mac vs pc

Do you use a Mac or a PC? Personally, I would say that I’m a PC running Linux.  Although I do use Windows for business needs.


Disk Usage Analyzer

I love the Disk Usage Analyzer in Linux because it’s functional and a freaking awesome piece of digital artwork.

It displays your hard-drive contents in an interactive manner. As you click on different squares, the program tells you the folder name, location and size.  pretty cool.

fantastico software

Upgrading your Wordpress blog to the latest version is a breeze with Fantastico.

For those of you who may not know, Fantastico is a software package that allows you to install many other free software packages to your hosting account, like Wordpress for example.

By the way, I provide Fantastico for FREE to all my web hosting clients.

The one-click installation script does the following for you:

Upgrading…

  • Initializing Parameters – Done.
  • Generating MySQL Backup – Done.
  • Generating Files Backup – Done.
  • Copying New Files – Done.

In addition:

  • It backs up your database
  • It empties the database
  • It imports the backed data into the database
  • It moves the template data back to your public_html folder

Upgrade completed

I love it!


moo business cards + new title

I just ordered a bunch of shiny new business cards from Moo.  Moo is a web 2.0 app that let’s you customize both sides of the card.

On the backside, I chose to have a the words

It’s all about the user experience

against a solid background color, (I actually picked 10 different solid colors).

On the front, I uploaded a custom logo and added my standard contact info.  They are being printed in the U.K. this week. I can’t wait for them to arrive!

Oh yeah, and since I made the cards, I decided to give myself a new title….
