Hi Again,
Yesterday we spoke about picking a name and hosting a blog yourself, so today we are actually going to get started with hosting a blog. There are two kinds of hosting which you should be aware of.
Hey Gang,
If you have no idea about how to use wordpress but some blogger somewhere (like myself) told you that it is the cat’s meow when it comes to blogging, then this is the wordpress tutorial for you! I want to take people who are completely unfamiliar with wordpress through getting their own self-hosted wordpress blog. Continue Reading →
OpenOffice.Org might be one of the greatest business assets of this century. The amount of money a business could save by using this software is beyond imagination. Of course if Mr Gates has anything to say about it this will never become a reality.
Never-the-less, be blown away by open source software in this video.
Enjoy!
God Bless,

Sorry for the long delay. I have spent the past three days spending all of my time working with screencasting software and setting up on my Vista machine so I can start spilling out Vista screencasts.

Windows XP and Windows Vista both subscribe to this general idea that suspend mode is the best thing that ever happened to computers. The problem is that it doesn’t work yet.
Standby/Suspend is a mode that puts your computer into a very low power level (but not completely off.) Continue Reading →
In continuing with my talk on backups I thought I’d list out some common things you should think about backing up.
I have heard a lot of websites promote Firefox and they said that it was better than Internet Explorer because of several features which Firefox has — they often state that Firefox is better than IE because it is “more stable” and “more resilient to spyware and viruses.”
But why? This is the question that they never seem to answer. The fact that it is is a great reason to go Firefox (and the price is right.) But what makes it more resiliant and more feature-full than Internet Explorer? What did Mozilla corp do right that Microsoft failed to do? Continue Reading →
