Windows 7 Screenshots

Almost certainly faked, but some interesting ideas. I love the first one on the left. Presently in Vista the only window which is has its entire area transparent is the Gadgets chooser. I love this look and so the idea of all Explorer windows looking the same way is a great way to go, if you ask me.
Found here.

When John isn’t depressed he’s actually pretty funny. And the new album is, for me, the best since Whenever We Wanted. Go you, John. ( ’cause you’re TOTALLY reading this blog!!)
A Few Days Off

I took off yesterday and today. Ahhhh slacking. In sweats. Unbeatable.
HD TV
July 25, 2008
So this week I got in Sky HD TV. There aren’t that many actual HD channels and a lof of what there are included are sports/movies which I don’t subscribe to anyway. But there are some National Geographic type things.
Soooooooo, I find myself the other day leaving on footage of a cow in a field. Pretty sun, nice flowers, grazing cow. You get the idea. I sit watching this damn cow for maybe fifteeen minutes, because, damn it, it’s a Hi Def cow, not just your everyday ordinary TV cow!
Of course, I live in the country so I can look out my kitchen window and see a whole bunch of cows in the hills behind me, but that wouldn’t be getting my monies worth out of my HD set!
(To make myself feel better I have somehow convinced myself that the other, non HD channels are actually clearer too. It comforts me somewhat when there are no cows on.)
