Re: Hard Drives: What a difference 20 years makes.

I don't relate so much to memory capacity...but what a difference 37 years makes: My first "computer": an IBM Mag card typewriter introduced in 1973 with an 8000 character memory. Two of us in the FBI's San Diego field office secretarial pool got these. Lucky me. http://www.etypewriters.co...

Re: Hunting the Bandit Snails

I'm doing my part and I've done fairly well so far, the bandit snails are the ones underneath the banded snails.

Re: Geek help ASAP please!

Thanks, Beth, but I'm not that concerned about it. A tiny little blog like mine in the midst of the billions of pages on the internet isn't going to amount to anything--can't imagine anyone with evil designs would give a second thought to mine. I'm just going to see how it goes for a bit. Blogger gi...

Re: Geek help ASAP please!

I set up a blog which is working very well and I'm pleased with it; however, I quickly realized the photos I was posting of artwork were going to be archived each month. I could create a "gadget" where I could say: Click here to see more of my colored pencil artwork, with "here" ...

Re: Geek help ASAP please!

Actually, the site I needed it for uses another code--didn't matter anyway. I was trying to link to a photo album and it won't let me because the album is "private." Going to have to think about this...do I really want every photo I take floating around on PhotoBucket (even though I don't ...

Geek help ASAP please!

It's been so long since I've done this that I've completely forgotten how: When I want to post a link to something but not show the entire link in the post, how do I name it something else? For instance, if I wanted to post a very long link to a magazine article, how do I hide the link with "cl...

Re: Geeks or others: How do I start a website?

To this day my older brother has a jagged scar on his forehead where he was whacked by a neighborhood kid swinging a sythe. Ouch!

(Actually the photo is cut off just a bit high--in the original piece you can see his left shoe and a bit more of the sythe.)

I knew it was a sythe. Thought those that said "big stick" were kidding. Oops.

Re: Geeks or others: How do I start a website?

Thanks, Davy. :) I got a blogger.com site set up. It'll take some getting used to... at least I'm making a start!

Thanks for all the suggestions.

Re: Geeks or others: How do I start a website?

I don't know...I'm a little concerned about emailing stuff and depending on somebody else to put it where it belongs, in the way I want it. Say somebody at posterous has a bad day, gets laid off, etc. and decides to have a little fun: voila! I've got p0rn all over my page. Or they edit some text I w...

Re: Geeks or others: How do I start a website?

John, I like that website--plus, I want to bring my dog there! A veterinarian's office where we kenneled my old dog actually "cared" for him so badly that he died within a couple of weeks. Been scared to have my latest dog kenneled ever since then. Your place looks wonderful! Congrats, I l...
