Adobe’s love of shotguns…

Adobe seems to have a love of shotguns, namely pointing it at itself and/or it’s users and pulling the trigger. *** I’ve been pretty vocal about my dislike for the present CEO. I sold all my Adobe shares (just to make that clear).  And I really think Adobe is doing EVERYTHING it can to kill [...]

Dear TV Network

When are you guys going to stop being stupid? Seriously, I do not understand why all of you networks “just don’t get it”. 1. Internet programming – I will never buy cable again. I watch a handful of shows and am tired of paying $150 for mostly nothing I want to watch. 2. Discovery Channel [...]

QR code, Google believes it’s a buffalo. But Google’s wrong!

Google Kills Off Those Little Square Codes You Scan With Your Phone http://articles.businessinsider.com/2011-03-31/tech/29979593_1_qr-codes-android-nfc-forum Why Google is completely and moronically wrong…. NFC tech has it’s uses, buy a coke from a vending machine.  Hoorah! But seriously, the appeal of the QR code is the simplicity in use and creation – it’s ubiquitous.  ANYONE, and I mean [...]

A friend posted about Code Warm up level challenge

Well, I didn’t have much time. And haven’t free coded in ages. I had an idea but it didn’t work perfectly. Tried to do just a mock-up and even that ran into trouble. (For whatever reason, my Level Up code is broken. It was working 20 minutes ago. But now _levelUp += 1; suddenly becomes [...]

Steve Jobs: The End of the PC Era

While I may begrudge Steve Jobs on many of his and Apple’s policies. I admire him greatly as a visionary. Steve Jobs & Wozniak pretty much ushered in the era of the “personal computer” with Apple. Apple brought a lot of innovation to the PC world. One might also argue that Steve Jobs is personally [...]

Highlighting a Row in Excel

At my new job I’ve been working with Excel & VBA Script. Something I’ve not really done before. I wanted the ability to highlight the row of the active cell. Makes for easier data entry. A number of examples are out on the web. However, most involve simply highlighting the entire row and clearing all [...]

Circles – A Concept of Social Networking

Google just launched it’s Google+ social network. I was very curious, probably more so than the avg person to see their system.  The result was somewhat a “bittersweet” moment for me.  For nearly 5 years I have had a concept for a social networking site. The concept was “Circles”. I even endeavored to register some [...]

Google Botches Big

UPDATE:  So I cleared out a conflicted email, which ironically was conflicted on Google tools I never really used. But it may have come down to posting on some Blogger accounts with the same account name. The next step is uber-intuitive. Google’s addition of YouTube service to Google App accounts is not enabled by default. [...]

Third Times a Harm (iPhone/iTunes Does It Again)

It would seem that I am cursed not to successfully sync more than three times in a row. So today I synchronized my phone. The result? I noticed an old app I had deleted. Bizarre. Then I realized ALL my folders were gone. Everything is re-arranged, altered. This occurred after I tried to purchase an [...]

TRON: Legacy

I have waited over 25 yrs for this movie. A quarter of a century is a long time to wait for a sequel… So here’s my review….I will try to avoid spoilers as much as possible. The new TRON movie is a bit darker, a little less playful. If I had to describe it in [...]
