I am in the process of launching a new blog called vista.geekyinfo.
In the lead up to the release of Microsoft Vista operating system there will be many post worthy information and I will be interested in them all. So, I have decided to document what I am reading and interested in.
For some of the more […]
Preston Gralla, author of Internet Annoyances has a post that may go somewhere to solve the problems I envisaged when I get a tablet pc. The idea of going back to two computers was making me nervous as I simply love the simplicity of having everything I work with, and the way I like it […]
I was most distressed four days after buying my new computer to find that my “d” key was not working properly. It seems in the geekyinfo family that laptop keyboard keys are destined to go caput early as the same thing happened with Phil’s short lived Dell. With two geeks living in the […]
Buzz posts on how he attempted to contact me in order to demonstrate skype to a group of people. Perhaps inadvertantly he demonstrated one of the missing features of skype – a silent mode
“Sleeping wife next to me :)”
Earlier today during the closing session at High-TECC, I was demonstrating the power of Skype to the […]
My phone contract was up, and so it was time for a new phone. I chose the treo 650 and so far I am very impressed. I used to have a xda2 and I just found the phone/pda integration clunky. It is possible that this feeling was because I was also making the leap from […]

My trusty Sony Vaio notebook died on the way back from Perth. The technical guys upon looking at it, reckon that it died due to a drink spill. I must admit I did spill a glass of red wine on the keyboard about 18 months ago, but I can’t remember spilling anything on it since. […]
Sorry about the lack of posting. On my way back from Western Australia I attempted to fire up my notebook only to find it dead as a dodo.
I am the midst of setting up my new notebook and I will be bring some posts about my experience.
Almost there… now have blogjet back up and running, […]
Tomorrow, I (Phil) am heading over to Perth in Western Australia for three days. So, posting will be a bit lighter as I probably will not have access to the net.
I have scheduled some posts to keep the site ticking over.
This list will probably need to be republished quite often as I am often changing and playing around with new tools and toys. I guess I am on that search for information management utopia and I never quite get there. In fact I think the area in which software needs to dramatically improve is the […]
