Week of Stress

What a hectic week I’ve had, between getting ready for my dad’s visit and dodging some of the drama from my family it’s been a pain. My family on one side I try no to talk about because they are not what I would call moral. I love them but some of them I really am distancing myself from. Other than that my brothers are cool, and I love my sister. It was nice to see my dad, and hang out with him and my mom. We were everywhere while he was here, Tomball, Katy, Houston, and of course Pasadena. Kat… Continue

A Personal Review Of The New Macs

So, on October 10th, 2009, Apple came out with brand spanking new Macs. They made updates to the iMacs, Mac Mini, MacBook, the mouse and remote. Here's my impressions of what I seen on the Apple website. The new iMacs: I must say, I'm rather impressed by the new design. I love that it has 4 USB ports and now an SD card slot just below the SuperDrive. They now come in 21.5 and 27 inches for a bigger display for watching your HD content. Sadly, no Blu-Ray but if it was added, it would really make… Continue

My Interest - A Windows Into My Life

I figured I’d take the time to say some of my interest. People often find it funny that I still watch Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network. This is because at heart I’m still pretty much a kid. I find shows like Drake & Josh, and iCarly to be hilarious. and yes I do watch SpongeBob, LOL. I’ll watch Johnny Test on CN, and of course later when Adult Swim comes on I’ll watch Family Guy, King of the Hill, and especially Robot Chicken. I love anime, Big O is pretty good, my favorite of Course is Drag… Continue

A quick update to my "interesting times at work" blog post

I've now completed my two weeks as a booking in clerk in the gatehaouse at work. It has been really interesting. It is only the second time in my life I have used computers as part of my everyday job and I am loving it! Today my boss called me at home to say he is extending the trial by 4 more weeks and would I be interested in continuing the role as he thinks I am doing a good job. This must be the first time in 27 years of working I have ever been told I am doing a good job by anyone, let alo… Continue

Between being a single user and a volume (corp) user

This is hard to write. Not sure if much will come out of it, but let me try. This is about my reflections on, how the way you obtain and use software, change as you finish education, move out of home and spend your 8-10 hrs in a workplace. There's also the educational institute in between, but that's a mix sometimes...risky or not, that's for the immediate authorities to tell.

In the starting, maybe in school years, when you start on your first desktop P

Online Colleges.

A little over a year ago I was interested in re-attending college. Well, to be perfectly honest that was far from one of my priorities. My mom and Uncle had attended both an Online College and a Campus. Both of them had seemed to get more out of attending the Online College. Anyway, I was attending a Job Fair over a year ago when I had walked up to the University of Phoenix booth. The guy at the booth mentioned they had programming courses and talked me into attending. I have attended a local C… Continue

Why I post my life on Social Sites

There are people who think that it’s crazy to tweet where you’re going, and where you’re at. My mom and her husband are some examples of people who think that way. I post everything from Ping.fm and so it goes to Facebook, MySpace, Twitter, Tumblr, and ultimately ends up posted on friendfeed. I have my reasons for doing this. One I don’t want anyone every accusing me of doing something, or being somewhere that I’m not. Another is I like friends and family to have an idea of where I am so if som… 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

It has been a little while.

It's been awhile since I've signed onto Geeks and actually did anything. I try to come here regularly and stay up to date, but lately I haven't had the time to really interact and communicate, so I've decided to share a bit of an update. Music, music, music, music, music, music....and more music. Striving to make good music is a great thing, but actually doing it is difficult. I've been spending long hours writing, composing, and recording new songs - instrumental and lyrical alike. Ever since… Continue

Expressing Myself

I’d like to take some time to express a little about myself. For the past two years my life has really been through a rough change, but in the end it’s made me a stronger individual. My views now are not what they were two years ago nor are they the views I had as a rebellious 16 year old. I say that because when I was 16 I had a view of the world that was just not right. My grandma kept telling me “Michael as you get older your view of others and the world will change, just watch.” I used to l… Continue
