Lost Screen Grabs January 12, 2006 1:24 pm
Posted by Doug McCaughan in : Lost, Of InterestThese are spoilers if you missed last night’s Lost episode. I thought I saw a single image in Eko’s encounter with the monster. Boy was I wrong! These are frame by frame grabs of the encounter. Is the monster somehow passing judgment?
I can’t get enough!

Bellsouth’s Privacy Director January 12, 2006 11:48 am
Posted by Doug McCaughan in : Daily Life, TechnologyGood information on Bellsouth’s Privacy Director I love the service but for about 2 months now I’ve had a recorded message trying to get me to talk to someone. Their poor system thinks someone is answering the phone but Privacy Director cuts them off before the recording identifies itself. No human ever calls. It’s laughable but they call everyday.
Privacy Director gives a recorded messages to callers that are anonymous asking that the caller identify themselves (much like you would with a collect call). The phone rings at the house and after listening to the brief recording I have 3 options: take the call, reject sales call (gives the caller a no solicitation message), or reject the call. It drastically cut down on phone solicitations!

Posted by Doug McCaughan in : Programming, TechnologyProgrammers need to review this tech tip explaining how to use the FireFox User Agent Switcher extension to access member only areas of some websites. Effectively you simply add “Googlebot 2.1″ to the description and user agent.

Posted by Doug McCaughan in : Programming, TechnologyYes! ColdFusion jumps to position 16 in the TIOBE Programming Community Index for January 2006! In January 2005 it was position 25 which isn’t too shabby in my book.
