AT&T Wireless DNS Cache Poisoning

Apparently, we can't all be safe from DNS cache poisoning. So if you're browsing the 'net on your brand-new iPhone (or AT&T Tilt, in my case), you may want to... do something. Complain to AT&T perhaps. Image included after the jump.

New Website Design Coming

I don't use my website much due to its design- it's rather dark and dreary. I thought I'd cheer things up this week by working on a new design the past couple days. The new site will clean everything up and make things a lot more efficient, not to mention visually pleasing.

Another Test Article

I'm currently testing Windows Live Writer 2008 and evaluating it for about five different purposes. Please go ahead and ignore this post.

Sample Post

I'm testing out Windows Live Writer, and for now, I'm liking what I'm seeing. This is the Writer beta that Butterflies have been welcomed to, and it's truly remarkable.

Wednesday Recap

Windows Vista is apparently good, Spencer spotting, and some upcoming stuff.

Keynote Recap

Overall, an uninspiring keynote to attend. I showed up a couple minutes late, but here's what I gathered were the big points.

Possible Session Attendance

I've gone through the session list for WinHEC 2007 that Microsoft has put on the web for attendees, and I've decided on a few I would like to attend. This is what my [highly tentative] schedule looks like, and it doesn't include the press sessions that may come up.

WinHEC 2007

I'm registered for WinHEC 2007, and I''ll try to make it a point to hit up the keynote speech and first two days of the conference. I will also try to do some blogging from the conference (if I ever finish this design), and will try to meet up with contacts online at the conference.

New Computer

It's finals week, and my main box - the machine I live by - has decided not to work anymore. I've narrowed down the hardware failure to my ECS 848P-A motherboard, a Fry's-bundled motherboard that I got when I bought my 3.4GHz "Prescott" Pentium 4 H-T, one of the best chips in its class at the time.

Since the sort of motherboard I require with my current hardware is kind of rare, and since the computer was starting to show its signs of age, I went ahead and did a full upgrade.

Installing Windows Vista 64-bit

A good friend of mine, Kristan Kenney, has posted a guide on installing Windows Vista 64-bit Edition. The guide covers everything from driver installation to codecs to optimum performance of the operating system. It's a thorough reference if you're just starting out on 64-bit Windows, as I will be soon.

The Audacity of Microsoft Marketing

After the creation of Windows XP, Microsoft had a lot of bright ideas about how to improve access to documents and information across computers and networks, and was working to do so in a graphically-pleasing yet secure manner. They called this vision "Longhorn".

Skip ahead three or four years, and now Windows Vista is out. No argument that Vista improves information accessibility, but now Microsoft is downright lying and saying that Windows Vista has fulfilled the Longhorn vision.

Getting Close

I have an extremely busy schedule nowadays, but this past week I sat down and did some work on the site just to hep take it off my mind. I've finished writing some bits for the skin and now have a good amount done. From here on out, it's downhill as far as work goes.

GWOC Project Update

For the few of you that have been *select* testers (aka people that are on my contact list that I've been bugging about this design... sorry if you fit in this category), you have probably seen this, but for the rest of you, I'd like to present the immediate availability of GWOC's close-to-final design with sample content.
