Multi-task bar

Tuesday, March 30th, 2004 (4 years, 6 months ago)

The taskbar on my computer is three times the height of the default height and it’s completely full. I have a total of twenty-five windows open right now. That’s not even counting a bunch of the programs that I have minimized to the system tray.

I don’t like to use the back button, so I just keep opening new windows for links and before I know it, I have about fifteen windows open on my screen. I’m really making the most out of my gigabyte of RAM…

Work related note: I’m always trying to design and make functions work easily for newer computer users, but I don’t think that I act anything like them when I browse the web or work. I hope I don’t start over-looking aspects that I find easy, but others might find confusing when working on my next project.

Free psychic phone calls

Sunday, March 28th, 2004 (4 years, 6 months ago)

My girlfriend is coming over today, but she wasn’t sure when she could. So I randomly called her a few minutes ago and asked if she was coming (slightly joking because I thought she wasn’t coming for another three hours). She says she’s getting dressed and will be leaving in ten minutes.

I call her back a few minutes later to remind her to bring some things (we’re cooking and someone forgot some stuff a few days ago). And before I could start talking, she already knows why I called and starts/finishes my sentence.

I call witch! Burn her!

Usability whining

Sunday, March 28th, 2004 (4 years, 6 months ago)

I stumbled on a website for a design company that boasts an impressive client list and offers services such as usability evaluations, usability testing, design, etc.

Later, I tried to visit their website again by typing their address in my browser. I didn’t include the “www.” in the beginning because I’m lazy and I’ll take any shortcuts I can get. I’m presented with a nice “Site Not Found” page.

Being the super detective that I am, I figured out that their website doesn’t load unless you include the “www.” in the beginning. I found that kind of annoying and a bit weird that a usability consultant company would make their website so… not usable.

What’s my point? My point is give me your money, I just bought a 160Gb hard drive.

Full of it

Monday, March 22nd, 2004 (4 years, 6 months ago)

People just won’t stop with the McDonald’s hating! Every single day, I read something about them and how much they suck.

The latest news is about how their salad (dressing) has more fat than a cheeseburger. At least the salad will be enough for most people to get rid of their hunger. Who ever heard of someone buying a single cheeseburger from McDonalds?

Seriously, ask someone to tell you how much a single cheeseburger costs. Most people who are getting fat off of fast food have no clue how much a single cheeseburger costs because they’re too busy buying the Big Mac and fries.

I hate to turn this into an all food discussion website, but I-Hate-McDonald’s articles are being publicized a lot more than anything with a shred of political information.

Pinch me (The Barenaked Ladie’s song, not the post title)

Wednesday, March 17th, 2004 (4 years, 6 months ago)

I didn’t wear green today, so Annie said she’s going to pinch me when she sees me (which won’t be for over a week). I tried to tell her that she can pinch me if she wants to pinch me for the hell of it, but not because I wasn’t wearing green on St. Patrick’s Day. You don’t get rain checks for pinches!

I bet The Incredible Hulk never had to have that conversation with his girlfriend.
