Reading over lunch

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Getting a small chance to play catch up while I eat lunch, since Angela went home sick. (The heat in the building has reached a point of making her nauseous, maybe it’s time to send everyone home!)

Phil’s got a list of ways to surf blogs at random:

NextBlog! gives you a random recently updated Blogger-powered blog.

random blog gives you a random blog from the blo.gs database (not necessarily recently updated).

RandomFreshBlog is my version of the weblogs.com version of NextBlog! that Dave wants – I’m using the blo.gs changes.xml file rather than the weblogs.com version, since blo.gs’s file is a superset of weblogs.com’s.

Following those should be a fun way to find more blogs, if I ever find the time! 🙂

Blogrolling.com has new Blogroll Me! feature. (thanks to Useless Miscellany for the head’s up!)

Today is Doc’s 55th birthday. Hope it’s a good one! I’m looking forward to hearing him at Gnomedex next month!

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

    I have to admit, my expertise when it comes to Powerpoint is limited, to say the least. So I’m asking, in PowerPoint 2000, when you use the Insert menu to insert a multimedia file into a presentation, does it link the file, or embed the file? And if it only links the file, what steps…

  • Inexpensive HTML editors?

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

    So Angela’s work is looking to purchase an inexpensive Windows based HTML editor. They suggested FrontPage, after deciding that Dreamweaver was probably too expensive for them. She’s not the worlds biggest Frontpage fan, (neither am I), so she’s looking for some alternatives that’ll be cheaper, or the same in price as Frontpage, but still be…

    Doppler 2.0 RC1 is out. I downloaded it this morning and checked for the bug that I had to work around in 1.1.1 involving using space savers by date, and sure enough it’s fixed. And that’s not even the best part about it. It also supports multi-threaded downloads, resume downloads, and comes with a light…
