Why in the world can I not assign custom colors to categories? Perhaps more importantly why in the world can I not select the core primary and secondary colors? I know some of them are close but there’s not a YELLOW.
Why can’t I assign a completely solid color as well. All of these have […]

I just published a post over at Uncover the Internet about an application called RescueTime that allows you to track what applications and websites you spend all your time on during the day.
My initial thought was that this would be an interesting feature to get built into the operating system itself. What better application to […]

I made the “professional” switch over to ASP.NET development awhile back and began using Visual Web Developer Express (VWDE) for all my business clients with the day job. I’ve still kept Dreamweaver 8 installed though because I have a few clients that still use it so it’s nice to be able to open and view […]

I’ve thought of another feature I wish existed for a laptop. I frequently work on people’s computers for them. If I have them bring me their desktop machine I tell them to unplug everything and don’t worry about bringing me the monitor, keyboard, mouse, speakers, etc. I’ve got all of these things at my house […]

One of the things that I cannot believe doesn’t exist yet, or at least I haven’t found it, is the ability to completely control my PPC-6700 (or any smart phone for that matter) from my laptop’s keyboard and mouse.
If I’m docked in my USB cradle and the cradle is attached to my laptop, why […]

I may be a weird one when it comes to my cell phone etiquette but here it goes.
Just because my phone rings doesn’t mean I’m going to answer it.
This could normally be because of two things:
I don’t have time to talk to you right now
I don’t recognize your number
In either of those events […]

One thing I wish Windows Live Writer would do is make the keywords functionality available from the “Properties” window a Tag Provider option along with the other tag providers like: flickr, BuzzNet, Technorati, IceRocket, etc.
I’ll say it again as well, you really need to provide a function for me to browse through my uploads […]

I’m looking for the extension that I used to have installed in Firefox that would let me open a page in a tab, within Firefox, in the IE rendering engine.
I found the IE Tab extension by PCMan (Hong Jen Yee), but the version currently available only works with Firefox v3.
I looked through the version […]

Have I shared recently (or ever) how much Microsoft Office Publisher irritates me? First there’s the file size of the end resulting file itself. Those suckers are massive. I used to get the files regularly from web clients and their questions would be:
Can you open a Publisher file?
How can I e-mail this to you?
When […]

It’s not a big deal, but why can’t I ignore networks that are available in some of my “normal” areas that I never use and are always secured?
Wouldn’t it be great to limit your display to only your preferred networks that you regularly connect during your average day of work or whatever?
I would […]
