Tossing memory chips?
I just bought more memory for both of my laptops.
I removed 256 chips from each of them. I can’t think of anything to do but throw them in the garbage except that I see crucial sells the one I just took out of my Toshiba M200 for $43.00 and the ones I took out of my compaq are also $43 each. So that adds up to $129 and suddenly maybe I don’t know if I should just chuck ’em. Perhaps I’ll give them a try on ebay…

Need searching for your website?
Congrats to Scott Cate and company on a killer feature of EasySearchASP.NET. The tool lets you incorporate a search engine very easily right into your own website. But the new feature is “hints”. It is REALLY cool. You can see it best right on the EasySearchASP.NET site by searching for something on that site. On the home page is a search box. Just go start typing in it…..
Cool, huh?
You don’t have to rely on visitors knowing how to use google’s site:www.mysite.com parameter to search your website.
I like it. But the hints is super duper slick.

New Icons to be included with VS2005
Soma announces that we will have new icons so we can build programs that look like the programs we USE! Hip Hip Hooray!!!
many cheers for Microsoft responding to this very loud roar from developers.
I know I was one of bajillions who asked for this.
The icons and bitmaps that are given to us in VS2003 to use in our apps are the same as the ones that have been around for as long as I can remember … maybe even since FoxPro 2.5?

RSSInclude – quick way to feed rss onto a site with html
RSSInclude was a big help to me this morning.
I was able to very quickly get the Aceh Aid Bucket Brigade blog feeding on to the IDEP Foundation Aceh Aid site. I’d like to be able to fine tune it more, but it does the trick. Thanks RSS-Info people.
