Lawrence XVII (Eric Doyle on Heroes)!

It went great! We had a decent amount of people in the chat listening and asking questions. David was a great guest!

It was a slight pricey for my budget, but I wanted to do something nice for myself that I’ve wanted to do for a long time. I’ve already taken some really nice photos with it.

So. In an effort to reinvigorate my blog (and my life) I’ve decided to try to start posting one photo that I’ve taken every single day. My initial goal is to do this for one whole month, and then work up from there. So, following this short little post, you’ll get your first glimpse at my attempt to become a real photographer. ;)

Enjoy!

Now, I don’t know when it happened, but I’m certainly not complaining.

I was over at Technomoney.net a moment ago, and was reading one of Ruchir’s previous posts about his update to a PR4, and I remembered that the last time I had checked (months ago), EricSocia.net still had a pagerank of zero. So, for the hell of it, I went on over to prchecker.info and inputted my url, and BANG! I’m informed that my site has a PR2

While this may not be extremely exciting to anybody else, I’m ecstatic. In fact, it makes me want to keep this website running for another year once this years registration is up. Who knows? Maybe this will work out after all. Now all I need to do is figure out what to do with the site.

I’m sure I’ll figure something out eventually. Have a great day everyone!

I recently had some problems with my Ubuntu 7.10 installation on my HP Pavillion. I therefore decided to bite the bullet and just wipe it clean and dual-boot Vista and Ubuntu. I was, however, worried that I would encounter a bunch of problems in doing so, since I seem to be so prone to that kind of thing. To my delightful suprise, however, I ran into absolutely zero issues, and the installation for both Vista and then the secondary installation of Ubuntu 7.10 went completely smooth. Both OS’s are running perfectly and I’m thoroughly enjoying the fact that I can now boot into whichever one I like, depending on my needs at the time.
For instance, Ubuntu does not currently have support for syncing my particular Windows Mobile 6 Pocket PC, but Windows Vista does so without a hitch. On the other hand, Vista is fairly bulky and not as customizable as Ubuntu. Linux is, in my opinion, much more fun to use anyway. I love being able to easily find and install, or compile from source, completely free applications that were created by everyday people like myself. And yet, Windows operating systems are the target OS for tons and tons of PC video games that I’d love to try out. Sure, I could run Windows apps and games in VirtualBox from within Ubuntu, but that uses a lot more memory than simply booting into Windows and running those programs/games right inside their native OS.
In any case, I just wanted to point out to everyone that it certainly IS possible to dual-boot Windows Vista AND Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy Gibbon) without ANY problems whatsoever. I’ve done it, and you can, too. :)
