I took my first trip last Tuesday night with my new Garmin nuvi 660 and as I expected, it worked perfectly. I only had one problem, and I think it’s because my eyesight isn’t what it used to be. I came to an intersection and the nuvi said ‘turn left on such and such a […]
For those of you having a hard time keeping up with all the toys that have been recalled, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission has put up a page on their web site with a complete list, the newest at the top.
Last night, I went to the CT Dot Net Users Group meeting at the Microsoft Farmington office. The featured act was It’s All About The Tools – Episode 1 starring Russ Fustino. The coolest thing I learned about was Windows Live Writer – you can use it to post to just about any blog – […]
This happened to me yesterday and I remembered that Rob Giordano (Crash), a Microsoft MVP for Expression Web, had discovered and shared the solution in the microsoft.public.frontpage.client newsgroup.

From BillS’ IIS Blog, FrontPage Server Extensions (FPSE) for IIS7 RC0 have been released. I still haven’t upgraded any of my PCs to Vista yet, but this gets me one step closer. The other thing that needs to happen before I upgrade is that the Vista team has to fix the crash that happens when […]

But that’s OK. I’m here for ReMIX07 at the Cambridge Hyatt (room with a river view, BTW) and all the events are here in the hotel. The keynote starts at 9 so I’ve got to get moving if I’m going to make it. There’s almost 800 people registered, so it should be a great conference.
I’ve always wondered what my sites looked like, and more importantly, if they worked, on a Mac. I’ve got my eye on the MacBook Pro, but I’m waiting until Leopard with BootCamp comes out. Today, I downloaded Safari for Windows, and sure enough, I found a drop down menu on one of my sites that didn’t […]
