Links and stuff

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Yeah so yesterday at ITEC was basically a waste. To say I was underwhelmed by the show would be understating the fact. We’ll see how today goes, but I’m not going to kill myself to get back for any of day 2 today. (Hey, it still beats sitting in my office..*L*)

I’ve got a bunch of things to try on that USB adapter issue thanks to this page, but I honestly have a hard time thinking that if the USB controller was such a problem, it would come preinstalled that way! You’d think they would have fixed that by now, these aren’t the latest model Sony’s. Of course, I’m also going to try re-installing XP service pack 1, again, even though it came preinstalled, I’m wondering about whether the USB patches were applied correctly.

Bunch of links I saw on Scoble’s blog today that I want to look at further when I have more time:

KC Lemson has a bunch of Outlook tips.

Tony Toews’ website for Access

Weblogs and Job Hunting

Offline blog writing tools for PCs and PocketPCs

Tekguru is UK’s largest Pocket PC website

That should keep me busy tonight…

    Back at work this morning. Quite enjoyed the three-day weekend, hope you all did too. Didn’t spend alot of time working on tech projects over the weekend, just a little bit, along with a little bit of movie watching, picture taking, sleeping, hanging out with Angela, etc. It was probably needed with what’s coming up…

    So I installed SP1 for Internet Explorer 6 yesterday and immediately had some problems with it. I don’t know how, or why, but immediately after restarting I opened up IE and what sounded like a mangled .wav file played for about 30 seconds, then stopped. But no other sounds will play because the sound device…

    Shannon made an interesting point in the comments on that last post about IT outsourcing: “What gets me more is that you have to have patience with your co-workers as they repeat the same mistakes again and again (like trying to send an email with a 15mb attachment). When you outsource this kinda stuff, people…

    Someone, who shall remain nameless but who is related to me, (although not in my immediate family) forwarded me one of those chain letter email thingies. Not a big deal, she’s been known to do this from time to time, but in this case, she didn’t take out any of the previous forwarding information. This…

    This post goes out to the two other subscribers to the mail list that sends these posts out when they are posted. Apparently it hasn’t been working since last week. I hadn’t noticed, because, like I said, there are two of you, and it’s just not something I check all that often. My bad… Anyway,…
