Last week I left my TL at the dealer to do some recall work. They lent me a 2007 Acura RDX. I’ve been curious about this vehicle ever since they announced the model but never got a chance to go to the dealer and check it out. I had my opportunity for a few hours….
I’ve been using Firefox 3 for over a week now and so far it’s been good. It has some improvements over version 2. Here are some of the new features. Smart location bar: This feature is great. If you visited a website before but can’t remember the exact URL, you can type a portion or…
Starbucks started a program with their card. It’s a rewards program. As long as you keep your card active (use/reload at least one a month), you can get free refills on brewed coffee, extra syrup or milk options, and my favorite – up to 2 hours of free AT&T wifi access. What’s great about this…
I recently found out how to install PEAR on a Godaddy shared hosting account. Visit http://pear.php.net/go-pear. Save the text displayed onto your desktop and name it go-pear.php.

We’ve been playing with our Wii Fit since the day it came out (May 21, 2008). So far we’ve been exercising with it about 30 minutes a day. We’re on our sixth day and have unlocked a couple of the new activities. My favorite activities so far is the ski jump, yoga, and the hula…
I finally got our Flickr account set up. At first I was having trouble with how to configure it. We both have Yahoo! accounts but if one of us will have the Flickr account, it would mean one of use would have to keep logging in and out of our accounts while browsing between Flickr…
We are currently using Phanfare as our online photo gallery. They have been great for the 1+ years we’ve been with them. They have unlimited storage, allow full quality photos, we have access to the original files, and video uploads. Recently, they upgraded my account over to their new version 2.0. My biggest complaint is…
I’ve been using Piclens for a couple of weeks now and it’s amazing. It takes photos from your website and turn it in to a 3D gallery for viewing. I recently got an update message for my Firefox browser. I updated the plugin and viewed the Piclens page again. This time their demo includes video….
