I’m very glad to hear that the leading mobile manufacturers have finally agreed to a standard interface for power charging for their mobile phones. I’m especially pleased to hear that they’re considering the micro-usb interface which many cellphones already have.

As you can tell from this blog, and from yesterday’s post, I like to play around with programming code, such as visual basic, c#, and web languages like HTML, and JavaScript.

I installed VMWare Server 2.0. Thus far, my recommendation? Don’t. It’s shit. It sucks. I hope it can figure out someway to redeem itself.

I attended a Microsoft road show to day that spoke of Small Business Server 2008 and Essential Server 2008, their inclusions, target market and other nitbits. The roadshow also spoke of the new Live experience, Popfly, and a few other Microsoft technologies, that, while not entirely original or new, were quite impressive.

Oblivion, from Bethesda. I really enjoy this game. It’s so easy to lose several hours of ones life to this, much to the eternal annoyance of Bunny, can’t blame her, really, but the glorious sumptuousness (ouch, horrible grammar) of the graphic engine, artificial intelligence, and general eye candy, just makes it…

It’s a printer that, well, prints itself! That’s just cool. More info here.
