Technology Makes Me Happy.

Technology Makes Me Happy.

If this makes me a dork or a geek, then so be it! I LOVE TECHNOLOGY! lol

So, my COOL TECHNOLOGY TID-BITS FOR TODAY ARE.....

1) Ubuntu - Ubuntu is a free OS (Operating System) by Linux. The program is of course open source and very customizable. I instilled this operating system on my laptop and it runs wonderfully. My newly acquired laptop had Windows Vista on it, which wasn't doing too much for me so I formatted it and put Windows XP on it and Ubuntu. I have been using Ubuntu and will most likely format it again soon to get rid of Windows XP.

With a program called Wine for Linux I can run my windows programs on my Ubuntu system. THIS MAKES ME HAPPY! It is basically a emulator for Windows programs.

2) Google Phone, or Gmail Phone or whatever you call it. - Basically Google has created something else that I'm a full fledge fan for. It is a VoIP phone kind of like Voyage, but for free (When making calls within your own country). I signed up for the free service today and set-up a phone number which I got to chose. You can make outbound calls directly from your computer via he web-based application or take incoming calls to your Google Phone Number which is directed to a land-line or cell phone service which you specify in the setup process.

So yeah, this has been my random blog. If it doesn't make sense it is because I went a little a.d.d while writing this. See ya blogger.
