Earlier I complained my bookmarks weren’t where I expected after upgrading Firefox. Well, my Thunderbird client also upgraded and after restarting, it asked me to setup my email accounts. That freaked me out. I didn’t want to lose all my email.
After some investigating, my profile was still alright. For some reason, Thunderbird wanted to create [...]

I went to retrieve a bookmark in Firefox today and they were all gone. I instantly started to panic. I had so many bookmarks. This was not good.
Was it because of the auto-upgrade of the browser to 1.5.0.5? I couldn’t find anything on the net to indicate that others were having the same problem. But [...]

One of the blogs I regularly read is 43folders. It’s a great blog/site with some wonderful tips and life hacks.
A while ago Merlin left a blog entry giving shaving tips. At the time, I thought it was odd finding a post in my reader on shaving. But I skimmed over anyway and there was stuff [...]

A few days ago, I metioned that I am starting a quest to evaluate which site I want to use to host my photos. Michael Arrington of TechCrunch has given me a good starting point.
It seems that Photobucket seems to be the most popular. So I will start my search there.
I have a good starting [...]

Ever since I have heard the word that Opera is making a browser for the Nintendo DS, I have been very excited. About a month ago I read a review of it. It seems it will be missing a few minor features such as not supporting pdf files, video, or sound.
Yesterday I saw a video [...]

When I first got my iPod, I immediately searched for a method to copy music to and from it without using iTunes. After some searching, I was led to SharePod. It has been a great utility.
Despite a few shortcomings, it does what it needs to do pretty well. It has saved me in a few [...]

I am starting a search for a photo sharing site. Currently, I am using flickr and it has suited my needs up to this point. But I am running out of space for my free account. I am going to evaluate more sites before buying a pro account.
Here are the following requirements that I have:

Harriet the Tortoise recently suffered a heart attack recently and died at the ripe old age of 176. Can you imagine living 176 years?
She was born around 1830. Charles Darwin himself collected her when he visited the Galápagos Islands in 1835. Too bad she is only a tortoise and she didn’t keep a journal [...]

Today I watched the World Cup final between Italy and Germany. It turned out to be a great game. For some reason, I was cheering for Italy to win and they did in penalty kicks.
It’s too bad Zinedine Zidane decided to do what he did to get sent off. And then he ends up winning [...]

The holiday is over and I have returned from vacation. My wife and I spent some time in Cancun last week. It was really good to get away. We definitely need to do it more often.
We got home on the July 2 to be able to spend the 4th with our family. Our neighborhood had [...]
