CLI vs GUI and Gettin' R DONE!
Posted on July 6, 2012 at 3:30pm 0 Comments 0 Likes
Just a quick post to anyone stopping by my blog. I am wondering if there are many people other than myself who do more thru CLI (command line interface) instead of GUI (graphical user interface). It dawned on me that majority of everything I do on a computer is via CLI. Pretty much the only thing I do via GUI is surf the web (i.e. view Facebook, write this post -- which btw can be done via CLI, etc...) I am even getting to the point where checking email via MUTT feels more natural than thru…
Continue Best Buy Hard Drive Data Transfer Speeds Misleading? Or Just a Simple Mistake in cApitaliZAtioN?

For a few days I have been researching hard drives. In due time I am doing to build a pretty cool new desktop for the purpose of storing all my data which seems to be scattered throughout my house on numerous difference devices. At any rate, I like to window shop Best Buy and then make purchases from other online sources to save money.
One thing I discovered, which I am curious if it was intended on being misleading, or just a simple accident is the technical specs posted…

There are many different social networks online today, each having their own special trait that makes them unique. As far as a few of the more popular ones goes: Digg.com, StumbleUpon.com, Twitter.com, and Reddit.com, which one is your favorite and why?
With that said, what do you get out of social networks? For example, many bloggers use social networks to drive traffic to their content. Other users are simply just people who find that social networks are a great way to find… Continue

How Many Old Cell Phones Do You Have Around Your House?
Posted on January 28, 2009 at 12:20am 22 Comments 0 Likes
I was cleaning out one of my junk drawers today (trying to make it NOT a junk drawer) and I dug out four old cell phones that ranged from mid 90's up to early 2000's. I have to say that mobile phones sure have come a long way. How many old cell phones do you have around your house collecting dust?
How Often Do You Use Your Mobile Phone For Blogging?
Posted on January 26, 2009 at 10:46pm 1 Comment 0 Likes
Not sure how many WordPress blogging geeks we have here, but I am a full time blogger and online publisher. I use WordPress for just about every site I own. I use WordPress both as a blogging platform as well as a CMS.
With that said, I have a Blackberry and this little phone sure is capable. Using my mobile phone coupled with the Mobile WordPress Dashboard plugin, I can literally operate and maintain my blog using my mobile phone. I can write posts, moderate and reply to comments,… Continue
