Found a very odd bug on my MacBook Pro – no audio in browser-embedded Flash.
Meaning anything hosted by YouTube is a ’silent’ movie. Sometimes that’s fine. Though, mostly it’s not (especially with the recent unBooming).
I’m always looking for a ‘download’ link, or a QuickTime option – some alternative to the embedded Flash. None to be [...]
Running across this interview with Jeff Zucker, pres. of NBC, really says something. Some monster media companies are starting to see the light.
Can you put the Apple iPod deal into perspective?
It is part of our overall digital strategy, something Bob Wright had laid out for us for more than a year now, which is to [...]
OK, you Mac folks, I want to hear from you on this one:
My brother and his family are a-1 Mac users…always have been. I’m a PC gal myself, having worked in less-creative-yet-nonetheless-fulfilling fields.
When my parents decided to join the Information Generation a few years back, they were more persuaded by the voice of my [...]

It’s a spiffy little app that works well and supposedly a major new release is due soon. Do you use software for time tracking? If so, which [...]

I wanted to turn off the built-in firewall in Windows XP (my test machine – I work on Macs) so I went to the Control Panel and clicked on Security Center. So far so good. When Security Center opens up you are greeted with a window, inside which has three main sections, each with a [...]
Get ready for a whole new experience.

Truer words may never have been printed.
So, I wanted to set up a Windows development box at home to do a bit of .net work on the side. .Net is one of those Microsoft technologies that I’m actually warming up to. [...]
Kitchen remodeling seems to be the hot topic at usability conferences (and it has been for a few years). Every sample project I’ve worked on in conference tutorials has had something to do with a kitchen redesign and its technologies. I’m thrilled, of course, I THRIVE on soon having my own dream kitchen.

This is the second week of WBEZ’s membership pledge drive (Yes, I’m a member, you should be too.) Their pleas for memberships and pleges got me thinking about their revenue model. It’s definitely not a bad one. While I’m happy to pay WBEZ a couple times a year I grumble about the annual costs of [...]
