\nWelcome to our new listeners from the Czech Republic and Saudi Arabia! We’re up to 32 countries now checking out the site or listening to the podcast. <\/p>\n
I’m still riding high from the Expo – it will take me WEEKS to slow down the enthusiasm.<\/p>\n
\n\t\tsuch a nice guy
\n\t\thelped me with a problem…
\n\t\tCable Yoyo at http:\/\/www.cableyoyo.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n
\n\t\tlow cost, low storage quotas but infinite bandwidth. not sure this will work for me…<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
\n\t\t“your news your way” is their tagline
\n\t\tsorta like podcasting, the user experience is the same but the method is different
\n\t\tuser picks type of content (news, politics, technology…)
\n\t\tuser prioritizes types of content 1-5
\n\t\tuser picks time content needs to be ready
\n\t\tdownside is it requires a client (PC only) but it sends the content to iTunes. Macs have to go to the website every day
\n\t\tinteresting idea, might work<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
\n\t\tActive X controls & VB Script
\n\t\tfine if there’s no evil in the world
\n\t\tcan’t get rid of IE, embedded in OS in Windows
\n\t\ttell about setting proxies in IE so your kids\/spouse won’t accidentally use (give listener to Leo credit)
\n\t\tteach how to make Firefox act like it’s IE – makes it work for sites like USPS.com for shipping labels – tell about usps also!

<\/p>\n<\/li>\n\n\t\tLast week was fun, I let the kids and Steve pick the movie – “House of Wax”. Now I promise this is a family friendly show, so I won’t get into details on this one, but I’ve got to say there’s something wonderful about watching Paris Hilton meet her demise in a terrible way! It’s gruesome, gory, distasteful and scary, but it was enjoyable in a sick kind of way.
\n\t\tThis week we watched a nicer film – “Kicking and Screaming” with Will Farrell. If you’ve ever had kids in soccer, you like Will Farrell, or you like predictable “Bad News Bears” kind of films, you’ll like this. Robert Duvall and Mike Ditka play interesting but predictable characters but I liked them. A few of the kids are really fun, the plot surrounding Byong Sun is pretty funny.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
Bob Marcus from jogtunes.com sent me some info on his site – this is a good case of solving a problem people have. Both my husband and my friend Suzanne have been struggling with how to easily compile a list of songs to jog\/run to, and it looks like Bob has done it.<\/p>\n
\n\t\tGreat help from them – Steve helped me to get my feed to validate at http:\/\/feedvalidator.com<\/a>
\n\t\tI was lost but he helped me understand the errors
\n\t\tHe’s working on an update to the software that helps to get feeds to validate, like the changes that Apple throws in there (they changed one thing from being upper case to lower case) and other problems. Expect an update next week.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
\n\t\torganizational tool
\n\t\timport pictures, text files, whatever
\n\t\ttagging allows for smart groups like in Tiger
\n\t\tdifferent groups can contain the same files
\n\t\tbetter to see the the little demos they have online – very good at explaining what it can do
\n\t\tI use it to organize my podcast ideas, graphics I want to use, I’m even using it to keep track of things for my home life like home improvement!<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
