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 …

Pimping my Mini (already)

[image]

My Apple decals arrived today in the mail, so you know I had to make my pretty Mini even prettier (though I am sure John from Dell is probably dying a little inside, sorry John!).  The rainbow stickers from icolours.ca were cute, but they were too small and also too thin to cover the Dell logo.  No real loss, they were cheap, they’re still cute, and I already put one of the two I purchased on my WD Passport drive …

So far, I’ve decided on a Hoodie Laptop Case by Built NY.  I really love …

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 …

Trading up from the Eee PC

Before too long, I am going to be saying goodbye to my precious Eee PC 701 netbook.  I can still remember how excited I was when the delivery guy brought it into my office and I opened it for the first time–it was so SMALL!  It has served me well for a little over a year, but it is time for me to upgrade to something that fits my needs a little bit better. Honestly, if I had known how …
