Google desktop invades your TCP/IP stack.

Google desktop, it owns your internet

I’ve recently discovered Google Desktop’s dirty little secret. When you install it, it hooks into your TCP/IP stack so that it can add it’s content to it’s own site when you perform a search on one of google’s domains.

Every Internet transaction from that point on has a little bit a google in it.

I’d remove it… but I’m google’s bitch. I may whine and moan about this, but google owns me.

Ubuntu you too, buddy!

So, I’ve started using ubuntu, breaking things left and right, fear me!

Visual Studio

Well, I got my free Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Beta 2 disks today, all 3 of ‘em.

So far, I haven’t gotten it installed because SQL Server 2005 has to go first, and it decided to install onto my C drive, even though I selected H. I gotta completely uninstall and reinstall everything to get it to work. How annoying.

I’ll give updates later.

Banning Bananas

Lets see.

Google bans wordpress.

Brilliant.

I won’t go in to it, but to say it was cheap of google.

Elsewhere…

Chris Pirillo held his weekly Radio Show, but this time, he included GoToMeeting software, to allow people to see examples as he was talking about them.

For you WP folks, he actually went, with about 60 people watching, to opensourcecms and showed off wordpress to them, saying good things about it.

In a couple of days, I do plan to do a substantial post… now that I’m on Planet #wpirc I can actually imagine a few new people reading my posts, so I’m going to have to start actually posting content. Well, occasionally, god knows you can’t get enough of my random musings :)

Oh, and thanks to element for finding this nice page about admin themes, the grey one should hold me over for awhile :)
