Like alfred I don't have any contacts that are using wave apart from a few from this group here so not really had much chance to explore the full potential of wave. I think it will be a great tool for collabiration on projects, a good way for team...

Ohio? No one ever talks about Ohio. I am from Ohio and go there every December. However, not close to Youngstown. None-the-less, it seems the whole state is the same in the way of retail. The closest Circuit City was going out of business, leaving...

thanks for that, do you have any video online that you took with the camera, it would be good for him to see a real life sample of the quality.

I've never been much of a book person I like to find all the tweaks and workarounds by trial and error, and with Windows many errors lol.

I hate the jump bar with its silly little thumbnails and the only way to get rid of them is to disable Aero. I don't at all like the start menu. Click 3 times to get to a program in not my idea of productivity lol. And since I didn't read enough and purchased Home Premium there is no group policy editor which makes it harder to set changes.

The Winodws 7 install here went quite smooth. I can't say I like everything about the new version but... its seems stable enough. Hope it goes as well for you.

Water is my arch ememy

I think I am going to ban water from my house. Two weeks after my son threw my Blackberry into the bath, the other day my wife decided to tidy up while I was in bed. Now I am not complaining about that, but she put my jeans into the washing machine after emptying my pockets... or so she thought. I asked if she had taken out my 4Gb flach drive from my little pocket to which she returned a blank look. I was devistated, I had redesigned one of my sites and the backup files were on it. Not only had… Continue

Never leave a phone sitting near water when there is a 2 year old about.

The other night while I was bathing my son, he was sitting on my knee while his mum was drying him. I had left my blackberry sitting on the radiator, he grabbed the phone and threw it in the bath and there was a few inches of water left. I did not drop my son while diving for the phone, I just screamed like a little girl telling my wife to grab the phone. Lucky for me it was still in its holster but it was wet...very Wet. I took the battery, sim card and MicroSD card out, dried it with a hair dr… Continue

New Site Launch - www.barryfinlay.com

I just want to let everyone know that I launched my new site today, www.barryfinlay.com. It's basically a personal blog but I also use it to promote my business and my love of photography. I have always had my own sites but this one has been an ongoing project for some time now and I finally managed to get the site online. This has been my favorite site to work on because it is the 1st wordpress site I have done and it has been eventful, I have never managed the magic 5 minute install... maybe i… Continue

R.I,P. Reggie

Today is a sad day. I looked out my kitchen window this morning and I could see the back legs of my cat Reggie sitting behind my car. At first I thought he was just lying in the sun but I thought he was too still. I got Leanne out her bed to watch Jack while I went out and checked. It was horrible, I will spare you the details but it was obvious that he was dead. His collar was lying across his body. There was a pool of blood in the middle of the road.

What I think happened was someone must hav… Continue
