• Microsoft Windows Server 2003 R2 Express Edition.

  Today I was talking with Kevin Clough, a developer at Collages.Net (where I work as well). We were discussing Microsoft's software and how it was extremely useful (we are both .NET programmers, though professionally I handle networks - not software...

• Where Am I Writing From?

  Its 2:39 a.m. - far past my bedtime on Friday (oops, Saturday now) - so where am I? I'm at my house. So why the title of this post? Because of where I am as far as Operating Systems go. Right now I am running Ubuntu Feisty Fawn. For those who aren't...

• GameSecretary.Com Gets a Small Facelift.

  I'm a programmer (and a hobbyist at that), not a designer. But, I know that perception is a big part of utilization. If my site's look absolutely horrible people are unlikely to use them.

Usually this... Posted May 27 2007, 04:00 PM by admin with | with no comments Filed under: microsoft, system resources, exchange

• Red-Gate Releases SQL Backup 5.

  Red-Gate is a British company that offers uniquely deceptive and simple tools that are extremely powerful. One tool of theirs' that I absolutely love is SQL Backup (what a simple name).

• First Thoughts on Microsoft Silverlight.

  Microsoft decided they needed to compete with Netscape for the internet browsing market and created Internet Explorer. Microsoft decided they needed to offer a development model to compete with Sun Microsystem's Java and they created the .NET Framework...

• First Day on Vista.

  We have some users who are moving over to Vista at work. Mainly for testing and compatibility purposes. Oftentimes I have to support platforms I'm not running (e.g. Mac OS X). This isn't too hard, because computers is more about developing analytical... Posted Mar 08 2007, 06:46 PM by admin with | with no comments Filed under: microsoft, vista, operating system

• OpenID - A De Facto Standard.

  I think OpenID can be considered a de facto standard. Where Microsoft with all its clout failed, it is evident that OpenID is succeeding. This is probably because OpenID can survive without any one organization, and anyone can run part of OpenID. The...
