Welcome to the Site
This is a very central point for me. In other words here is where I try to put all of my media in one place. I hope to set up my own website at some point that will allow me to accomplish this better with a really good theme for video blogging (might be custom designed by me) and a page for Social Media. The while site will run off of a very modded version of wicket pixie. Stay tuned for more this summer. Also look for the twitter feed in the left side bar and the posts that are below are the same posts that are posted on my main site. I think this is a great place to gather your feeds into one and I love what Chris has done with it.

Monitoring Your Mac's Heart Rate
Have you ever been working on your Mac and then it just all of the sudden slows way down? Well this probably means that you are running out of RAM. But, how would you know this? Well, you use some type of monitoring tool such as Apple's built in System Monitor. But this requires you to have a whole window open, and therefore it is not very convenient. There is an alternative though. iStat menus. This allows you to monitor your computer from the menu bar. (that is the one with the clock in it) Th… Continue

Renaming Multiple Files at Once in OS X
I know we have all been there, you have a folder full of files and you need to add something after the name of each of them. This is a task that most people choose to do the hard way, by renaming each file individually. However if you want a program to rename all of the files for you, then you might have invested in some software that can do that kind of stuff. What I bet you didn't know though, is that you can do this for free on any installation of OS X. The application you will be using is ca… Continue

Translating Things for Free
Problem: you are surfing the internet and you come across a site that has the information you need, but it is in a language that you can't read.
Solution: Google Translator
In the video below I show you how you can take advantage of the free Google Translator, and its abilities to translate… well just about everything. You can translate text, or even enter the URL to an entire website and it will translate it all for free. Enjoy.
