The 21st Century Job Hunt Once upon a time, when the first place you'd look was the newspaper help wanted ads. Monday through Saturday you'd find a respectable selection of ads, but Sunday was the BIG job search starting point day. |
Magazines for Dog Lovers Those of you who know me IRL know that I am a dog person. Several years ago I got a furry roommate - a cockapoo named Bailey. That led me to looking into various resources for information on life with a pup. Here are some of the ones I've found useful and interesting: Read more >> |

Yes, I Know... Yes, these blocks are filled with gibberish. I've been wanting to get back into a regular writing schedule, but there's always a reason not to. So, I'm hoping this open, unfinished area on my home page will prod me into creating content that someone out there may find interesting, or even helpful. Keep your fingers crossed for me! |

Microsoft warns of IE7 lock-in with XP SP3
If you've been thinking about updating to XP SP3, stop to consider. The "bonus" of updating is locking you into IE7, if you already have it installed. Should you need to roll back to IE 6, for example to do some testing, you'll be out of luck.
Also, there's a warning for those of us who have installed the beta of IE8. It seems that there's a possibility of "instability problems."
I'm soooo sure this has nothing to do with the fast that the numbers for IE7 have been, to put it mildly, unimpressive.
Not sure about you, but this does not leave me feeling all warm and fuzzy.

Amazon.com Launches "Amazon TextBuyIt" â?? Shop Via Text Message
Interesting idea, but not sure how much I'd use it - and I shop Amazon a lot. (OK, too much, but that's another story... ;-) )

Study: Women get more use out of their TiVos | Tech news blog - CNET News.com
I can see where this would be true - time management and time shifting seem to fit together nicely.
Personally, watching TV without my TiVo feels barbaric.

Mozilla says Firefox 3 ready for prime-time
I totally agree!
I've been using the various betas of FX3 for some time now, and it has been amazingly stable on my systems. I think people will be very happy with this - the speed alone is a welcome improvement!
There are still a number of add-ons that have not been updated, but I wouldn't expect that to take too long to address. Well done, Mozilla!
