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.

    If you are still using IE6, or are supporting users who do, you want to take a look at this workaround posted at PC-Doctor that will protect them from the latest spyware exploit, at least until the next patch cycle.

    Thanks to a pointer from the OneNote Tips list, I found a couple of new OneNote Powertoys that involve sending images to OneNote, either using a virtual printer driver to print to OneNote from any application, or Webpage to OneNote, which will load a webpage as an image.

  • The big debate

    I have to admit, my expertise when it comes to Powerpoint is limited, to say the least. So I’m asking, in PowerPoint 2000, when you use the Insert menu to insert a multimedia file into a presentation, does it link the file, or embed the file? And if it only links the file, what steps…

    Random cantankerous thoughts that I’ve thought this week: People who feel the need to remind you how open minded they are, aren’t. It’s probably time to bail when the association you work for decides that the very core of what it does, isn’t something they can sell to people and their own marketing people start…

  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.
