And they’re off..

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

The office is closing a couple of hours early today to give everyone a head start on their Thanksgiving holiday. (I’ve still got a couple of things to finish up, so I’m blogging this now, instead of right before we leave.) Since we’re driving down to West Virginia to see Angela’s parents today, the extra couple of hours of daylight to drive in is nice, to say the least! We’ll be down there all weekend, so I don’t know what sort of updates will be going on here. I’ll have an internet connection, and free time, but I’m also planning on getting a bit of studying done for that A+ test in between spending time with the in-laws and stuffing myself full of food. I doubt I’ll be doing much work on the site, or reading of blogs, but if something strikes me, I’ll blog it, promise!

In the meantime those of you in the US have a great holiday, and those of you outside the US, well, have a great Thursday. 🙂

    Andy’s post today reminded me of a similar experience I had. I submitted a resume in response to an ad on a nationwide job board. Actually a reputable one at that, but obviously they don’t control everyone who posts jobs there. Within minutes of sending the resume in response I got an email, letting me…

    Regarding my previous question from the weekend about where you draw the line between keeping up a good relationship with your users and letting them walk all over you with non-work technology issues, I would mostly err on the side of letting them walk over you. There’s definitely a line that needs to be drawn…

    Andy, not to be confused with Andrew from the last post, got the comments within the RSS item to work in Blogger. I’m going to have to take a look at what he’s done compared to what I tried and see what I was doing wrong. Later: Andy is not using BloggerPro to generate his…

    Chris was kind enough to leave me the link to info on the new MyDoom.B variant in the comments. Looks like this sucker will launch an attack at Microsoft instead of SCO, and will mess with your host file to try and keep you from getting AV updates. Nasty little bugger. Thanks Chris, it’s always…

    Some things I’ve been looking at. PC Magazine’s Top 100 Websites. They even offer a download that sticks them in your IE favorites for you, or you can just grab the HTML file and import into other browsers. Looks like there might be some interesting finds in there. Doc points to Suits and Geeks, which…
