I'm Making a Difference...

I don't IM much these days due to work load, but I still do every now and then. When I do I primarily use Windows Live Messenger (aka MSN). Well, I just saw this program today and figured, why not. Just by adding a few characters to my personal message, Microsoft will donate some amount to the charity...

Mouse Wheel in VB6

Now that VB8 has been out for a few months, and I'm using it as much as I use VB6 (mostly on VB7), I've finally found an answer to a problem that has bugged me forever. OK, well, not forever, but for a long time. Has anyone ever noticed that the scroll wheel on your mouse doesn't work correctly in VB6...

An Introduction to F#

The next WI .NET Users Group meeting is on February 21st. I'm looking forward to the next meeting where our very own optionsScalper (OS) will be presenting " An Introduction to F# " ( register here ). Why am I so interested? Is it because OS is such a hottie? While one could make that case...

Cropper and TinyPic

By now you may have heard about Cropper by Brian Scott (I've even mentioned it before ). It's a nifty screen capture utility that I originally found linked from Scott Hanselman's Ultimate Tools list . I've used it a few times, and it's pretty cool. You can optionally choose to create...

Ditching Google AdSense

So the Google AdSense thing wasn't working for me, and I'm not referring to the fact that I only made 60 cents. OK, so maybe it has a little to do with that, but the real reason is that the ads were totally out of context. 99% of the ads that were displayed were about "blog". The other 1% was about tsunami...

Casey's /CameraFlow App

Have you seen the new app that casey (or "the lower cased one", as OS likes to call him) wrote? Remember the old wooden labyrinth game? The one where you had to twist the knobs to tilt the deck so the little silver ball would roll through the maze without falling in the holes? He wrote that...

SlickRun

The other day I started using SlickRun . It was in Scott Hanselman's Ultimate Tools List . I'd seen it a while back, but finally downloaded and installed it the other day. Here's a screenshot: In short, I like it a lot when I remember to use it (which is spotty, but getting more frequent...

Trying Google AdSense

If you're viewing this page in your browser (as opposed to an aggregator) you will now see Google AdSense link units in the navigation. I thought I'd try these out for a while. As you can see, they're smaller than the regular Google ads that you might have seen on other sites. I imagine that they will...

That's My Name -- Don't Wear It Out

So Gerry posted about Sean's posts about commercials, etc. Lot's of interesting stuff there -- you should read it (after you're done reading my post, of course). For me, the real interesting part was near the end where he's talking about Cropper , which is a simple tool to help you take screen shots...

MSN's Scott Isaacs and the Secret TechEd

Wow. So a lot of stuff has happened since last night. For starters, when I was checking my blogs this morning, I saw that Scott Isaacs from Microsoft (a different Scott Isaacs) has mentioned me in his blog . I'm honored. (I wonder what the odds of him being at Tech·Ed are?) Apparently he does some of...
