Mindful Musings

I have been wanting to get some of my thoughts down into my blog but just have not had the opportunity, nor the time to deal with them. I really felt the need to categorize some of the ideas a little better, in other words, add usability to my own thoughts. That is the reason I added the categories back to my page. Let me tell you, text editing a complex PHP script at 0.5 kbps is a pain to say the least. But I got it done.
I found a couple of very interesting sites on the internet about usability. I cant find it right now. I should have it at home. I will re-do this part of the post then.
Here is a little bit of information about changing your Ethernet MAC address in a Windows machine (for educational purposes only). It is interesting and so simple that it should be outlawed.
I found another interesting article on Slashdot about the College Freshman that built a Fusion Reactor. With my Physics background, this is extremely interesting and definitely worth a mention.
I finally broke down and decided to subscribe to Emusic.com They have a very good selection of music and are worth a look-see. They charge $15 for a month and minimum sign up time is three months. They have ALL of George Carlin’s works on MP3s. I have to mention here that the bitrates of all their MP3s are very high (384kbps mostly) and they produce very good CDs. You can burn unlimited CDs with their music and there are very little restrictions unlike other music services online. I really like their service. PS: They have a 14 day eval period. Check them out sometime!
