amazon just released an astounding amount of free, public information. I don’t even know how to comment on this yet! Over one terabyte of information that we can use to mashup, data mine, search and just generally futz with. In the interests of full disclosure, I have a small business relationship with Amazon.com and I [...]
