Mobile Tech in Action
This weekend, I’m attending my second Dallas WordCamp, a local event that showcases not just the amazing WordPress blogging system, but things you can do to make you a better blogger, designer, and community builder. I attended my first WordCamp last year and I had an absolute blast. I felt very at home in an auditorium full of mostly techy geeks–many of them even geekier than me in some ways! I sat in a sea of mostly MacBooks and MacBook …
The Dell Mini 9 Countdown Begins!
Yesterday I pulled the trigger on a new Dell Mini 9. I am so jazzed to get it, but there is only one problem–it won’t be here until somewhere around April 24!! I already sold my Eee PC 701 to a friend, and now I face an empty, cold three weeks without a tiny laptop to keep me warm. I have taken to poring over the My Dell Mini forums for tips, tricks, and planning my Hackintosh netbook journey in …
My Daily Tech: Jessica
One of my favorite tech memes is “What’s In Your (Gear) Bag?”, where geeks empty their messenger bags, backpacks, and purses to show off the things they carry with them on a daily basis. I also really enjoy reading about the gear that fellow techies use to enrich their lives–their main computer, their travel items, their phone, their mp3 player, etc. I’ve shared my own stuff in various formats before (I am an avid member of the “What’s In Your …
Windows XP and the eeePC – Fab or Flop?
I love Linux. It’s so customizable, and I love the fact that it’s open-source. But let’s face it–the business community has yet to embrace Linux with open arms. Many of the things I do for work, whether it’s editing or creating a templatized document, or doing a quality check on a web-based training course, require Windows (or at the very least, Microsoft products such as Office). It is frustrating, considering the only place I run Windows is at the office. …
Compiz Fusion on the eeePC
Ever since installing Ubuntu on my 4G eeePC 701, I’ve been incredibly impressed by the operating system. It’s my first time running a Linux system full-time, and I find more to love about it every day. One of the most impressive things in Ubuntu is Compiz Fusion, which adds some incredible graphic effects to the user environment, including a rotating cube and other window/desktop switchers on crack. Sadly, I’ve been unable to run it on the eeePC because turning on …

The newest model of Asus’ popular eeePC sub-notebook computer is set to drop in the United States on May 12 for $549.
