I added a link to another Blogger, my cousin Tom Kittrick.
His should be interesting, as he's going to be leaving the United States, to live in Indonesia. His blog is called Selamut Datang BATAM. Batam Indonesia is where he will be living.

Time to vent!!!
Ok, here's a Pet Peeve post:
Me: What's on the screen?
User: Nothing.
Me: So, the screens black? Did the power go out?
User: No, there's stuff on the screen.
Me: What kind of stuff?
User: Icons, Start...
Me: So you can see the Desktop.
User: Yea, and there's a message.
Me: Did that just pop up or was it there when I asked what was on the screen?
User: It was there, I didn't know you wanted to know that.
Me: What does the message say?
User: Something about an error.
Me: Ok, I want to help you fix that error, but first I need to know exactly what the error message says.
User: Oh, it says that file xxxxxxx.yyy can't be found.
Me: Ok, I will send a copy of that file. Just to speed things along, can you read me any messages or errors that pop up, especially if I ask, 'What's on the screen.'
User: Why do I have to do everything?!

Developers, make your life easier!
I'm raving about a new piece of software, Process Explorer. It's like Task Manager, but much better. It shows you each process, in a process tree. But you can change the View, to have a Lower Pane (window) with the DLLs that the process is using. Very cool.
Anything Sys Internals does is awesome. They really make tools developers can benefit from.
