Portable apps? Do one better with MojoPac!

Posted by Pete on October 18th, 2006

I’ve played around with portable apps! Any geek in their rightful mind loves the idea of carrying portable apps like Firefox Portable, NVU Portable, Abiword Portable, etc.. and the list goes on.
But MojoPac seems to do all that even better! Easy installation into your USB drive, iPod or portable usb hard drive, it loads like a windows installation and you have all your favorite apps right there, including Microsoft Office, Photoshop, Firefox w/all your bookmarks, My Documents, Instant Messengers and even GAMES!!
All this can run as a virtual machine alongside the host computer’s applications when plugged in, and when you’re done, no footprint left behind.

Very cool indeed, first I’ve heard of it but I’m sure it’s been around for a bit.

MojoPac can turn any USB 2.0 compliant portable storage device, including your iPod, or your USB flash or hard drives, into your Personal Computer - your MojoPac PC.

I know a few people who can use this, including myself!

Dog saves Owner and Dies going back into fire for Cat

Posted by Pete on October 17th, 2006

A sad story I’ve ready today, a dog(Jesse) saves a disabled woman by helping her get out of a burning house, hears the cat crying in the house and goes back in to save it, not listening to the owner’s calling to come back. Both cat and dog die in the fire.

“And he jumped onto a table that had a candle on it and tipped it over and lighted the artificial plants on fire,” she said.
Hanson said she fell off the couch and was unable to get her artificial leg from the table, “so my dog got my leg for me and went and got the phone and brought the phone to me so I could call 911.”

Quit Smoking and see the benefits happen Right Now!

Posted by Pete on October 12th, 2006

I found this to be an interesting post about the benefits of quitting smoking (if you’re a smoker) right now. Shows the immediate timeline starting from 20 minutes from the time you’ve had your last cigarette to 15years. Just a small timeline, worth the read.

I think one of the main reasons it’s so hard to quit smoking is because all the benefits of quitting and all the dangers of continuing seem very far away. Well, here’s a little timeline about some of the more immediate effects of quitting smoking and how that will affect your body RIGHT NOW.

Google combines the best of 2 Office worlds today

Posted by Pete on October 11th, 2006

Google just integrated Writely and Spreadsheets into “Docs & Spreadsheets”. Better off this way in my opinion, being able to access either from a single page makes things run a bit smoother.
Writely.com now redirects to the new location.
