Blogger Meetup NYC

October 31, 2006

I talked earlier about being in NYC. Mark and I are hosting a meetup at Gatsby’s @ 53 Spring St. The R train stops right there. We’ll be there about 12:30.
The agenda? Nothing. Football. Good eats and drinks. Meeting people. This is an unofficial b5media event. In other words, we ain’t paying but we’ll be [...]

Blackberry Assistance Needed?

October 31, 2006

I have a new Blackberry that I rely on in my new found ever-mobile role. Blackberrys are not new for me. I supported them regularly at my last job. But at my last job, they were locked into Blackberry Enterprise Servers, Exchange and ever-vigilant spam killing. Now, I have both my Gmail and b5media emails [...]

Random NFL Thoughts

October 29, 2006

As a Ravens fan, you know I love to make this point.
Just how bad do you have to be to lose to the 1-5 Oakland Raiders? Huh, Cowher? Roethlisberger, do you have an answer? What you say, Hines Ward? I mean really… the Raiders? Surely you could have won that game, eh?! ;)
Oh well, the [...]

NFL Suicide League – Players Wanted

October 29, 2006

I’m going with an experiment starting this next week. I’ve got 6 people but really I want 15+.
The idea is a different kind of fantasy league. Each week you pick ONE winner. You can’t pick a team you’ve picked before. If your pick is not a winner in said week, you’re out. If your team [...]

Absentee Ballot Record

October 27, 2006

I’m planning on being in NYC for the general election so I registered to vote absentee this morning. This was actually good because it gave me a chance to vote away from the pressures of the polling booth, tap into resources like blogs and do some homework on some of the ballot questions.
In Maryland this [...]

How To Configure your Mac to Send Mail Regardless of Where you Are

October 25, 2006

When I went fulltime with b5media, one of the requirements I had for my system was that it had to be a Mac. Having never used a Mac before, the response was with a bit of skepticism. First, they are quite expensive and I haven’t even got the software I need yet. Secondly, why use [...]

October 24, 2006

Looking back on three months with the new design here at Technosailor, I decided to look at some of the things I’ve learned along the way. Being that I am now equipped with a new Macbook Pro, I decided to do it as a video and see if I could learn a thing or [...]

Road Trip

October 19, 2006

Tomorrow morning, I’m headed to Toronto for a weekend huddle with the b5media “Ops crew”, Jeremy Wright and Mark Evans. I’ve opted to drive for a couple reasons, one being the chance to see family in Buffalo. So, as is typical when I travel, I invite anyone in central Pennsylvania, Western New York (Rochester, Buffalo) [...]

Speedlinking: October 19, 2006

October 19, 2006

Internet Explorer 6 days are a thing of the past. Microsoft announced the final release of Internet Explorer 7 for Windows XP yesterday. I’ve used IE7 since private beta days and I must say, Microsoft has done a smashup job with IE7. Please, please, please… if you’re an Internet Explorer user, go graduate to the [...]

Technology Writers Needed

October 18, 2006

As the Tech Channel Editor, it’s my job to scope out and recruit new bloggers to enhance the channel. Now that I’m full time with b5media, I have more time to be able to really examine the channel, figure out where we’re going and guide the ship in that direction.
One of the thing that the [...]
