So I'll be picking up a PS3 between now and the 29th, when GTA IV is scheduled to be released. While I'm not getting a PS3 solely for GTA IV, the release of the latest iteration of one of my favorite franchises is indeed a major motivating factor. If it were the only factor, then I would also have …

So I was cruising the interwebs, and as I was checking out the daily news brief over at MaximumPC.com I noticed an ad from Gillette for some contest where you could win $30K. Interesting. So I clicked through and listened to Tiger give the run down on the contest. Then I started looking through the…

Okay, so I'm not technically what most people would call "chubby", but I certainly feel chubby. I'm nowhere near as active physically as I was 2-3 years ago, and it's finally slowly starting to manifest itself. Everyone still says I look in shape but I know the truth. I see myself naked in the show…

Digsby overview

I've been using Digsby now for a week, and I must say that I'm extremely pleased with its performance so far. For the past several years I've been using Trillian Pro as my IM client since it aggregated all my IM accounts under one roof. Since then however I've become increasingly mor…

So apparently my forums, which have been hosted by Invision Power Services since 2002, have finally gone offline. I haven't been able to access them for a week now and the reason isn't a time-out, but a "server not found". Uh oh. In all fairness though, the IPB hosting was supposed to be $10/mo but…

We have a bio field in the article admin, but I've never used it and I have no idea where it actually shows up. If I can get Superpig to make the bio fi…

I apologize that there's no featured article today. I was feeling a little sick - don't know if I actually was or not but being that every other member of my family in the house (4 of em) have been sick over the past 2 weeks I figured best not to take any chances and so stayed in bed most of the da…

Last week I walked through the process I take once every week to publish the newsletter, this week I'm going to go through the even longer process of publishing a Featured Article on the site.

But first, a word from our sponsor...

Just wanted to draw attention real quick to the slew of new books that…

I'm the gold kite in the middle of the formation


If anyone here does sport kiting, I posted some new photos from this past weekend, where I was down in Wildwood flying with a whole bunch of Revolution people, including two members of the famous team iQuad. While I do fly dual-line as well (heck I go…

Intro

Well, this should be interesting. I decided last week to start a new series here in my journal to see if anyone at all cared about how I do some of the things I do here at GDNet that most of you witness the fruits of every week. I've always enjoyed Behind the Scenes stuff for just about anythi…
