Active Desktop Calendar

I had not found any other nifty software since this week. It’s called Active Desktop Calendar by XemiComputers. It stays over your desktop and shows all the scheduled appointments in your calendar.

  Best thing? It synchronizes with Google Calendar and Outlook. Yepee!Why didn’t Microsoft think about this?
You avoid having to run any program to actually see [...]

Searching for Blogs in WordPress

A difficult task. That’s what I called “Searching for Blogs in WordPress”. I have fumbled and stumbled around wordpress.com trying to find blogs of my interest to no avail. “Tag surfer” is to find things within the same blog. “Blog surfer” does not produce much from the theoretical thousands of blogs wordpress is supposed to [...]

Slow computers, what do you do?

I call it SCS. Slow computer syndrome. I would like to know what you do when your Windows PC gets slow. Although it seldom happens to me now, it used to happen a lot in the past. It may be that anti-virus software has gotten better or that there are less out there. People are [...]

Macintosh Windows

I love my Macs, but one thing baffles me. Why is it that the windows do not stick to the width of the screen and every so often I have to resize them to fit? I am upset about this and hate it every time it happens. (I know how to [...]

Resizing, capturing

Today nothing seems to go right, so I post a drawing that I made when nothing was going right and I managed to smile and doodle happy thoughts.
I am still battling with the configuration of MacJournal for WordPress in my Mac. I have found several blogs of people complaining about the same thing, so [...]

Lean is better

 I don’t need the big names to create a “xxx.doc” or a “xxx.xls” file that are compatible with the world. There is 602 PC Suite. It has a wordprocessor(602 Text), a spreadsheet(602 Tab), a photo editor called 602 PC Photo and an a photo album organizer.
 

 The best of these program is that they load quickly, [...]

Like programmable units

I am jus thinking…that we are like programmable chips, like hardware running programs. We are born like a blank slate, staring at the world without any understanding of it. For many years we are tossed around from hand to hand, then we grow up and one day, we have the awareness of being a person, [...]

BlogDesk

 I meant to edit this but forgot, now I am doing it.
Dissatisfied with the  blog editor I paid money for, I came to BlogDesk and have been using it since. It is simple, easy to use and does the basics very well. My kind of software. I don’t like complicated programs unless I have to use [...]

The Jing Project, a good experience

This program is constantly present as a yellow dot on top of all the windows and I can call on it to capture video, images, edit them, save and use immediately without leaving my active windows. I am beginning to discover how many things it can do with it.
It’s fun to work with, and the [...]

WinJournal

I bought WinJournal to edit my blog OFFLINE, and be more efficient. For me it was fairly inexpensive ($26) since I had already bought the same program for my Mac and they had a deal. Guess what??? It did not work with WordPress, my main blogging site!
Since I [...]

Macro Buddy, my Kind of Buddy

I cannot work in my PC  without  Macro Buddy. Do you type your address, resume, phone number or login usernames and passwords daily??? Do you type certain data many times a week in your PC and you are tired of this? Are you a writer and want to save passages you refer to in different [...]

Vocation, computers, gadgets

 When I was in college I did not know what I wanted to study. I was in the first year of science, but did not know what to select as my major for the second year when I needed to define mysubsequent courses. I liked engineering and I liked the sciences and I liked the [...]
