Google vs. MicrosoftYahoo

Google vs. MicrosoftYahoo


Nothing sums up my opinion about the Microsoft bid to buy Yahoo better than this cartoon from MSNBC. The cartoon was created by Daryl Cagle for msnbc.com and used for the story entitled Why Google will remain the king of search. Guess nobody at Microsoft read the Peanut Butter manifesto.

Once You Go Dual, You Never Go Back!

by Vinny Carpenter on February 2, 2007

It's true - Once you go dual, you'll never go back! :) I've been running with a dual monitor setup for a couple of months now and I can't believe how I got by without a dual setup. In the picture below, I've got my 2nd monitor relegated as my TV monitor for my media-center PC.

Proof that TestNG is THE best unit testing framework :)

by Vinny Carpenter on March 29, 2006

BEA's dev2dev is running a new poll that is asking the question, Which unit testing framework would you prefer to use? I guess I was the first one to hit the poll as the results speak for themselves :)

The Simpsons Intro reenacted - with real people

by Vinny Carpenter on March 5, 2006

If you are fan or even a casual viewer of The Simpsons, you have to see this video. Apparently, the British Satellite provider Sky created this awesome parity that reenacts the Simpsons intro with real life actors. :)

I am such a loser :)

by Vinny Carpenter on January 10, 2006

Discovered EgoSurf via. Steve Ruble's blog and so I gave it a shot and scored 9130 points. I need a life :) The idea is simple - You enter your name and your blogs web address and EgoSurf searchs google (MSN, Yahoo, Technorai, Del.icio.us also) and finds links to your blog which is used to calculate your ego ranking. Pretty interesting and a great way to kill a few hours at work ;) EgoSurf is the creation of Jason Hyland. [image]

F*** You iTunes!

by Vinny Carpenter on December 5, 2005

iTunes, my default music player for everything is starting to piss me off. The new feature where it stops downloading podcasts because you haven't listened to a particular podcast in the last few days is really annoying. Have you experienced this? If you don't listen to a podcast for a few days, iTunes stops downloading the latest episodes and annotates the subscription with a '!'.

itunes-podcast2

Clicking on the '!' brings up this wonderful dialog box:

itunes-podcast1

I know someone thought this would be a useful feature but it is really pissing me off. Why not offer an option in the preferences for this? If you can't manage your own subscriptions, let iTunes do it but if you have a brain and a big hard-drive, I'll download anything and everything you tell me. Wow. That was harsh - I really must be missing Hani's bile now that he's good team player and part of the JCP ;)

How much is your blog worth?

by Vinny Carpenter on November 8, 2005

Now that Bubble 2.0 is in full swing, I decided to give Dane Carlson's , Tristan Louis inspired application that measures your blog's worth based on inbound links as measured by Technorati. Based on today's link count, my blog is worth $19,194.36 - What a bargain!! I guess I'll take that in small denomination, thank you :)
