OpenOffice 1.1 available

According to this article the new version of Open Office is available for download. I tried out 1.0 a long while back and found it a little too limiting for what I use Office for, I wonder if it’s worth a look at the new one? Might make an interesting comparison to the Office 2003 I’ve been beta-testing. I probably won’t have time to look closely at it for a little while but it may turn into a project as the weather gets colder, and the weekends get less occupied.

    According to the announcement, it seems this maintenance release is mostly about trying to combat comment spam. Good idea! Of course, I haven’t even managed to find the time to upgrade the Child Abuse site to 2.65, let alone 2.66. I’m now two releases behind, gah! I’ve got some work to do! Follow these topics:…

  • Lack of communication

    We didn’t get back from the in-laws until late yesterday evening. With all the wedding stuff and all the various family members to visit with (They are a big, Southern family, there’s a bunch of them, and they all love to tell stories!!) I never even fired up the laptop all weekend. In fact, I…
