IE7 Beta 2 is Out!

Tue 31 Jan 2006 6:26pm

Well, I almost installed the newly released Internet Explorer 7 Beta 2. Luckily, I found out just in time from the comments on a post on the IE blog that it will install over my IE6 and not uninstall. Since I need IE6 for web dev work, I can’t install it at this point, which […]

alwaysBETA: Bright New Star of the Blogosphere

Mon 30 Jan 2006 12:45am

Tue 24 Jan 2006 1:13pm

I’m back in Boston and just finished my first class of the semester. It wasn’t that bad! I’m actually really looking forward to the semester, since my schedule is a lot more interesting than usual. Last semester was mostly technical classes for my major. I enjoyed it, but I think I got a little burnt […]

Oops, My Start Menu is Showing

Wed 18 Jan 2006 3:30am

I just popped open my Start Menu today (yes, my de facto operating system is Windows, I’m sorry) and it struck me as funny. The top icons (for Internet and email programs) are fixed based on the default programs you have set for these tasks, but the rest of the menu is based on your […]
