minor success

i got a little bluetooth item that plugs into my usb port on the laptop and sticks out about an 1/8th an inch. is nice. so finally today i got around to setting up bluetooth hotsync from my treo 755p SUPER PHONE. lol. it really is super. anyways, now no more cables for hotsyncing. the other nice feature is that as long as i have my phone on me, i can just flip open the laptop and in a few clicks i’m online using my sprint treo’s cellular internet connection. i think it’s 2g on these treos but still is fast enough for email and some flash videos like youtube. my other minor success today was that i actually went to work and put in 10+ hours even tho i’m sick as hell. waaa, i know, but i did it.

moved

and it went well. successfully moved from verizon to centurytel service area. reduced 25 ph lines down to 20. setup a 12 line hunt group and several fax/data lines. 15 active workstations with a domain / dns / file server installed. from comcast copper to dsl copper (waiting for actellis system install to be completed so we can get the 10/2 connection.)

firefox vs chrome

i have officially started reaching for my Chrome shortcut before the Firefox one now. i have grown tired of having to do so many updates, so frequently when I just want to browse to read some quick news or pop in and check my email real quick. updates are necessary but bothersome. i will certainly continue to use Firefox (Ff) because of it’s so useful extensions and the help of such for web programming but for my browsing, it’s now officially Chrome for me.

i’ve got blisters on my fingers

well, not really, but it’s starting to feel like it. i’ve made like 9000 RJ45 patch cables tonight and i’m finally pretty good at it. can’t wait to go to bed so that i can get up nice and early and go work on my day off. har! riiiight. but for reals, will be working on a saturday, moving all the workstations and one of the servers south to the new locale. cheers – enjoying one of these at the moment -> www.arrogantbastard.com

so, got to test some of the capabilities of the wp blog machine.insects

liking wp 2.7

i have to admit, it’s been a while since i’ve done a clean fresh install of wordpress. i’m really liking what i see. so far i’ve just been doing some admin stuff, choosing a theme, etc. doh! just realized i’m posting in admin mode. will need to get used to using my users login later. anyways. gears is somehow tied into my wp admin and my chrome browser, will also need to lookinto that more.
