SyncToy Beta

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

I saw mention of a new Windows XP Powertoy over the weekend, so when I saw SyncToy was available this morning I grabbed a copy for the XP desktop at the office. My hope was that this would ease the struggle I currently have with OneNote. Notably, I like to keep a copy of my work “notebook” in a separate folder within my laptop “notebook” in case I need any of the information I have in there while I’m away from the office. The burning question was whether this XP Powertoy would sync with remote folders on a machine running 2000. It does. I like this, although I still have to remember to run the sync.

    By now I’m sure you’ve all heard about the security hole in Firefox, and the “recommended fixes”.

It’s those extensions and add-ons…

    While I remain busy finishing up some work projects, I figured I’d drop a line and let you all know what to expect to see around here while I’m gone. First there’ll be Gnomedex reports, and pictures. I won’t be doing the real-time blogging that others will be doing, mostly because I can’t pay attention…

    Interestingly, Intuit is now saying maybe they were wrong with the anti-piracy stuff they built into TurboTax. It’s interesting though that they claim to want to be very open about the fact that they weren’t installing spyware, but they chose a product that wrote to part of the HD you can’t see. Not the best…

  • A random thought

    Just something that occurred to me today when I had someone looking at my Flickr photos. I purposely resize all the photos I put up in my Flickr account, and also in the galleries to be smaller than the original, for a couple of reasons. One, so they load quicker, two, to keep the storage…
