Want some Google Wave?

I recently sent out some invites then realized on the next batch of invites, I'll have nobody to send one to.

That's why I made a private To-Be-Invited Wave invite list for myself. If you want to be on it so I can invite you to Google Wave when I get more invites, leave me your email in a private message or PM me on GeekShed IRC. (You don't have to ask if you can PM me on there, just do it.)

Halloween!! But not in the Netherlands

One of the big days of the year in America is Halloween. People live up to it weeks before. Like the angry video game nerd (Cinemassacre). The whole month October was Halloween movies.

Kids dress up in their hero or villain and go from house to house to collect candy, TP someone's house or throw egg to it. Other people go watch horror movies in the cinema.



I don't know if the thing of the children is right, but this is… Continue

SIS Partition Loss in Microsoft Windows 2003

In Microsoft Windows computers, SIS (Single-Instance Storage) is an ability of your system to store a copy of the content, which multiple computers or users share. This is a method of eliminating the data duplication and increase efficiency. In some situations, you might come across SIS partition loss situations after the SIS links, which were backed up on your computer that is running Microsoft Windows 2003 are restored on the another Windows system. This behavior of Microsoft Windows requires… Continue

The Raven Program

Parody of:

The Raven

By: Edgar Allan Poe



Once upon a night so clearly, while I web surfed weekend dreary,

Over many a strange and spurious websites of abandoned lore,

While I whistled, nearly singing, suddenly there came a pinging,

As of some one loudly ringing, ringing through my hard drive's snore.

`Some advertisement,' I muttered,… Continue

Games and Consoles

Which game system do you prefer to game on, Xbox 360, the Wii, or the PlayStation 3? Maybe you’re not a console person, maybe you’re a PC gamer?



I have many games laying around here, and most of which are for my outdated PS2. I do have a few games for the 360, I have none for PS3 because I do not own one, nor do I own a Wii. I do have a few games for my PC though, and I do play them regularly. It’s usually a choice between Halo 2 and GTA IV, and Halo usually wins out. I do love my… Continue

Luxurious Laptops

Dell-Adamo 13"

HP-Envy 13"

Apple-MacBook Pro 13"



I like Dell Adamo, it is thin, lightweight, and faster, but does not have optical drive. It costs 1499 dollars to buy Intel Duo core su1.4 Ghz processor with 2GB RAM and 256MB shared GPU.



HP Envy 13 15 looks like MacBook Pro but it is much better in the screen resolution, brighter. It has 512 MB GPU. It is thin and light weight. But according to Engadget.com, It has problem with L and R fingers… Continue

Love me or leave me.

I know I act confused, I'm perfect just like you.
Do what you want, but there's no one in this world who would die for you.
There's only me: Love me or leave me.
You won't ever find anyone around as good as me.
There's only one choice you don't wanna grow old all alone.

Love me or leave me - Rooney
