Orkut

Now, keep in mind that I’m not the biggest fan of social software. I don’t really find it all that useful, but I didn’t say anything about Orkut while everyone else was talking about it, because I hadn’t ever actually tried it. Last night Josh was kind enough to send me an invite, so I decided to go ahead and sign up and try it out for myself. Keeping in mind that my expectations going into this are very low, we’ll see over the next few weeks whether it does anything to change my impression of social software. If nothing else perhaps it’ll help me find a few more interesting blogs to read. If it does that, I won’t consider it a waste of time, if it does anything more than that, I might just come to veiw it as useful..:)

  • It’s official!

    I am officially a stud, according to Google: Search for “do that to me one more time i can never get enough of a man like you” Someone actually searched for that, and actually came here.

  • Challenging week

    Should be an interesting week. I’ve got three new machines and an AV upgrade showing up, probably tomorrow. I’ll have to deploy those three machines, making sure to copy files, emails, calendars and all that stuff for those three, plus a fourth that is being moved from one user to another. Then I’ll have to…
