Microsoft announced their new product today called “Surface”. I’d say it is a little ahead of its time yet, but could be useful for certain applications. A product like this has to be 100% bug free and work flawless to be placed in public places for use by average people. It can’t scare off folks that aren’t used to technology, or it will end up hurting your business rather than helping it. A restaurant application looked really neat for order drinks, desserts, and especially for paying for your meals. If it works well it could attract people in simply for the novelty of it. Microsoft surface will have a future, but it won’t be overnight.

Did you know that Windows XP comes with a free command line defrag tool? It sure does, it is really easy to use. Simply get to a command prompt (click on Start ->� Run, and type cmd in the box.). Then to defragment the C: drive you would type defrag C:

Now if you want to schedule it to run, make a quick batch file by opening up notepad.exe (Start -> run -> notepad.exe). Type your command into notepad defrag C: save the file as mydefrag.bat

Then go into your task scheduler and choose your batch file as the item to schedule.

Very cool Jeep JT concept.

What a great site.

This site has an insane amount of great sound clips from the TV Show “The Office”. You can search by episode, character, even by text, and length of clip. This is a great collection. I’m sure you could find a great ring tone in there too. (I did)

Make sure you check all your code before you go to print!

Isn’t the internet tube a great thing!

Have to jump on the band wagon. This was my favorite image about the great HD DVD code crack fiasco!
