    Today,…

    Monday, April 28th, 2003

    Today, Apple announced two new products/features to their great line of products. The first one is this,The new ipod with dock
    the new iPod You may have heard of the old iPod, but this new one makes the old ones (and I quote from Walt Mossberg on The Screen Savers tonight) “look like whales”. The new ones are SOOOOOOO thin!! I know it’s hard to do on dial-up, but theres a link on the page that says take it for a spin. Look at it. Ain’t it beautiful? I can’t stop gaulking over it.
    ???I know I know, I have one. But this new one is AWESOME. I absolutly love it. And for non-Mac users, they have Windows versions. Of course you need a firewire(IEEE 1394) port but you can put a firewire card in your current machine. As I write this, I can’t get my mind of the little thing!!!

    ???I guess I should mention the other feature Apple annouced today that they have a music store. This is where you buy music on itunes in this case. Totally legal. $.99 per song, $10 for an album. But I don’t feel like talkin’ ’bout it anymore. I WANT TO TALK ABOUT THE IPOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THAT THING ROCKS!ROCKS!ROCKS!ROCKS!

    You know I haven’t remembered to start the desktop-webcam software? Well here you go, I started it back up. Of course the only one I can make work is the PC’s webcam, but it will be OK. Won’t it?
       I noticed while I was putting the picture up that it wasn’t the picture I thought I had. I’ll have to take another I guess…

    ENJOY WATCHING ME WORK ON THE PC!!!

    That’s right, I got it!!!

    Tuesday, April 22nd, 2003

    That’s right, I got it!!! In fact, I got it as were
    going to the beach. I also got a game for it: The Legend of Zelda, A link to the past. It’s cool (the game and the SP).
       The beach trip was nice. It was freezing cold most of the time (because of the wind). But on Monday (the day we left) it was pretty nice and me, Grandpa, and my dad played tennis. It was fun. Colin was in the indoor pool most of the time we were there. We played mini golf and Dad won. It was fun anyways.
       Well it was fun, but I missed my computers :-( I think I should have a laptop. I want a Mac and PC laptop. I didn’t miss the pc THAT much but I’ve started to grow fond of it after getting Windows 2000. By the way if you want to be brave and try Linux, try buying a copy of Knoppix. It doesn’t touch your computer, it boots from the cd. Isn’t that cool?! Unfortunatly, it does not work for Mac. In fact, I’ve had trouble burning it to CD from the iMac. There’s a new version of w.bloggar, so I’ll have to get it after I finsh this blog.
       I really like blogging, it gives you a place to talk about whatever. This is my thoughts and mine alone. It’s like a diary, except its online and everyone can see it. It gives me a place to let out my anger of Windows out. Eventhough after getting Windows 2000, it is looking pretty nice. I guess its just I got this Dell with Windows 98 and it crashed so much. Leo Laporte (host of Call for Help and The Screen Savers) got a lawn mower. He was thinking about either getting a pc or mac laptop and settled on a lawn mower. “Nothin runs like a Deere”.

    Have I mentioned how sta…

    Have I mentioned how stable Windows 2000 is compared to 98? I have not yet been able to kill it (besides software installs…). Grandma and Granpa Tremmel are here. We will be going to the beach from Friday to Monday(4 whole days without a computer!!!!). It will be fun.

    Let me fill you in.

    Tuesday, April 8th, 2003

    Let me fill you in. Here is the defintion of a blog:

    On a Web site, a blog, a short form for weblog, is a personal journal that is frequently updated and intended for general public consumption. Blogs generally represent the personality of the author or the Web site and its purpose. Topics sometimes include brief philosophical musings, commentary on Internet and other social issues, and links to other sites the author favors. The essential characteristics of the blog are its journal form, typically a new entry each day, and its informal style. The author of a blog is often referred to as a blogger. People who post new journal entries to their blog may often say they blogged today, they blogged it to their site, or that they still have to blog. For more information, see weblog.
