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 […]
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 […]

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.
