I spent most of yesterday spring cleaning: my computer. What’s new?
- Windows Vista reinstalled. It used to be 64-bit, and now I’ve gone back to 32-bit for greater compatibility.
- Windows Vista SP1 installed. Things seem to be a little faster. I’ll see how I feel after a week.
- I’m also trying out the new Windows Live desktop applications.
- This post is being written in the new Windows Live Writer.
- So far I’ve been impressed at how easy it was to set up to use my special "Blogger blog published to my own domain" setup.
- The application is really clean, and seems to do everything I want.
- I’m inserting a picture below to test out how that works … when blogging with Word 2008, that did not go so well. And check out that nice drop shadow on the picture. Lovely.
- Notice I’m writing a numbered list with sub-bullets (rather than numbers). This is something that the Blogger online editor does very poorly. Hopefully this shows up well once uploaded.
- Live Photo Gallery and Live Mail are looking pretty promising too.
- This post is being written in the new Windows Live Writer.
- Hey, cool, Back-dent (the opposite of using the tab key to indent) works 🙂
Anyway, today is basketball. Some friends are coming over and we’re going to have pancakes and root for Texas and Davidson.
