Well tonight turned into a server cleanup night. The night consisted of the typical deleting of unused databases and old development files as well as basic file reorganization. But now, the ftp site is cleaned up and databases are all accounted for. So yea, it was a pretty boring night. Oh, I also updated my twitter page. See it here.
Hi I am just testing my friends WordPress plugin, Birdfeeder. Check it out.
I was just looking at the Huffington Post web site and I recognized the place in the main picture on the site. I am 99.99999% sure that the shopping center pictured is the old Montgomery Ward department store in Winchester, VA. The banner on the front of the building has a telephone number listed on it that starts with 540(the area code for the Winchester area), which further backs up my claim. I just wonder, out of all the out of business businesses, why did they choose one from Winchester.
If someone could help me confirm my thoughts, that would be great!
Well all of a sudden, Devon’s computer has been acting wonky. That’s right I said wonky. And by wonky, I mean slow, unresponsive, and just plain acting up. Internet Explorer and Google Chrome seem to freeze the computer all of a sudden and right clicking anywhere will also make the system freeze. I have run an anti-virus scan, and nothing found. I have been told to try a Disk Clean program and then Defragment the PC. After all of that, I have been advised to run CCleaner.
Do any of you have tips or tricks that could help this issue?
I was just looking through my Gmail settings and I spotted a themes tab. I was like, “Woa, what is this.” So I clicked on it and noticed that Gmail users can now select from up to 31 different themes at this point. No clue if they are going to add more. But I like Gmail even more now. Finally a useful addition by the Gmail Team. Good work Google!! Below is what my Gmail Inbox looks like now.
Back at the beginning of February, Devon, Jackson and I took a trip to the Ice Works ice rink in Aston, PA to do some photography work for the new ice dance couple of Morgan Matthews and Leif Gislason. We knew going up there that some of these photos might be used on their official website. But as it turns out, the entire layout for their site uses my photos. This was really the first official shoot I had done for the figure skating world, and needless to say, I was a little nervous about the whole thing, but they took it easy on me and made me feel comfortable as a photographer. It was a total pleasure working with Morgan and Leif. Hopefully, I will have the opportunity to do more shoots in the future.
The link to Morgan and Leif’s site is here.
Devon and I have signed up as ChaCha guides. It is a fun way to make some extra spending money by answering questions texted to the service from a cell phone. I have made about 8 dollars already.. W00t..
Try it out, text a message to 242242. Maybe she or I will answer your question.
Well I am in the market again for a new cell phone. I am just not sure which one to purchase. Of course I would LOVE to have an iPhone. I just do not think that will end up being a reality. You have to buy the silly data plan with all iPhones and that is $30 a month on top of the voice plan. Way to go Apple and AT&T, you now have one less iPhone customer.
So, the question now is, which phone should I get? Devon and I have our service with AT&T, so that limits us to their phones. I am looking at a few phones now.
They all seem like pretty good phones. I like the idea of having a slider phone, but I know the front screen will scratch easily. I really like Motorola phones. I currently have the SLVR which came with iTunes pre-installed. It was a great little phone. I am not sure if I would like the Blackberry as much, I have never used one, but the displays on theme seem really great.
I am not much of a txt’er, but may occasionally, and I know I will not be using it for internet access. So I am just not sure which phone to get.
Any thoughts?
Thanks to Devon for getting the better photos online already. Click here to see them.
