Attracting the wrong attention

Apparently, putting IE7 as a Technorati tag attracts the attention of someone from ieproviders.com, who leaves comments about the search providers you can plug into the search bar in IE7 even when that particular post has nothing to do with searching.

So I’m giving them the attention they crave over there, by exposing them. 🙂

Well this morning, I was able to succesfully recover files off a damaged floppy disk for a co-worker using it. That is what I call useful!
