The cost of leaving your PC on

Posted by Brian On February - 18 - 2007

“Between my server and my Windows Media Center home theater PC, I have at least two PCs on all the time at home. Have you ever wondered how much it’s costing you to leave a computer on 24 hours a day, 7 days a week?”

A Must for Anyone Who Listens to the Radio

Posted by Brian On February - 18 - 2007

As an avid music listener and self proclaimed music afficianado, I avidly use the website Yes.com. This site is well past due, and a must for anyone who has ever listened to the radio and has gotten agry at the DJ for not telling us the name or artist of the song that is playing. This site does just that. You can type in your zip code, city and state, or the station call letters and you can see what they are playing now, have played or look at the archives and see what they have played in previous days. Take a look at the screenshots:

Another great feature is that you can call a number and vote for the song, then you can go to the website and see the song you bookmarked, plus it links to the iTunes music store if you want to purchase the song. You can also create a web banner to include on your site with your favorite radio station, then your viewers can see what is playing on your favorite radio station.

I highly recommend that you visit their site and sign up.

Just an Update

Posted by Brian On February - 18 - 2007

So as you all have seen, I haven’t posted in about a month. I have been really busy with life and everything else, I have let my blog slip, even though I have been borrowing posts from my friends at Lifehacker. I hope to get back into the swing of things and start posting on a regular basis.
