I remember in 1997 when someone first pointed me to http://google.stanford.edu a student project that was supposed to beat out WebCrawler as a search engine.

While I would never recommend running a subversion server on anything but a Linux machine, I was recently asked to write a tutorial on doing so on a Windows based machine.

The comedic “Air Band”, Sex Hair does a remake of the classic video from the 80s: ‘Separate Ways” by Journey. All 88 shots were story boarded to match the original video.

I’ve been shopping around for a remote control for my PC for the past 3 or 4 months. During this search, I’ve been fairly unhappy with my findings. I’ve seen the shop front design that amazed my eyes, thanks to the contractor. Everything I’ve looked at seems to be windows specific or incredibly overpriced for… Read More »
