Lets get this madness Started
Posted by Doc Winters on August 21, 2008
I’ve always wanted a blog, if only to get my opinions, my ramblings or even the humdrum of my life out there.
I’ll be protoing a few different ideas and based on what works and what doesn’t will dictate what gets more exposure.
Version One will have two sections,
Each Blog will Start with the standard What I’m doing now thing:
My life under the Scope: is the basic humdrum of my life, its generic information about where I am at the point of time as well as a recap of what I’ve done between the last post and this one.
The Tech Deck: I am a Technophile, I have a lot of tech I use regularly, and things I still have yet to get. this section will be about what I’m using, how I’m using it and what I want to get. I might even do reviews if I get something new.
Okay, here we go XD
What I’m doing now:
Listening to: Music: Metallica (Master Of Puppets-Welcome Home (Sanitarium))
Netcast: This Week in Tech ep138: The Inventors Dilemma
Book: Re-Reading Halo: Contact Harvest
Game: Re-Playing BioShock
Website: twitter.com Follow me on Twitter
My life under the Scope:
This week is going to be very slow for me, as I will not be working, so it means that I’m sleeping later which is good, as I didn’t like waking at 5.40, though for a reason I can’t remember, I woke up at 7.30 this morning thanks to my alarm…there had to be a reason, but nothings come up so it mustn’t have been important. I spent most of the day blasting Splicers and ripping sea slugs from young girls… of course I was playing Bioshock for the second time through. I rushed it last time, this time I’m taking it slow, trying to get the achievements I didn’t get. I was also listening to Twit (This week in Tech) podcasts, which is a great way to get a laugh and to learn things in the tech world.
The Tech Deck:
I’m upgrading my trusty and ever faithful Toshiba A200 X01 again tomorrow, going from 2gb RAM to 4gb RAM, and from Vista Basic to Home Premium, though after researching the issue, and listening to the advice of those who know better(nods to Leo Laporte and Paul Thurott from TwiT) I will not be upgrading to 64-bit as I will only be getting 3 gigs out of the four, and you only really need 64-bit if you’re using more than 4gig. I have been planning on doing this for a while, but I haven’t had the time to do so. This upgrade will assist me in connecting my 360 through Windows Media Center and to connect my Zune directly to the console as well. Though I’m having some issue considering that the Console is coded to Australia and the Zune hasn’t EVER been released here…but I’m sure that I’ll figure something out by then.
Well this is my first official blog, stay tuned for another trip through to the Dark Side XD
