News and coffee

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Good morning, I didn’t get much of anything accomplished with the pics last night, I was too caught up in the fantastic finish of the Islanders-Maple Leafs game last night. However, my lovely wife was kind enough to burn all of them on a CD last night, so I may get some free time at work today to fire up the laptop and work on the pages for them a bit. (Does she rock or what?)

In other news:

Brian is pointing to an Urgent Warning on the Spyware Info page about Radlight Media player, and how it will uninstall Ad-Aware automatically when you install it and the scumware it comes with. Yeah that’s what I want software to do when I download it, uninstall other software that I already have and use. Sheesh!

In Legal and Privacy news there’s National Security Becomes National Snoopery – a good look at what Law enforcement is doing with their great new powers and why it should worry you.

    I guess the new addition of the TableEditor turned out to be a double-edged sword last night. Yes, someone did leave a comment that was nothing more than “come visit my blog” with a link, and yes I did delete it. Unfortunately, I also left a comment by Anita that referred to said spam comment,…

    While we were out running around last night, one of the stops we made was to browse around at Half-Price Books. (One of my favorite places!) As I was walking past the software section I noticed a little sign telling customers that they would be glad to buy and resell various games or children’s software…

    I officially switched the RSS Feed over to the new BloggerPro version of it, since it came out of Beta and into production. Now if you click the little “XML” image on the right side, you’ll go to that feed instead of the old one. The old one will continue to work for now, but…

    In response to some of the comments on the post below: Marc wonders what my platform would be, he suggests “Two PC’s in every house”. I’m thinking more along the lines of “What do I look like, Santa Claus? Get a job and buy your own stuff!”It’s not exactly the “caring” platform, but you know…
