TECH SERVICE: the free, and unequaled, wordpressdotcom is unsurpassed

Saturday, June 28, 2008

I’m a WORDPRESS fan. I finally found something it doesn’t do that it should

Subject: [WordPress #ZRP-768006]: [unknown] [reinkefj.wordpress.com] Maybe I’m obtuse How do I put a table in a post?

Howdy!
There is currently no icon to insert a table. You must do this through the HTML view and actually type the tags. Please check out the following resource:

MEDIAWIKI has is it and I was looking to do a table in RFL when I couldn’t find the icon I needed.

I just pasted a table from WORD and it worked. So …

This doesn’t change my opinion that the free, and unequaled, wordpressdotcom is unsurpassed.

McBookaire: Stupidity is a good way to leave yourself without power.

Friday, June 27, 2008

Last night, didn’t notice the plug was out and McBa was sitting in hibernate. Today noticed it. Battery is under a quarter. Wonder what happens when it goes flat? Any way, cant take it with me today to doc office because it’s so low. Maybe that is a design problem. It should shutdown after hibernate for say an hour?

TECH SERVICE: Vangard requires Adobe PDF Reader! Yuck!!!

Vangard requires Adobe PDF Reader! Yuck!!!

Adobe stinks. It’s a pig in terms of size and complexity. You put out a pdf. Why can’t I use an Open Source free product to view the pdf? And, it used to work. SO you’ve introduced a change without notification. Just like your split authentication change, it does zip from my perspective except make my life more difficult.

TECH SERVICE: LOGMEIN free

Has worked very nicely from the road. The hotel’s wifi is deadly slow. But moving up to the Verizon wireless broadband gives good performance. (It should for those prices.)

Thursday, June 19, 2008

Up to now, McBa has always been close to LUGGABLE. For passwords, for files, for the ‘chuck it moments’. Now we are going to work it away from LUGGABLE, More than a day away. Many mies away. Here’s a real field trial. We’ll see.

*** end quote ***

Yeah, LinkedIn wasn’t doing anything!

As a commenter recently and harshly took me to task about!

So, do you think those folks GOT ANYTHING for their 53 Mil?

:-(

Now what will they try to do to the users. Still no competitor in sight to knock them off.

TECHNOLOGY: Take care GOOGLE DOCS

Tuesday, June 17, 2008

I was using Google Documents to write my story. I’ve been burnt several times in doing this on various platforms and softwares. This was no different but surprised me. I was banging away stringing words and poof! Poof?! All my pearls disappeared. I was in a dither. Poking around it was was back to its original state. Lost about an hour’s worth of work. Kept looking and thinking. Found something in the Help about ‘revisions’. There I found my awol text. replaced by something. I copied it to an email and gave up in disgust. Argh!
