Sorry, sorry, sorry.

I have many apologies to give, for not blogging for an eternity, for closing down my web server, not returning calls, etc. I'm like that, I let things get in the way, but now I'm back and things are a changin'

Most of the images here on the blog were hosted on my old host, which I am no longer using. I can't afford the cost especially since I haven't been using it lately. Luckily there are many free places to host text, photos, etc and I'll be using those to maintain this and my new blog (about gardening.)

I can't promise that I'll be better about posting here, but you will see me more often in the near future.

For those wondering where my time has gone, I have one word for you, "Podcasts." If you don't know what they are, google it... (For a hint download, install, and run iTunes.) More on that later.

I've been doing some other things as well. My search for a good calendaring application still runs strong, nothing looks good yet. I've been digging into XPCOM, XUL, etc. A week ago I wrote a Perl script that organizes my photos into folders by year/month/day/hour which I now use to transfer images from my camera to my computer. I've also been checking out flickr, evdb, and some other sites worth mentioning. Channel 9 at Microsoft is very interesting, they have video interviews of all sorts of people from Microsoft. I'm very interested to use Vista (Longhorn) and Avalon (recently changed to some other name.)

Soon I will go through the history of this blog and get things back on track, until then please forgive me... :)
