Calm Down!!

June 14, 2008 By Robert Owen

This is just a little rant. You probably don't want to hear/read this but hey, this is my site so here goes. This past Christmas my lovely wife, knowing the geek I am, got me this great t-shirt. If you are a geek like me you can determine the subject of this shirt quite easily. Now, if you can't tell... I'll fill you in. This shirt's subject is the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy. ( a most hilarious movie BTW) So... How/why is this a rant? Well. I wore this T-shirt this … [Read more...]

May 20, 2008 By Robert Owen

Found a contest for all you Twitterererers out there.. There is a contest going on over at Coppyblogger.com.. Can you tell a story in exactly 140 characters? That's the idea behind the first ever @copyblogger Twitter writing contest. It should be a great exercise and a lot of fun. Being constrained to exactly 140 characters will spark your creative juices and force you to focus stringently on word choice, sentence structure, and even punctuation. So, twitter up your story and go … [Read more...]

Remote Desktop /console change in Vista SP1

April 16, 2008 By Robert Owen

A while back I blogged about Remote Desktop in Windows XP. Since the start of my Vista Quest I have continued to use the Vista remote desktop with great success. That is until I installed Services pack 1. Here lately I've been noticing some differences when I log into some servers I manage. Nothing drastic mind you but there were some things that were no longer the same. So I got to Googeling... I use the /console when logging in to these servers. For those who don't know the /console … [Read more...]
