Friday, December 9th, 2005
Looks like I am officially blogging. I am too cool for words. (Ironic, isn’t it.)
Thusly did this, my first blogging experience, begin. Pretty sad, really, but there you have it. Now here we are, three years and over 400 posts later, and I figure it’s about time I looked back to see if I’ve ever . . . → Read More: Three years of yammering on…
By Jeff, on November 11th, 2008 For the first time ever, this blog is involved in a contest. This isn’t like a “who’s got the best blog” kind of thing, but one that gives you the chance to win a prize. I know, I know… that’s mighty nice of me, isn’t it?
Well, to be honest, I’m not really the man behind the curtain on this one. The contest is actually being run by Andy over at commentluv.com. That’s one of . . . → Read More: Will you win?
By Jeff, on October 9th, 2008 Gizmo’s – Drag, Click & Snap Windows and Taskbar Buttons into Position | Gizmo’s Tech Support Alert
I have been looking for a utility that will let me rearrange those stupid Windows Taskbar buttons. I like to keep my email client as the first program on my taskbar. Sometimes it crashes (these things happen) and I have to reopen it, but to get it back to the beginning of the line again, I had to . . . → Read More: Rearrange your Taskbar buttons, and more!
By Jeff, on September 18th, 2008 No, I’m not talking about downloadable, put-it-on-your-iPod-and-go music (well, the sites do make it easy to buy the singles as a download). I’m talking about music to listen to when you’re connected to the internet.
There are lots of sites that provide ways to listen to songs online. There are three that I want to briefly touch on. Each require a free registration to do anything beyond listen.
On-Demand: iMeem
First, imeem.com bills itself as . . . → Read More: Free music on the internet!
By Jeff, on February 8th, 2008 Wink – [Homepage]
Just ran across this free application that could be a replacement for Adobe Captivate, if you’re looking for a quick and dirty way to create software demos. Did I mention it’s free?
Just from the screenshots and incredibly short example, it looks like it does a pretty good job, but isn’t as polished looking as Captivate.
I haven’t tried it yet, but I plan to soon. It might be a decent alternative . . . → Read More: Replace Adobe Captivate for free?
By Jeff, on October 17th, 2007 The Complete Guide to Free Music Online Legal Edition
Especially if you’re looking for new artists, this list will help you out. Everybody likes free music, right?

By Jeff, on September 30th, 2007 Free business cards! That’s pretty cool. Via the excellent Parent Hacks site (see below) I’ve now found two online printing companies that will print business cards for free. You have to pay shipping/handling charges, which probably amount to about $5, but that’s not bad.
The two sites are VistaPrint and ooprint. VistaPrint.com provides 42 design options and 250 cards, while ooprint.com provides 32 options and 100 cards.
Obviously this is a benefit for small (very . . . → Read More: “Free” business cards
By Jeff, on February 8th, 2007 The Webinar Blog: Cheap And Easy – Yugma Web Conferencing
More about Yugma (related post) from a blog focused on Webinars/WebConferencing. The author spent time reviewing Yugma and talking with Yugma’s COO, Karl Lukas, about the product and company.
Karel tells me that the company spent time analyzing how to meet the demands of the largest possible market for web conferencing software. They decided that the masses were calling for several features: They wanted something . . . → Read More: Yugma Conferencing – tough to beat free
By Jeff, on February 8th, 2007 Okay, the term “Web 2.0″ is utterly useless, but you gotta admit, there’s some cool stuff out there.
Instead of listing all the cool apps that will make your life wonderful, I’ll just list one: Go2Web20.net will help you find the app(lication) you are looking for. It’s basically a [tag]Web 2.0[/tag] enabled index of a slew of Web 2.0 tools.
For example, searching that site for “[tag]webconferencing[/tag]” got me to Yugma – which is a . . . → Read More: Web 2.0 applications / free conferencing
By Jeff, on January 12th, 2007 The Simple Dollar » Live Free: Seven Pieces Of Open Source Software That Transformed My Life
Okay, “life transforming” might be a little extreme … but then again I haven’t tried most of them yet.
I have tried GAIM, and I like it. I use Firefox, Thunderbird and (obviously) WordPress on a daily basis (though I haven’t heard of most of the extensions he mentioned).
I loaded Open Office once, but I had a really . . . → Read More: Life Transforming Open Source Software
