Changing things around

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Looks like I’m going to have some extra time on my hands over some of the next few weekends. I’ll be laid up after my little surgery tomorrow for the rest of the weekend, then my wife will be leaving me home alone for a couple of weekends in the near future, so naturally I’ll be working on some projects.

Now, granted, I’m not taking on any of the projects that require a lot of mental concentration this weekend, I’m afraid the painkillers will keep me from doing that very well, but I do believe I’m going to work on upgrading my Flickr account and begin the process of moving over all the pictures I’ve been hosting here. Nothing against the stuff I’ve been using to host galleries, I just feel like Flickr has reached the point where I want all those features for all my photos. So I’m moving them there.

I also am toying with the idea of creating a free Flickr account for the Friends of the Library site while I’m messing around in there, just as a place to put the extra photos that I don’t have room for in the journal entries. I’ve got some photos for that now, hopefully I’ll continue to get photos to make it worth my efforts.

I’m looking forward to spending some long hours working on some tech projects. It’s been awhile since I had the time or energy for that. 🙂

    So I’m giving Mailwasher a trial run, to see how it handles spam and stuff. My first impression is that it’s fairly cool, just having the ability to bounce emails is going to be fun. But the big functionality, at least to me, is the promised support for Hotmail accounts that’s coming in the next…

    So the day after Microsoft puts out a blogging tool, Blogger releases information about a new beta version of Blogger, complete with WYSIWYG layouts, labels, and privacy settings. I’m tempted to start a new test blog to get into the beta features, but I think I’ll simply wait until my account is eligible. I’ve got…

    The Labor Day weekend here in the US gave us another opportunity for a quick trip, allowing us, and Angela’s parents to spend some time in Chicago. We took the Amtrak from Toledo on Saturday morning, coming back to Toledo late Sunday night. It was a good time, both days were warm and sunny, without…

    Doc and the rest of the Cox Cable systems users seem to be having problems. The lesson here, never trust the pretty box, always go with a company that is willing to just give you the settings you need and not install software all over the place! That being said, Time Warner did the same…

    Yawn..

    Late night last night, because what should have been a simple upgrade turned into badness. The machine I’ve been running VMWare at home on only had 256MB of RAM. I’ve been wanting to give the Virtual Machines more RAM to work with, and finally, the computer store near me had a couple of PC100 256MB…
