Going Ubuntu
Like I said yesterday, over the weekend I installed Ubuntu (a flavor of Linux) onto my PC. I did not take the Linux only route this time around because i wanted to get a lot of things working and tested before I completely switched over to Linux again. Main reason for this is [...]
Over 900 Unread Items
I went to Austin to visit some friends over this past weekend and was without a computer or any other kind of internet access other than my phone and came home to find over 900 unread items in my Google Reader. That is a lot of stuff for just a little under 48 hours without internet access.

helming the writing
duties, this promises
to keep the world
alive and kicking well
beyond King’s novels.
Which for us, is a
good thing.
