Level of Geekdom

I actually meant to blog this awhile ago, but I have a question. Is there some level of geekdom that’s passed when your wife sends you an email, in which she has a small list of chores that require your attention and she ends with the instruction to make sure you add said list to your Wiki?

If there isn’t, I think there should be.

    Yesterday, between running around to meetings (I was out of the office attending meetings regarding other, personal, interests, bet you didn’t even notice?) I loaded up Trillian and ran into an error connecting to ICQ. Last night I did it again. I made a note to check the Trillian user forums and see if this…

  • Doesn’t get more fun than this

    Yes, since I’m responsible for the “pool” laptops that are available to our attorneys for use outside of the office, and since they’re all Dells, I spent a good part of my Monday checking for laptop battery recalls. Yippee for me! I’ve gotten through about half the laptops we have and haven’t found one yet…

  • On my own

    Yup, the wife is off for a long weekend before starting her new job, so I’ll be home alone this weekend. And, of course, we all know what that means. Playing with Techie stuff! First on the agenda will probably be upgrading Firefox now that version 1.01 has been released. Other than that, I have…

  • Well that was fun..

    For those of who who wrote in support of my decision to take away this site as an excuse for THC to not deal with resolving the real problems, thanks. For those of you who think I caved to censorship, well believe whatever you want to, I don’t really care. It’s over for now and…

    Last night’s projects, while staying up to watch the Islanders shutout the Sharks 3-0, (whoo hoo!) included downloading a copy of Newsmonster and upgrading the Red Hat 7.1 Workstation to 8.0. On the Red Hat front, I still haven’t found a solution to the network card problem on the server edition of Red Hat, but…

  1. If your chore-wiki was online I could just add things myself. Wait, your chore-wiki is never going online now, is it?

  2. lol – underthethumbgeekdom?
    the funny thing is that I was thinking of something similar to that this morning so that Kristen and I would both know what needed doing, rather than both of us paying the same bill!

  3. At the beginning of this year I added a wiki to our family site to maintain a couple of ‘shopping’ lists(grocery, dept store, home improvement).

    It’s been working really well as opposed to our old pen & paper lists that always got lost or weren’t updated.

    Best part is, it’s a wiki, my wife needed a mere 10 seconds of training on how to add to/modify the lists.

  4. I can’t put it online, the Wiki has much more than my to-do list, it has private information about my workplace, my former workplace, a volunteer organization, etc. I don’t think you’d want me putting that online dear. Besides, it’s on my thumb drive so I can access it even when I don’t have internet access. 🙂

    Now if I could figure out a way to share my Outlook calendar with my wife, that would be nice.

  5. you used to be able to post your free/busy info to a website and as long as you/angela had the url configured in outlook you’d both be able to see the information.
    The real solution of course is for Outlook to be ical compliant and make it easy to export the data so you could import it into the mozilla calendar application.

  6. credit must be given to the Mrs. for knowing what a wiki is.

    If I said ‘i’ll add that to my wiki’ I would just get my face slapped.
