Smartphones

Just got my Cingular 3125 and starting to get the hang of it all. Really like how it syncs with Outlook. Now to get Outlook and Thunderbird to sync as well.

Checked out the Windows Mobile website … think I want to try to write some applications for hand-helds.

Warning to Commenters

You may think it is cute to leave comments on my blogs that are essentially an advertisement. I will not give you advertising space. When I find ads or offensive comments, they are immediately removed.

 

FavIcon from Pics

How often do you find a site that is offering a service that you say, “Wow! Why didn’t someone think of this sooner?”.

I built a FAVICON a couple years ago but realized lately that I had the syntax for displaying it all wrong. I did a Google for favicon and found FavIcon from Pics.

What is so cool is that I can create a picture (simpler is better) in my favorite graphics application and upload to them for an immediate conversion. Now when you go to my main site, your browser displays my stylized A in the address and if you save the Favorite, in the list.

National Atlas

My whole life I have been fascinated by maps. I think it started when my parents gave me a globe and atlas while I was still in kindergarten. The National Atlas has such things as GIS layers of territorial acquisitions, election results, places, nighttime lights, etc..

Now if you are a total map freak (like me!), you will love a list of links to Anonometric maps. I'm still looking for a wall map of St. Louis that I like.

Jensen Harris: An Office User Interface Blog

Were you like me? You got the email that you were anxiously awaiting to find out that you had been accepted as a ßeta tester for Office 2007 yesterday. Like Jensen here, Jensen Harris: An Office User Interface Blog; I immediately began downloading the various files.

Between Office, Outlook and Project (all applications that I support), the download was over 700 MEG.

Tonight I will install and surely will have a report for you.

Foreign Exchange Rates/Currencies, Key Cross Rates and Currency Converter - MarketWatch

I have often been fascinated by the fluctuations in Foreign Exchange. I am not so bold as to trade in currency like some friends do but found this web page interesting: Market Overview: Foreign Exchange Rates/Currencies, Key Cross Rates and Currency Converter - MarketWatch. It is cool how it constantly updates.

Larry's Project Dev Blog

I casually mentioned to my manager that I had taught a class on MS Project at a previous job. Next thing I know, I am agreeing to teach a seminar to a bunch of our managers.

Here I am searching for the crazy answers at Larry's Project Dev Blog; need to learn quickly how to write Project VBA.


Did I mention that the class I previously taught was on version 3.0 and was 14 years ago?

Office 12 Zone

I am anxiously looking forward to Office 2007 and one of the best places to pick up info is on OfficeZealot.com. Most of the bloggers on OfficeZealot are Microsoft people with the latest, straight poop.
