Posted Monday, October 20, 2003 8:38 PM by Shawn L. Morrissey
At a birthday lunch for one of our own today, we collectively came up with what could be the most important idea in the history of digital imaging – the Etch-A-Sketch plugin for Photoshop, turning any digital image into a * real * work of art. Which Read More...

Micro-ATX with DVI?

Posted Thursday, October 16, 2003 12:18 PM by Shawn L. Morrissey
I'm really warming to the idea of building a living-room PC based on VIA's latest EPIA mini-ITX footprint. Unfortunately, I haven't found one yet that has a standard DVI-output on the motherboard, something I'd really want for my media center... The EMIA Read More...

One little ratio

Posted Monday, October 13, 2003 6:47 AM by Shawn L. Morrissey
Wow. I picked up “ The Golden Ratio ” when I went shopping for Quicksilver the other day, and actually started reading it before Quicksilver. No regrets so far. It's not so much a math dissertation as it is a study of the impact on society Read More...

Have you heard about “ Let It Be Naked ”? Sir Paul and Ringo are getting rid of the Spectorization of some of the Beatles' best stuff. Yeah, I know - John Lennon approved of the project. Whatever - half of “Let It Be” wasn't his Read More...

Windows "Error" Reporting really works

Posted Monday, October 13, 2003 6:34 AM by Shawn L. Morrissey
Every time I go my folk's place, I always check their PC to make sure the latest updates have been applied. Lat time I was there, I finally set the preferences to download and install patches automatically, so I sleep much better at night. If you are Read More...

The Treo Droolbox

Posted Monday, October 13, 2003 6:23 AM by Shawn L. Morrissey
Looks like Laura's going to be the first around here with the latest droolbox . I dunno - with two major carriers, AT&T and T-Mobile, delaying their releases till 11.24, I have a bit of the jitters about ordering this so soon... http://blogs.gotdotnet.com/LauraJ/permalink.aspx/61678c5c-110b-4b42-bf05-29e9559d1122 Read More...

POLITICAL: We asked for this

Posted Monday, October 13, 2003 6:18 AM by Shawn L. Morrissey
Hey I hate to say it, and we asked for this. It's stories like this that I hope inspire more folk to openly question things like the Patriot Act. I'm not advocating anarchy; I am advocating more involvement in our government on everyone's part. http://weblog.siliconvalley.com/column/dangillmor/archives/001413.shtml Read More...

I hate blogger.com

Posted Thursday, October 02, 2003 1:18 PM by Shawn L. Morrissey
I’m addicted to NewsGator . When I hit an interesting site, the first thing I do is hit the “Import into NewsGator” button that’s now on my IE toolbar. That way, I don’t have to go searching and scrolling all over sites just Read More...

I’m shopping for a camera phone. Actually, I’m trying to replace my iPaq, my cell phone, and my digital camera (low-end) all at the same time. What device should I get? The Treo 600? I’d like to be able to download ringtones, content, Read More...
