This would seem like something silly to write about. Why would it matter that I uninstalled on app from my cell phone? Because this serves as a prime case where several minor issues have ruined my experience to the point where the app is no longer worth having on my device. Now, my phone is […]
A few months ago, I wrote a little article while at a local mall, entitled “Free Wi-Fi Hates You.” The article spoke of the woes of gaining access to most unsecured public wireless access point. There is a trick to getting good WiFi, however. It just require some research beforehand. This may be common knowledge, […]
It’s a question virtually anyone who writes will ask themselves. Why do I do this? Why do I write? I never intended to be a blogger. I never thought anything of the idea, honestly. It seemed silly to sit there and write about random things. Honestly, who would read such? Who would care, right? Then, […]
Free Wi-Fi is a thing of pure evil. It feels like the ultimate bait, to get someone like me to come in, sit down, spend a few dollars on a snack or something, and get the privilege of browsing the internet out in public. However, it never fails that I seem to spend more time […]
Everyone has that one situation, where you are discussing the online services you use, and someone has to ruin the party by saying that the service you have been satisfied with for years on in is absolutely terrible, and you are a bad person for choosing such. My online life has certainly been no exception, […]
Over the years, I have done several changes to this website. Originally as a simple way to host some forums and a few software projects I was working on, it eventually evolved into the blog you see before you. The problem is, the site has always retained a sort of technology focused nature to it. […]
So, something came across my Twitter feed today that kind of shocked me! Namely, this article that says, apparently, that some users demand that Microsoft bring back the Aero design interface in Windows 8: http://betanews.com/2013/02/04/do-you-want-aero-in-windows-8-fight-for-it/ For the sake of completeness, before I continue this article, let me share the the Wikipedia article on Aero. […]
Over two months after the release of Windows 8, the tech community seems as divided on it as the day it was released. There are those who love it, and those who hate it. The most common complaints seems to be “It was made for touch screens, you need one or it’s terrible” or something […]
My thoughts on Windows 8 vs Windows RT, and how I feel RT is not being explained correctly to the customer base.
Today marks the release of the newest entry into Microsoft’s long legacy of operating systems: Windows 8. Today also marks the biggest change to Windows since the release of Windows 95, and the introduction of the Start Menu; The Start Screen. Over the past year, since the release of the developer preview in Fall of […]
One of the defining characteristics of the Guild Wars series has been its use of instances; unique events in MMO worlds that are separated from the bulk of the normal world. In many games, such events are used for unique mob spawns, such as boss battles, or special events that for whatever reason are an […]
Facebook pages can be great ways for interaction, but sometimes, things get a little too crazy…
So, it has been about 2 weeks since the release of Guild Wars 2. Let’s just say it has taken up quite a bit of my time. 😉 I have to say, the game is one of the best I have played in years. It has a unique quality among MMO’s in which random cooperation […]
Well, from the looks of it, you would think I had fallen off the face of the Earth for weeks at a time, considering how often I post to this website. I find myself to be a man who is an odd combination of too busy and too lazy to get some projects done in […]
Let’s face it: mobile devices are taking over every aspect of our digital lives. Why sit in front of a massive desktop tower, or lug around a 10 lb laptop, when a tablet PC, or even your cell phone, can do everything you need to do both on and offline? With seamless integration into social […]
