Registrar and Hosting Switch From GoDaddy Plus Shameless Plug For Dropbox Storage

~2 min read

So if you haven’t been following the geek news lately, I’ll sum it up for you. GoDaddy is a big jerk company that supports SOPA, helped to draft SOPA, and is exempt from SOPA. SOPA is the worst thing to ever happen to the internet, including goatse.cx. It would restrict our freedom of speech and allow pretty much anyone to take down a domain at the drop of a hat (complaint hat). So I encourage everyone to get off of GoDaddy, boycott GoDaddy, and boycott any company that supports SOPA. Oh and apparently the CEO hunts elephants, which I am also against. I found this out while searching for a good anti-GoDaddy image to post up (thanks Boycott GoDaddy Facebook Group!).

Pro Tip - Add your Wii Games To Your Steam List

~2 min read

If you’re like me, you ditched your Wii in favor of a pure emulation solution once you realized you could play your legally purchased disks in full 1080p emulated using the Dolphin Wii/GameCube emulator. It’s fast as crap, improves the graphics, and is free. Plus the ability to save my disks as .ISO files and play them at my leisure is a time saver. One thing that I’ve gotten used to on the PC is playing PC games from Steam, and I’m looking forward to their new 10 foot living room view. So I decided to put them together. Turns out it’s not that hard. Read on for the mini-tutorial.

Easy Inventory - Now Open Source on Sourceforge!

~1 min read

Yep that’s right. I’ve had a few requests to open source Easy Inventory (the first Android app I ever wrote) since I released it back at the beginning of June. As I’ve been insanely busy at my new job (converting iPad apps to Android apps), I’ve not had much time for feature improvements or bug fixes. Seeing how Easy Inventory is currently making me about 3 bucks a month in Adsense revenue, I see no financial harm in converting it to an open source project. It also jives rather well with my socialist tendencies. Plus it’s been a while since I threw a project up on SourceForge, and I’d like to see what folks can come up with.

Easter Eggs!

~1 min read

Almost all of my programs have hidden “easter eggs” in them. From screensavers to morse code generators I’ve put some weird ones in. Well now my website has a few! One is pretty easy to find, but the rest… quite a challenge I’m sure. Happy Hunting!
